OkCupid is looking to hire a Software Engineer for the Backend Team!\n\nWe're seeking Engineersย \nwho are passionate about technology\nwho are excited to learn new things\nthat are independent\nthat work well with others\nwho will join our small team in NYC!\n\nWhat is it like being a Software Engineer at OkCupid?\nThe OkCupid backend engineering team of about a dozen engineers builds the infrastructure that powers matching algorithms, messaging, and more for millions of users every day. Because the team is so small relative to our user base, each engineer here has full ownership of what they're working on and the opportunity to have a considerable amount of direct consumer impact. We also have a lot of input into both technical and product design. We are involved in all parts of the process, from ideation to deployment, so everything we build is something we also had a hand in designing.\n\nSince our team size is lean, each of us has the opportunity to be exposed to many different parts of our stack and learn a ton. To give one concrete example, one backend engineer has in the past year alone: built the foundation of our anti-spam infrastructure, built out the backend support for a completely new messaging paradigm, and made the foundation of our machine learning infrastructure.\n\nWe work closely with the other engineering and product teams across the company to figure out the best ways to help people find meaningful relationships and turn those ideas into live product features. These changes include adding brand-new features and experiences to the site. We tweak our matching algorithm to ensure that users see the best possible matches or improve our infrastructure to ensure that users can always find matches and continue moving quickly and improving their experience.\n\nSome things you'll do:\nAnalyze site activity and user behavior to figure out what makes people click\nWork with product and engineering teams to figure out the best ways to help our users find love.\nDesign, implement and deploy features and improvements based on these findings.\nSome examples of projects that backend engineers are currently or were recently working on:\nDiscovery: building a new site experience to help users find other users based on shared interests, question answers, etc.\nMatching algorithm: optimizing the algorithms that decide whom users see in different places across the site\nML infrastructure: building out infrastructure to allow our engineers and data scientists to quickly and easily deploy newly trained machine learning models into production\nCore infrastructure: designing the future foundation of OkCupid's backend infrastructure, from deployments to testing environments to monitoring and alerting\n\n#LI-GA1\n\nWhatโs in it for you?\n - Competitive salary and full benefits, including Medical, Dental, Vision, and 401k\n - Workstation and tools of your choice\n - Paid attendance to conferences\n - Complimentary catered lunch and an endless supply of snacks & drinks (in-office)\n - Monthly snack boxes (remote)\n - Company funded happy hours/events\n - Discounted fitness membership with ClassPass\n - Generous maternity and/or paternity leave and contributions towards fertility preservation\n - A team full of incredibly curious and friendly people\n\nOkCupid is an equal opportunity employer.
