Role

Who you are

  • If you have production scale experience in a different stack (Go, Java, Scala, C#, etc.) and are interested in moving to a new stack, we should chat
  • You're a hands-on developer who gets stuck in, you enjoy solving complex problems and building impactful solutions. Most importantly, you care about making a difference
  • You have a passion for developing your craft — you understand what it takes to build quality, robust and scalable solutions
  • 7+ years of relevant development experience building production grade solutions
  • 5+ years leading design of reliable and scalable APIs
  • Proficient with a high order object oriented language. (especially Python - open to Go, Java, Scala, C# etc)
  • Solid exposure to event driven architectures and high volume data processing
  • Practical exposure of CI/CD pipelines for your production services
  • Familiarity with public cloud service platforms
  • Experience partnering and collaborating with remote teams (across different time zones)
  • Proven track record in learning new technologies and applying that learning quickly
  • Experience building observability and monitoring into applications

Desirable

  • Familiar with containerization and Kubernetes
  • Practical production knowledge of service oriented architectures
  • Experience with streaming technologies. (AWS Kinesis, Kafka, etc)

What the job involves

  • We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer (backend) to help us continue to build the next evolution of our platform in a scalable, performant and customer-centric oriented architecture
  • We are typically organized into agile cross-functional teams composed of Engineering, Product and Design, which allows us to develop deep expertise and rapidly deliver high value features and functionality
  • You’ll be part of a close knit team of Engineers developing the next generation of our T3 Fleet application that enables end-users to track, monitor and manage the health of their connected vehicles and deployed assets
  • Recent initiatives include building connected camera features so that customers can better monitor safety & compliance in vehicles, and improving geofence experience to offer insights about assets within a boundary
  • We'll be there to support you as you become familiar with our teams, product domains, tech stack and processes — generally how we all work together
  • Help design, build and deliver the services and domains that power the platform and its ecosystem — shaping the product features and platform capabilities
  • Take ownership for engineering excellence within your domain — leading by example to guide quality, scale and process improvements
  • Partner with peers, staff and principal engineers to contribute to the technical direction of our product and platform domains
  • Collaborate with Product Managers, Designers and Engineers to take ideas from concept to delivery. Balancing the desire to ship code with the responsibility to get it right
  • Contribute to the product, design and engineering culture improving how we deliver as a team. Helping us to leave things better than we find them and making it easier for us to get stuff done
  • Support, coach and mentor Engineers within our team by sharing your insight, knowledge and experience as we learn and grow together
  • Take the initiative to own outcomes from start to finish — knowing what needs to be accomplished within your domain and how we work together to deliver the best solution
  • You’ll see the learning opportunity when things don’t quite go to plan — not only for you, but for how we continuously improve as a team
  • You take a hypothesis-driven approach — knowing how to source, create and leverage data to inform decision making, using data to drive how we improve, to shape how we evaluate and make platform recommendations
  • Above all, you’ll get stuff done. More importantly, you’ll collaborate to do the right things, in the right way to achieve the right outcomes

Our take

Innovation in automated equipment presents opportunities for increased efficiency for contractors, but this comes at a huge financial cost. Furthermore, whilst this equipment is often highly valuable for the completion of a contractor task, equipment may remain unused for a significant time after task completion.

EquipmentShare provides a telematics platform for contractors called ES Track, a service that facilitates the rental of under-utilized equipment. This is achieved by using the software to determine usage statistics of a piece of equipment, providing insights on financial opportunities a contractor may have in terms of equipment rental.

In addition to presenting itself as the ‘Airbnb of contract equipment’, the company presents further potential by focusing on transforming existing equipment to be fully autonomous. 2023 funding is being used to expand its reach, and in combination with providing rental insights, EquipmentShare’s approach is uniquely focused on finding money-saving opportunities for contractors.
