You may have heard the joke that data is the new oil, believe it or not, but we are fueling the entire company:)
You will be a part of the Data Squad, responsible for collecting, structuring, and storing huge amounts of data, ~400M new mentions in social media daily. That's one of our four product squads, and it consists of 3 back-end engineers and 1 tech support at this moment.
● What would be my responsibilities if I apply?
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
─ You will expand data collection for major social platforms, make it faster and more cost-effective.
─ We also consider you to improve our crawlers, make them smarter, but still predictable. You'll work on ranking & discovery mechanisms.
─ You will dive deep into various small and large social platforms to understand their mechanics and opportunities to get more value for our clients.
─ You will participate in architectural discussions, write clean code, and deploy it to production (we deploy many times a day).
─ We also expect you to support your code running in production — proper monitoring with metrics, logs, and alerts will be your friend.
● What's your stack and tools?
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
We use C# as our main language, always relying on async IO and utilizing TPL DataFlow for complicated processing pipelines.
Microservices are hosted on Azure. We extensively use Azure Queues and Tables Services for communication and storage, and Redis when needed.
We're mostly using .NET Core and Docker Swarm, write our Infrastructure as a code, run it with Terraform. We use Jenkins for build and deploy.
We love predictability: metrics on Prometeus + ELK for logs, alerts integration to Slack.
Oh, and Fiddler and TestDriven code runner are our daily tools as well.
● Sounds good, what's your requirements?
