Smartcar | SF Bay | Full-time | Backend Full Stack Developer

I joined Smartcar a few months ago as Head of BD. When I was looking for my next job, I thought of industries that were going to be very interesting in the next 5 years: VR, insurance, transportation and eSports. Smartcar falls under transportation and touches insurance; these are two massive industries ripe for disruption. Transportation is nearly 10% of US GDP.

Smartcar is building the universal API for the car. We enable developers from their dorm room to multi-billion dollar businesses to build custom applications for cars. For example: developers using our platform can create a service that automatically fuels up a driver's car without the driver even having to know by accessing the telematics in the vehicle.

We're a well funded startup with a 5 person team hailing from Google and LinkedIn looking to add 2 more. Your voice will be heard and you will determine the company’s future technical roadmap.

You will be an excellent generalist who is skilled at multitasking and performs a number of duties, including, but not limited to: - Designing the first ever API for cars. - Building secure and scalable web and API backends. - Integrating with testing, coverage and deployment pipelines. - Designing SQL database schemas, as well as managing backups and migrations. - Instrumenting metrics for tracking API usage. - Working with Node.js, Postgres, Redis, Docker, AWS.
