About us Q6 is a unique, small business with huge growth opportunity. Our entire company is remote, we offer competitive salary (based on experience), provide premium free health insurance for you and substantial premium discounts on your dependents. Q6\'s goal is to drastically reduce the complexity of adding high quality rewards into non-cash rewards programs. Opportunity: We are seeking a full-time employee as a Staff Software Engineer who is looking for the opportunity to work for a profitable startup. At Q6, our engineering team is small, which provides you the ability to work on a multitude of complex projects with a fast development cycle in a non-structured job environment. You will architect, develop, modify and monitor applications that you create and that Q6 already has active. This position will afford you the opportunity to challenge and grow the limits of your abilities as a software engineer within an entrepreneurial working environment. Desired Individual: You have been using Rust exclusively for the last year and you have substantial experience using Rust to build web services. You understand the intricacies of Rust and some of the more common pitfalls when writing concurrent Rust. You also have experience working with Node.js and writing javascript code in a functional style with the help of libraries such as Ramda and Fluture. If you do not have too much experience writing functional javascript, but you are very familiar with coding in a functional style, then you will be just fine working with our Node.js apps. You like to own the applications you write. So you are no stranger to working with cloud providers such as GCP and AWS. Launching and monitoring applications that you have written is nothing new and expected. You are not interested in just working with a single part of a larger application. You like to be involved in the full stack setup. This means cluster creation, management, DB management and connecting all of the pieces together to make the project you were working on successful. As an engineer at a startup, you must be able to work within tight deadlines writing effective, quality code that solves a problem versus creating new ones. You enjoy challenges and love learning new things. You are currently not looking for just another job, but rather something that will push your skills while offering exceptional growth potential.
