Company Description:

Our technology helps senior care providers close the feedback loop with their employees and the seniors that they serve so they can make better decisions and provide better care. Today, our survey and analytics platform supports the voices of over half a million employees, seniors, and family members at over 4,000 locations. Now during the pandemic, we're helping senior care providers understand their employees' and their seniors' needs as they face unprecedented challenges. We're a close-knit remote team that cares about working hard to do good in the world, while also making sure that we can all live balanced lives. As our user base grows, we're looking for an experienced engineer to join our team to help scale our platform and expand our product offerings. We're using data to transform the aging experience of our parents, our grandparents, our loved ones - and ultimately, for ourselves. Come join us!

About the team: You'll be joining a small, but mighty remote engineering team based in the US and in Europe.

• Hands-on dev ops experience at an early or medium stage startup, bonus points if you have experience with Kubernetes, Helm, Docker, and GCP.
