Backend Engineer (Python)

Want to work on a killer app with a ton of real-time data? Then this is for you. Our backends handle everything from doing complex low-latency real-time telemetry analysis to event indexing and storage to the mundane like handling social graphs. Your work culminates into the way we power our front end apps that drivers use in real-life. Beautiful data visualization, augmented cartography, real-time telemetry, predictive analysis. It's all pretty badass in practice.

You:
