Lead Software Engineer

Overview

Do you want to create something that will change the way people think about data analysis? We are looking for highly ambitious engineers who want to own major aspects of the Tykli product – from the back-end through to the end user experience. If this is you, we want to hear from you!

As a Lead Engineer, you will have an excellent opportunity to jump into a breakthrough and profitable company that is growing fast.

Requirements:

Strong Java skills, with the ability to hit the ground working in a large codebase;

Strong oral and written communication skills and a collaborative mindset: you will be representing Tykli in public, interacting with end users and leading a dev team;
Strong background in statistics and data analysis;
BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science or equivalent.
We are committed to being great, and we want someone who:

Is passionate about finding insights in data and using quantitative analysis to answer complex questions;
Wants to have ownership and responsibility for a major aspect of product functionality from back-end algorithms through to the user interface;
