Ad Hoc Labs Remote
2022-04-21

Software Engineering Intern, Server

Hello. We’re Ad Hoc Labs. We are the makers of Firewall, Dialed, and Burner, one of the top-grossing independent apps in the world. Our mission is to build best-in-class software products that empower our millions of customers with better control of their privacy, communications, and identity, and to do it as a self-sustaining company whose culture and practices we can be proud of.

We are looking for exceptional individuals who can bring their skills and passion to the team. We strive to create excellence in our product and also want it to reflect the personality of our team.

*
What is the Platform team like at Ad Hoc Labs?*
Our Platform team is the core of our customer experience. Each day they work on high volume projects that power our mobile applications. The team is tightly knit and works closely on all aspects of architecting, development, automation, and deployment of the platform. We believe engineers are motivated when they can work autonomously with clear goals and support. We continually focus on improvement in our process to create that environment. Our team members are encouraged to embrace new technologies/frameworks and find the best tool for every problem. We have microservices written in Scala, backed by Postgres and Redis, managed and deployed using Kubernetes. We leverage AWS across the platform, including AWS Lambda and Serverless.

*
Who we’re looking for*
A junior, senior, or recent graduate in computer science or a related technical field who:

  • has completed 2 or more programming courses
  • is eager to learn in a supportive and highly collaborative environment
  • is excited about backend development
  • wants to be involved in the full development lifecycle, including designing, development, testing, and deployment

*
What you’ll be doing*

  • Working with the Platform team and DevOps to build, ship, and monitor production code in a distributed, cloud-based environment
  • Working with the product and mobile teams to develop features and address customer needs

Learning, a lot!

*
Our values*
We believe that a team is more than the sum of its parts. We put the customer experience at the center of all of our projects. We take pride in the work we do and like to have fun doing it. We are always trying to learn – from our customers, from one another, and wherever inspiration lives. We believe people do their best work when they have the authority to succeed, the support to succeed, and clear metrics for success.

During the current pandemic, Ad Hoc Labs is a fully remote company and we anticipate remaining that way for the time being. Candidate needs to be able to maintain a productive remote working environment with access to video quality internet.

_
We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive company and we encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds._
