Your responsibilities:

You'll be developing a single-page application written in JavaScript. We're working in our own very small framework. You'll be changing the framework itself, too – whenever you need it to be changed.

We don't use npm nor any other third-party libraries in our application – if we need something, we build a new component/library to it our needs – and we spend the time to make it right.

We're also writing our own unit and integration tests – so you'll need to know how to test the application and write test cases for every new functionality you add.

Our application is an internal tool designed to help people from every corner of our company – so you'll have to understand at a high level what the needs are so that you can use the API provided accurately and build the interface to fit the need of our colleagues.

About the product:

Keepit is a cloud-to-cloud backup service provider. Our platform aims to provide our customers with an immutable historical archive of their primary data in systems such as Microsoft 365, GCloud, Salesforce, and Dynamics, to protect them from ransomware to simple accidents.

At Keepit, we like to keep it simple. We want to think "less is more". We are one of the leading cloud data protection platforms in a rapidly growing market, and we can see that customers like what we do. We are looking for more colleagues to help us do even more.

The Keepit platform is a set of networked services working in concert; we strongly emphasize performance and reliability, influencing how we approach development and write our code.

Most of our back-end components are written in clean, modern C++ using purpose-built components and the STL. Several components that deal with business processes and data mining are built using Common lisp.

Everything runs on Linux. It runs on the servers that our people run. Our service operates from data center locations in Washington, Sydney, Copenhagen, London, Frankfurt, and Toronto— but we are a growing organization, and more regions will come.

At Keepit, the developer will contribute significantly to project specifications since deep technology understanding matters when we decide how to solve a problem.

At Keepit, we write code to last since taking the time to do it right is faster than doing things over.

At Keepit, developers will write test cases for their code since if we can't prove that the code works, there is little chance of impressing QA.

Our approach to development itself is ambitious and bold. We have developed components and systems that most organizations do not, securing us a solid lead in this rapidly expanding cloud-to-cloud backup market. Backing up billions of objects over foreign APIs using imperfect networks on systems with finite memory and making it happen in as little time as possible is no small feat. We also built the object store that holds these data, too. And we built every system in between and around as well. If you think solving complicated problems is fun, we have strong indications that we will run out of complex issues any time soon. Join us for fun!
