what3words | Tech roles | London | Full-time At what3words, we believe it should be as easy as possible to describe locations. We've divided the world into 57 trillion 3m x 3m squares, and named each uniquely using 3 words. Our office is at ///index.home.raft. We're working with postal companies around the world, and we recently integrated into Mercedes cars ("Mercedes, take me to what3words index.home.raft"). Our tech stack is modern, and a playground of different technologies: C++, AWS, Java, Javascript, React, packer, Kubernetes, ElasticSearch, Tableau, Python, PHP. Our C++ core is highly optimised, and compresses our multi-Terabyte DB to around 20Mb to work offline on mobile. We're working on what3words voice search and OCR (show your phone the three words) algorithms. If you want to work in a fast growing, ambitious tech company in London, we have the following permanent roles open: * DevOps Engineer: AWS, ElasticSearch, Kubernetes * Interactive Web Developer: ES6, React, Google Maps API * Software Engineer: Java, Git, REST, AWS, Linux * C/C++ Software Engineer: C, C++, Linux, Networking, Algorithms * Android mobile developer * iOS mobile developer See https://what3words.com/jobs To find out more, or apply, email james -at- what3words -dot- com
