Company mission
To empower teams to build more robust devices with software at scale.
Role
Who you are
- Caring, kind, low ego: other people do better when they work with you
- A backend developer with 5+ years of experience building web applications
- Well versed with, and enthusiastic about Python backends
- Passionate about building good products that deliver value to end users
- Excited to learn more about hardware and embedded software
- Proven experience in building scalable backends in Python (Django, Flask, SQLAlchemy, Celery, PostgreSQL, Clickhouse, TimescaleDB, Redis, AWS, Docker a plus)
What the job involves
- Memfault is seeking a Senior Backend Engineer to join our engineering team. Our tight-knit team manages a platform that stretches from the metal to the cloud and enables millions of devices to work without a hitch
- You'll be working with a team of generalists and on a very large technology stack: we're not the typical web startup. We do everything from SDKs for microcontrollers, to large-scale data pipelining in the backend, to complex custom charting in the frontend
- We're a small but experienced team who has worked at startups, scale-ups, and includes former principal engineers at large tech companies. Our development process encourages and provides training for you to contribute to as many areas of our technology stack as you’re interested in
- Onboard as a backend developer, and over the long term, work on the parts of our huge technology stack and the technical challenges that interest you
- Start with simple, pragmatic solutions and iterate quickly
- Help bring modern development tools & practices to a whole software engineering discipline
- Have a major impact on our product, our infrastructure, our culture and our business
Our take
Memfault is the first IoT reliability platform that empowers teams to build more robust devices with software at scale, optimizing teams’ productivity and boosting collaboration by transforming how developers build and operate IoT and edge devices.
The number of consumer edge-enabled IoT devices is expected to grow to almost 6.5 billion by 2030 (up from 4 billion in 2020). However, as IoT applications and embedded software continue to grow in complexity, Memfault’s platform is becoming an increasingly vital asset for developers wishing to unlock the advancement opportunities afforded to them by tapping into the market.
Recently, the company was acquired by Nordic Semiconductor, marking a pivotal moment in its evolution. Now, part of a global leader in low-power wireless connectivity, Memfault is at the centre of a full-stack solution that brings hardware, software and cloud services together. As edge AI and security demands grow, this move strengthens Memfault's ability to support reliable, secure connected products at scale and shapes its role in the future of IoT.
