About The Position

Our company was founded in 2006 specializing in all things technical for bus-based public transit systems in the US. This means we design, manufacture, and manage all kinds of different products and features, including driver interfaces, dispatch communications, passenger counters, announcers, GPS tracking, and reporting & data analytics. It also means we build real-time information systems for riders including apps and digital signage found at bus stops. We have relationships with Apple Maps, Google Maps, Transit app, and our work goes out to millions of riders on those platforms. Our product is like air traffic control, but for buses. There are a mix of hardware and software products in this role. We hope this excites you! The US-based division of the company has approximately 60 people, with 15 in the product/engineering department. It's the best of both worlds: small company feel with big company support. We are fully remote with offsites once or twice a year and physical offices that some folks choose to use in Downtown LA & Houston, TX. Our customers are public transit operators. Their customers are the transit riding public, which is often people who have far less than we do. Our job is to Make Transit Work for them. We take this mission very seriously, and to put it bluntly: we want engineers who are here to solve problems and serve customers as our first priority. While this isn't an easy job and we don't do a lot of handholding, our process is flexible and we're interested in constantly delivering value in whatever way works best for the situation at hand. If you want to be challenged with growth opportunities in a small team environment with high autonomy and see your work live on thousands of transit buses nationwide, then we are the team for you. We value engineers who like to ship solutions to problems and aren't afraid to receive direct feedback about why a particular solution may or may not be the best. We value people who enjoy being wrong and learning something new about why in the process, recognizing that the team has something to learn from everyone on it. We value people who challenge & support their peers, pressing them to be better versions of themselves and up-level the team. Recognizing the importance of time-to-market for our business and our users, a sense of optimism and exploration to find solutions and deliver great things with high quality is important. Whether you're hunting through legacy code or writing our latest greenfield product, you'll be tackling big challenges and we're looking for people who love the excitement of delivering to the end user more than anything. This kind of transparency, passion, and professionalism is what makes a world-class engineering team. We are looking for problem solvers, not just people who can write code. If you have experience with writing and maintaining mission critical code and know how deliver reliable well tested code consistently, we are looking for you! As a back end engineer you should have skills and talents necessary to be able to track down and prevent problems while keeping the wider scope of the system in mind. You must also have a clear understand of what good looks like. Much of our code is legacy code and we need talented people to help us strategically decide how to incrementally move forward without disrupting other services.
