Role
Who you are
- 3+ years of backend development experience
- Expertise in Python (with Django framework experience preferred)
- Strong record of building and delivering web applications
- Expertise in modern infrastructure (Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS, CircleCI, etc.) preferred, but not required
- Understanding and adherence to modern software development practices (Gitflow, continuous integration, peer reviews, etc.)
What the job involves
- We're looking to add a backend engineer to our team
- You'll have an opportunity to have a big impact at this early stage, not only on the core product but also on the culture and direction of the company
- We're looking for someone who's comfortable going outside their comfort zone and wearing many different hats
- Strong experience building web applications is essential; if you've built them from scratch, that's even better
- Design, architect, and build Standard Metrics’ core product as a member of the engineering team
- Take ownership of entire outcomes, and continue to support and grow them through iteration, documentation, and bug fixes (we do not have a QA team)
- Collaborate with the product team in scoping and defining the features that will best help the company achieve the outcomes aligned with our goals and the values we believe in
- Be an active contributor to the company culture and future hiring efforts
Our take
For startups, finding a successful business model and streamlining investors is often the key to building a scalable company. But without early backing from investment organisations and entrepreneurs, many companies fail to get off the ground and don't reach the potential they could have achieved given the right funding.
Standard Metrics (formerly known as Quaestor) is an investment platform for startups and investors in the private capital markets. Using automated data, Standard Metrics is enabling financial transparency between startups and investors and empowering founders to make better decisions when scaling their companies.
Having led successful funding rounds with investors such as 8VC, Alpha Edison, January Capital, and First Trust Capital Partners, Standard Metrics is using the capital gained to further develop its software platform and scale its network of investors and private companies, both domestically and internationally.
