Fullstack- Node JS

YOptima is a well capitalized digital startup pioneering full funnel marketing via programmatic media. YOptima is trusted by leading marketers and agencies in India and is expanding its footprint globally.

We are expanding our tech team and looking for a prolific Staff Engineer to lead our tech team as a leader (without necessarily being a people manager). Our tech is hosted on Google cloud and the stack includes React, Node.js, AirFlow, Python, Cloud SQL, BigQuery, TensorFlow.

If you have hands-on experience and passion for building and running scalable cloud-based platforms that change the lives of the customers globally and drive industry leadership, please read on.

1. You have 6+ years of quality experience in building scalable digital products/platforms with experience in full stack development, big data analytics and Devops.
2. You are great at identifying risks and opportunities, and have the depth that comes with willingness and capability to be hands-on. Do you still code? Do you love to code? Do you love to roll up your sleeves and debug things?
3. Do you enjoy going deep into that part of the 'full stack' that you are not an expert of?

Responsibilities:

• You will help build a platform that supports large scale data, with multi-tenancy and near real-time analytics.
• You will lead and mentor a team of data engineers and full stack engineers to build the next generation data-driven marketing platform and solutions.
• You will lead exploring and building new tech and solutions that solve business problems of today and tomorrow.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent discipline.
• Excellent computer systems fundamentals, DS/Algorithms and problem solving skills.
• Experience in conceiving, designing, architecting, developing and operating full stack, data-driven platforms using Big data and cloud tech in GCP/AWS environments.

What you get: Opportunity to build a global company. Amazing learning experience. Transparent work culture. Meaningful equity in the business.

At YOptima, we value people who are driven by a higher sense of responsibility, bias for action, transparency, persistence with adaptability, curiosity and humility. We believe that successful people have more failures than average people have attempts. And that success needs the creative mindset to deal with ambiguities when you start, the courage to handle rejections and failure and rise up, and the persistence and humility to iterate and course correct.

1. We look for people who are initiative driven, and not interruption driven. The ones who challenge the status quo with humility and candor.
2. We believe startup managers and leaders are great individual contributors too, and that there is no place for context free leadership.
3. We believe that the curiosity and persistence to learn new skills and nuances, and to apply the smartness in different contexts matter more than just academic knowledge.
