About the role
Responsibilities
The right candidate is passionate about building and has the ability and agency to drive projects to completion.
You should be excited by the prospect of owning a large part of our engineering system, and continuously looking for more responsibility to take on.
Being a backend engineer at Triumph is both demanding and rewarding, and your scope will cover (but not be limited to):
- Building consumer facing features to help Triumph's core business metrics
- Solving difficult data drive problems, such as optimal matchmaking, anti-fraud, etc.
- Iterating on engineering processes to allow the growing team to ship fast - eg. experimentation platforms, improving CI/CD
Above all, we hire people for their slope, who are willing to match the pace and energy of the growth curve of the company. While we ask a lot, we regularly double down on our top people.
Qualifications
- 3+ years of experience as a backend engineer (Go is nice)
- Strong product sense
- A strong personal slope and desire to grow one's career.
Why Triumph?
- High growth. Build a high-scale consumer platform that touches gaming, finance, and social with the autonomy to set our web direction.
- High agency. Small, high-impact engineering team that is growing rapidly with significant opportunity for leadership and growth.
- High energy. Passionate team who are proud of our work and velocity (16x year over year growth).
- Competitive salary and benefits. $400/mo lunch credit, healthcare, vision, dental, 401k, etc.
Our team gathers 5 days a week at Triumph’s headquarters in San Francisco.
