The role requires an engineer well-grounded in software-engineering fundamentals, experienced in Agile development, and able to make practical business tradeoffs to deliver maintainable, well-constructed and crazy-useful software for our end-users.

  • Actively mentors junior members in both software design and implementation;
  • Participates in Datto's architectural direction, and contributes to the design and implementation of new features and improvements;

  • Utilizes data analytics to evaluate and understand how well the distributed systems are operating;
  • Assists in re-evaluating architectural needs and helps make informed decisions about new technologies that can scale and how to transition legacy systems; and
  • Implements and tests distributed server-side software.

Desired Skills & Requirements:

This position requires at a minimum a Master's degree (or a foreign equivalent degree) followed by two years of software engineering experience, or a Bachelor's degree (or a foreign equivalent degree) followed by five years of progressively responsible software engineering experience. The degree must be in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Information Systems, or a closely related field. The experience, which may be gained concurrently, must have included two years of experience in each of the following:

  • Delivering large-scale end-user facing Software as a Service (SaaS) applications in an Agile environment built on the Ruby on Rails web application framework and using Git for version control;
  • Developing the software using front-end technologies like HTML, CSS and Javascript.
  • Managing large data stores using Cassandra and Redis NoSQL databases, as well as PostgreSQL for querying;
  • Using data analytics tools such as Splunk; and
  • Tuning, analyzing, managing and debugging large, distributed hosted software systems.

A qualified candidate will have excellent knowledge of server side and backend best practices in highly scalable systems, as well as a strong basis in Object Oriented software design.

Here at Datto, our people are our greatest asset, which is why we offer a comprehensive and unique benefits package. Above and beyond the typical medical, dental and vision, we also offer a generous 401k plan with a significant employer match; unlimited paid time off, educational reimbursement, fitness reimbursement, and travel subsidies for commuters.
