Layer | REMOTE (UTC+0 - UTC+5) | FULL-TIME | Senior Backend Engineer/VP of Design/Technical Documentation Manager/VP of Product | https://layer.co Layer is building a machine learning operating system to empower data science teams to implement end-to-end machine learning effortlessly; from feature engineering, version control to model deployment. Layer helps teams to build, train and deploy ML into production at scale. Most importantly, Layer sits on top of your existing data and tech stack and works in your dev environment for you with zero friction. One of our founders sold his previous company at 500M USD, the other is one of the top VC partners in Europe. Our engineering team is a mix of world-class makers from Palantir, Revolut, Google, Improbable, Coinbase, Amazon, among others. Layer has an all remote culture as we aspire to work with the best talent, no matter where they live. We firmly believe that exceptional companies can only be built by exceptional people, who are passionate about their work, grounded, achieve more with less, full of grit, challenge themselves and their team relentlessly to do better, and have radical candor. Our team and culture is paramount to all else. Our tech stack is React/TypeScript on the frontend, Java at the backend (some Scala + Python too), Spark as the underlying computation engine. We use Terraform, AWS, CircleCI, Kubernetes heavily too. We are currently looking for experienced candidates within UTC+0 - UTC+5 timezones, but if you believe you're truly a great fit (built MLOps/ML platforms, have significant open-source contributions to relevant projects, etc) please do apply. Prior startup experience is a plus. Feel free to apply at http://layer.co/job-list.html
