Redefining its category, the company has grown... rapidly in recent years providing a compelling alternative to legacy GIS software.

Since its inception, CARTO has been based on PostgreSQL. This worked well and many of our customers are still using this platform version. We saw some limitations with this architecture, and we evolved the CARTO product, adapting it to current market needs. In October 2021, we launched a new version of our platform that provides a fully cloud-native experience, extending the spatial capabilities of the leading data warehouse platforms: BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, and Redshift.

Some of our current challenges are solving problems like design high scalable platform to calculate optimized routes of pipelines over terabytes of spatial data and hundreds of constraints in seconds, predicting revenue for simulated stores in a whole country applying ML techniques, or process, aggregate, and enrich billions of transactions across the globe to serve them in a real-time application.

Site Planning is an example of a product created by our team in 2021-2022, using state-of-the-art algorithms in geo data science + curate data from premium providers + cutting edge technology on the frontend side (deck.gl + webgl), it allows a business user with no knowledge in geospatial to decide what’s the best place to open a new store. It has become one of the best-seller products from CARTO in 2022. Companies like Gap, Taco Bell, Goiko, Mars are using this product in production today for their decision-making.

We are looking for a Lead Backend Engineer to join CARTO’s professional services team and build the next generation geospatial apps running on top of the most popular data warehouses: BigQuery, Snowflake, DataBricks, Redshift, and Aurora.

Our backend lead should be someone experienced in building REST APIs with Python and Javascript/Typescript, using technologies like Flask, FastAPI, or Koa and Express. Another important skill for us is to have a strong level of SQL, since this is the language we use for data query and manipulation.

Ideally, experienced with large software applications of either very high demand or large databases. Someone mature enough in our approach to software development in how you test, fine-tune, and document when required. Also, with previous experience with modern tools for CI/CD: Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins, Drone, etc. Also, a skilled communicator, that is able to communicate in English.

Location: The position is open to remote, preferably Central European Time zone. In fact, we are mostly working remotely right now, but we do have offices in Madrid and Seville in Spain. If you work remotely, some sporadic trips to Seville will be required from time to time, to gather with your coworkers or to attend some relevant events. In any case, no more than 5% of your time.

You will

Manage an incredible team with an amazing geospatial background, motivated and willing to address new challenges that build cutting-edge backend systems that feed beautiful maps and meaningful geospatial apps.

Lead and be technically responsible for the development of products on top of CARTO. We have a challenge here to boost our location intelligence platform to meet specific use cases in a cloud native approach. See an example: https://carto.com/solutions/site-selection

Be responsible for code quality in all project components. You will decide how the development process is.

Deploy solutions with the most modern technology stack including: Google Cloud Run, Github Actions, Drone, Kubernetes, Firebase, Redshift, Prefect, BigQuery and a big etc.

Support communications with the client's technical team.

Recommend improvements to the development team, and pass them books, talks, and videos. Help them to learn and grow.

Work on cutting-edge technology, building something unique in the geospatial world to bring full native capabilities for geospatial analytics to the top data warehouses.

Push BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, and Redshift to the limit. You’ll also really understand the internals of these data warehouses.

You offer

Initiative, a can-do attitude, and eagerness to learn! Curiosity, energy, and a collaborative mindset (code reviews, pair programming, promote teamwork, succeed together).

8+ years working as a developer, with a mature approach to the job (git, documentation, testing,...) and previous experience managing an engineering team

With an exceptionally diverse team of 190 people spread across the US and Europe, CARTO (backed by Accel Partners, Salesforce Ventures, Earlybird Ventures, and Kibo Ventures, among others) is changing the way companies analyze location data - making it simple to do this straight out of modern, cloud data warehouses. Redefining its category, the company has grown rapidly in recent years providing a compelling alternative to legacy GIS software.

To continue this growth, the Infrastructure team is looking for an enthusiastic Site Reliability Engineer to join our 7-people infrastructure team and help us scale up a product that is constantly changing (new functionalities) with a 100% cloud-native infrastructure.

The team you will join: We are a 7-people team that includes the IT area owner and the Professional services one, who is responsible for projects that require custom developments not covered by our main product. We are a young but talented team, where we are learning from each other every day and with a perfect balance between those with more expertise (oncall, platform stabilization, debugging skills …) and those that were already born with Kubernetes, docker, cloud technologies and DevOps practices.

Location: The position is open to remote. In fact, we are mostly working remotely right now, but we do have offices in Madrid, and Seville in Spain, but any location in Spain would work!

