Role

Who you are

  • The ideal candidate has worked as a software engineer in a professional, team based environment, with some exposure or demonstrated passion for XP practices such as pair programming and test driven development
  • They are comfortable as a full stack developer, and have expertise in at least one modern programming language and application framework
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills as well as empathy are essential for working closely with the development team, customers, and others at Mechanical Orchard

What the job involves

  • Work as part of small, cross functional XP teams building production applications for customers or for Mechanical Orchard using Elixir or other modern programming languages
  • Pair program with other engineers and collaborate closely with other roles such as product managers and designers
  • Apply and evolve XP engineering practices such pair programming, test-driven development, refactoring, continuous integration and continuous delivery
  • Operate and support production applications as a team in the context of the agile DevOps model
  • Help onboard client developers and/or new Mechanical Orchard team members with practices and techniques

  • Continuously learn about relevant emerging technologies or practices and foster the growth of the organization through mentorship, tech talks, and other means

Our take

Overhauling existing systems can be a massive undertaking, especially for larger businesses, and especially when these systems manage business-critical functions. That said, it has become a vital move in order to respond to the more fast-paced markets of today, enabling legacy companies to keep a competitive edge.

Mechanical Orchard is a company leveraging AI to replicate, test, evolve and manage critical systems in the cloud. Essentially, its approach means businesses can modernize their legacy systems more quickly and safely by ensuring critical systems stay online throughout the process of moving to the cloud, and giving visibility into the effects of any changes.

Early in 2024, the company raised $24 million in Series A funding which will be invested in R&D as well as support the development of a global sales and marketing program. As digital transformation accelerates, Mechanical Orchard should benefit from increasing enterprise demand. It already serves large customers including logistics giant Omni Logistics.
