Remote Principal Architect
Are you passionate about building tools that have an immediate impact on your customers? \nDo you have a thirst for breaking down complex, interesting initiatives into scalable code?\nDo you thrive when you're contributing to a high-performing, humble team?\nDo you love walking home from work knowing that you empowered other developers, delivered value to your customers, and got to work on some gnarly code โ all in the same day?\n\nAmazing, then youโre the type of person weโre looking for!\n\nAt Jungle Scout, we are on a mission to empower entrepreneurs to be successful Amazon sellers. We work hard, keep it real and do it all for our customers by providing industry-leading tools, education and content.\n\nWeโre growing and we are looking to add a Principal Software Engineer - Architect to our fast-paced and customer-oriented Engineering team.\n\nWhere would this person be located? Great question! Weโre a remote-first company and hope to hire this Principal Architect anywhere between the ET - PT time zones.\n\nInterested in learning more? Letโs get into the details: \n\n# **What you will be doing:**\n* Execute. You will be the technical leader of one of our groups of sprint teams. You will help teams navigate technical problems and be the stalemate breaker when a decision canโt be made.\n* Plan. You will work with product managers and team leads to play an active part in defining the roadmap and scoping features. \n* Mentor. You will have frequent conversations with members of your group and proactive seek out opportunities to help develop their careers.\n* Make recommendations. You will actively contribute to decisions around technologies to be used for new applications and improvements on existing applications\n* Scale, maintain, and improve. As we continue to grow, youโll anticipate challenges before they happen by maintaining existing codebases and system infrastructures, as well as enhancing the development, staging and production environments of our applications. \n* Participate and contribute. Youโll have an active hand in code reviews, as well as pairing on tasks. Youโll also provide input for ongoing improvement of engineering practices and procedures. \n \nIf you are thinking โheck yeah!โ, please read onโฆ.\n \n# **Who you are:**\n* Done this before. We believe experience is best measured in results and intensity (not years), but you need to have been in this software development game a while. You also need to have experience with some subset of our primary tech stack: Ruby on Rails, Node, React (or other Javascript frameworks), Postgres, Redis. Weโre thinking more than ten years.\n* Technical people-person. Youโre used to communicating technical details to non-technical coworkers as well as soliciting requirements and feedback to help you architect the most effective solution. You also love mentoring your team and working with both individual contributors and other leaders to pool your expertise and disseminate it to the rest of the department. \n* Master classer. Weโre looking for someone with a history of crushing their goals, a passion for high quality, effective solutions, and a strong desire to level up the entire team. \n* Heavy toolbelt. You know your way around a web application -- how to build clean, complex, scalable APIs and how best to consume them on the client. Youโve worked on some legacy systems and built others from scratch, making all the mistakes along the way, and now you back up your decisions with a wealth of experience and context. You understand how your tools work in detail, knows when (and when not) to use them, and can show your team a thing or two.\n* Technical leader. You will provide the technical vision and direction of the company, lead discussions that might constrain or broaden future architectural choices.\n \n\n# **About Jungle Scout**\nJungle Scout is the leading all-in-one tool for selling on Amazon, with the mission of providing powerful data and insights to help entrepreneurs and brands grow successful Amazon businesses. \n\nThe Jungle Scout team is a group of smart, motivated, and fun-loving professionals working hard to help our customers achieve success.

When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy equipment which they then pay you back for later. Also never pay for trainings you have to do. Those are scams! NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING! Posts that link to pages with "how to work online" are also scams. Don't use them or pay for them. Also always verify you're actually talking to the company in the job post and not an imposter. A good idea is to check the domain name for the site/email and see if it's the actual company's main domain name. Scams in remote work are rampant, be careful! Read more to avoid scams.