You will
• Write IaC (Infrastructure as a code) using Terraform, it should fit the three environments we work with (dev, staging, production).
• Understand and contribute to CI / CD tasks (Google Cloud Build, Github Actions).
• Develop new tools (Python, Node.js, Go …) that will help us to provide a better service to both our internal teams and our clients.
• Develop HELM charts, to keep improving our Self Hosted version and make it more robust and compatible with cloud providers k8s services (GKE, AKS, EKS …)
• Observability is a first-class citizen for us, so you will work with several monitoring services: grafana, prometheus, honeycomb, logstash, google cloud monitoring, pagerduty.
• Provide support to other teams
• Responsible for keeping the platform/infrastructure in a good shape: we have two levels of support (Oncall and working hours) and we need to check any kind of alert (critical, or not) throughout the day, precisely to avoid non-critical issues to become critical ones. Additionally, researching any issue until we get to the bottom is mandatory, no matter if it comes from a critical alert, or not.
• Keep the infrastructure up to date: updating the different infrastructure pieces and components is a must, in order to avoid them becoming “legacy” parts, with the ultimate goal of aligning working methodologies and best practices (Terraform), even for those parts that are already “legacy”.
• Proactively, perform any kind of improvement or refactor that will place our infrastructure in a better position.

Responsibilities
• Keep growing the infrastructure in the cloud(s) in an agile and orderly manner, following best devops practices: IaC, metrics, monitoring…
• Ensure the platform is in good shape and healthy by checking any kind of alert and researching any issue detected in the platform.
• Gradually modernize the infrastructure by unifying working methodologies (past, present, future).
• Perform any kind of improvement or refactoring that will help to have a more resilient infrastructure.
• Provide support to other teams
• Contribute and improve Kubernetes HELM chart for our Self Hosted version.

In one month…
• You will get to know your buddies, who will help you during the Onboarding process and will be your reference point for any kind of question you may have over this period. The rest of the team too, as well as the day-to-day way of working.
• You will complete your onboarding sessions thanks to the CARTO Academy material and to the trainings that you will attend either from the Infrastructure team or from any other team, like the Product one.
• You will attend 4 sync meetings with the rest of the Infrastructure team, on a weekly basis with a 30 minutes duration, where you will learn the tasks that your teammates are working on and you will have the chance to receive or provide some advice about how to fix a complex issue discussed during the meeting.
• You will work in operational day-to-day tasks, including production ones, that will help you get familiar with all the infrastructure pieces (monitoring, metrics, debugging issues …).
• You will realize that there is still a knowledge gap about how the platform works and how all the pieces work together. It’s ok, there is no need to be worried because you will know who will be there to help you.

In 3 months…
• You will deploy many Infrastructure changes through Terraform.
• You will install and understand the Helm chart of our Self Hosted version and why not, contribute to it with some improvements.
• You will start feeling more comfortable proposing changes and deploying them (no matter your expertise or seniority level, all the changes require a code review process).
• You will keep asking questions to your buddies and the rest of the team and that is perfectly fine.
• You will do your first response team shift: it is a two weeks shift (office hours) for fixing and helping other teams with issues related to the infrastructure (operational tasks).

In 6 months…
• You will still ask questions (we all still ask questions), so please keep them coming. You will have a very good understanding of the platform and in case you are interested, you will have the chance to join the oncall shifts (24/7). This is totally optional.
• You will enjoy getting your hands dirty to face new challenges. You will be able to debug, triage, and fix production issues.
• You will work in mid/long term projects, where you could work shoulder to shoulder with other teams, or just with your teammates and sometimes, even by yourself.
• You will feel comfortable working with other people at this stage and at the same time, confident enough to lead and execute projects / tasks by yourself.

How will you do this?
• The Infrastructure team, as well as the rest of the Engineering team, plans the work/tasks with two-week iterations. For one iteration, at least, you will join the Response Team (operations) in order to have much better visibility of the platform and the most frequent issues that we need to help with. There is a knowledge base (wiki format) that will help you through it.
• For another iteration, you will support the Professional Services team by helping them with Infrastructure tasks. This will help you get familiar with the custom solutions that CARTO clients demand and how they are deployed, from the Infrastructure point of view (GKE, Github Actions, Firebase, Cloud Functions …).
• From this moment you will join the day-to-day Infrastructure team tasks. There is a kanban where we organize the tasks (using Shortcut, former clubhouse)..

You offer
• Some experience like the one mentioned in the job description
• Expertise with Terraform, or any other IaC tool
• Familiar with cloud providers. CARTO mainly works with GCP, but any other expertise with other cloud providers is more than welcome
• Familiar with cloud security terms: IAM, VPC, IAP…
• Linux knowledge (containers, systems, signals…)
• Debugging mindset and eager to fix issues
• Experience with Kubernetes, HELM charts, and Docker
• Development skills and with good database knowledge (PostgreSQL is a plus)
• Very good communication skills, both conversation and written, as well as a good English level
• We will be fascinated if…
