What the job involves
- The Nova team is building a “single pane of glass” for investigators. The purpose is to connect the investigator to the many disparate sources of data they already have access to in order to make it easier to “connect the dots” and build a picture around their case work. The technical challenges to enable these tools are diverse and sophisticated
- The team needs another strong engineer to collaborate and contribute to the product as well as build stronger bindings to the overall Flock Software Platform. Our engineers work directly with our customers and are able to react with high value and often real life impacting results
- Flock believes that many facets of our work are “Better Together” and that infuses how we think about the various products we offer as well as how we work together individually and collectively. This provides a vast opportunity to work across multiple teams and skillsets and not only elevate the company but our engineers as well
- The First 30 Days - Understand how and contribute in “Flock” way
- Meet with stakeholders
- Understand your role on the team
- Understand current processes and procedures (aka the Flock way)
- Have contributed or know how to contribute code to all repos owned by your team
- Asking questions in a public way to understand and spread knowledge; i.e., public slack channels, etc
- The First 60 Days - Get comfortable with influencing the teams
- Be able to perform the role with a decreased need for guidance
- Be able to complete ownership of medium-sized tasks with little support
- Possess a high-level understanding of the features we are working on
- Understand the software design philosophies being used
- Comfortable navigating through all owned code bases
- Engaged during technical conversations to increase the quality of input
- Building strong relationships with your team members
- 90 Days & Beyond - Establish your ownership of your work
- Demonstrating strong communication skills and owning the full lifecycle of your work
- Comfortable picking up engineering tasks of larger size and more ambiguity
- Communicating across multiple teams to solve problems efficiently
- Contributing ideas for how we build better software
- Be on at least 1 customer call within your 90 days
- Have a sense of where you want to grow at Flock
Application process
- We want our interview process to be a true reflection of our culture: transparent and collaborative. Throughout the interview process, your recruiter will guide you through the next steps and ensure you feel prepared every step of the way
- Our First Chat: During this first conversation, you’ll meet with a recruiter to chat through your background, what you could bring to Flock, what you are looking for in your next role, and who we are
- The Hiring Manager Interview: You will meet with your potential future boss to really dive into the role, the team, expectations, and what success means at Flock. This is your chance to really nerd out with someone in your field
- The Technical Assessment: Our technical assessments seek to test the hard skills required to do the job. Engineers may find themselves in coding interviews or architecture discussions, sales roles may present mock discovery calls, and leadership roles may craft 90 day plans. Your recruiter will inform you of which assessment you will be assigned and ensure you are fully prepared for your big day
- The Design Assessment: Our design assessments seek to test how you approach solutions conceptually from small to large. We expect our senior engineers to be the guards of scope, so they need to be able to push on simplicity when they can but also size confidently when the requirements push for something more sophisticated
- The Panel: Learn more about the team, responsibilities, and workflows. You should be prepared to speak about past projects, how you collaborate and communicate with others, and how you live our values. Depending on the team and role you are interviewing for, you may meet with several teammates as well as cross-functional partners
- The Executive Review: A chance to meet an executive and view Flock from a different lens. Be prepared to ask well-thought-out questions about the company, culture, and more
Our take
Public vehicle surveillance provides valuable insights to emergency services for the prevention of crime, but bringing information together to create leads is difficult. There's no standardised system for inter-city vehicle surveillance, and this makes it difficult for communities and law enforcement services to work together.
Flock Safety provides surveillance equipment that aims to improve the abilities of law enforcement and homeowner associations to communicate data with each other. The company focuses on vehicle surveillance, innovating on existing technology by using machine learning to categorise vehicles by color, license plate, state, and other data points.
Whilst automated surveillance equipment is used daily within federal police forces, Flock Safety builds technology systems that provide a means for smaller law enforcement agencies to quantify and share surveillance data easily. This data can then be automatically processed to help develop leads, a time-consuming process that would usually have to be completed manually.
