Ycode is a new visual programming tool that empowers people of all skill levels to build and host web projects without writing any code themselves. The no-code revolution is coming, but there's a catch: no-code tools need developers!

The complexity of building and maintaining a no-code platform requires a team of exceptional and highly-skilled developers. That’s where you come in.

Are you a developer who prefers solving complex problems on a day-to-day basis rather than building forms and grids all day? Team Ycode is looking for a new team member that's passionate and great at what they do.

Why work at Ycode? 

This is not your typical web app project. We’re developing something that is completely unique to the marketplace.

Here are 6 more reasons you should apply:

1. You’ll help change the IT world
Join the #nocode movement! Along with our talented team, you’ll help change how software is built. Ycode automates tasks and provides building blocks so people who don’t know how to code can create web apps.

2. You’ll work with a clean codebase
We adhere to the latest best practices of development and with continuous integration, so you can always rely on a clean codebase to work with.

You will be working mostly with Vue 3 and Tailwind CSS. The tech stack also includes Laravel, PostgreSQL, Google Cloud and Docker. We work in sprints and manage projects in Github using issues, projects, pull requests and reviews.

3. You’ll influence the end product
Get involved in the very early stages! We need someone to offer new ideas, contribute to the overall planning and have a direct influence on the product build.

4. You’ll take ownership
We never micromanage and try not to interrupt your work with random tasks. We expect you to take full responsibility and ownership for the stuff you build.
5. You’ll have access to experts
Our developer team has lots of proven experience in web development. Whenever you’re stuck, your teammates are eager to help you grow. And they’d love for you to share your knowledge too! 6. You’ll pick where you want to work
Every day you get to choose what environment makes you most productive.

What we expect from you
  • You've worked as a full-time developer for at least 4 years.

  • You've built large web apps serving thousands of users using Vue 2 or Vue 3.

  • You have advanced knowledge of HTML, CSS and frameworks like Tailwind CSS.

  • You can meaningly contribute to technology decisions.

  • Strive to write quality code (simple to understand, maintain, change, performant, documented).

  • Problem-solving mindset.

  • Outstanding attention to detail (include the word “no-code” somewhere in your application email).

  • Good verbal and written communication skills in English.

  • Ability to work with teams across multiple time zones and countries.


 What we offer
  • Competitive salary: $50,000 - $70,000 (gross).

  • Company-paid retreats. We gather twice a year for a week in an exotic location to work, learn and have fun together.

  • Four weeks of vacation. We encourage you to unplug and recharge!

  • Annual benefits, which include a budget for home office setup, personal development, leisure trips, etc.

  • Company-paid creative days. Go out explore and share your discoveries with the team afterward.

  • MacBook and other tools that'll help you to do your job efficiently.

  • Remote-first culture.

  • Check the full list of our awesome benefits here.

Come and join us on our mission to make FATMAP the Home of the Outdoors . . .
the place where every adventure begins.

We are evolving and expanding our data science function as a strategic contributor to business and product decisions across the whole company. We are looking for a hands-on data science leader to deliver the next evolution of our data science capabilities.

About the adventure
We’re in business to help people have better, safer adventures in the mountains. Your role will contribute to this by designing an unrivaled user experience for our mobile and web applications. 

FATMAP is the world’s only global 3D map built for outdoor adventure, trusted by the World’s top adventurers, athletes and mountain guides. We’re building the largest community of skiers, hikers, mountain bikers, trail runners and mountaineers around the world and enabling them to plan, experience and share their adventures. 

As the Head of Data Science, you’ll be joining a very small data team who move fast and work closely together on our mission: to make FATMAP the Home of the Outdoors - the place where every adventure begins. We want to democratise access to adventure and make the experience simple, accessible and shareable.

We’re looking for someone who is as passionate about the outdoors as they are about their craft: someone who will be living and breathing the product with deep empathy for the needs of our users, yet able to rapidly design and help build a product to scale our product to support 10x growth over the next year

We’re a team of 35 people and life at FATMAP still feels very much like a startup. To be at home here you should be comfortable moving fast in ambiguity, and able to create an organisation and structure to help us scale the business. We have ambitious goals and we’re looking for someone who is up to the challenge. 

We operate a flexible remote working policy - pandemic permitting. You will be based out of one of our hubs in Chamonix, Berlin, Vilnius or Southern Britain and have the choice to mix working from home with time at the office, but should be no more than 2hrs from one of our hub offices to maximise the opportunity to spend time together as a team.  

In our office you’ll find skis, muddy boots, full suspension bikes and ice axes instead of ping pong tables and fuzzball. They say there are no friends on a powder day but at FATMAP we hope you’ll do a few runs to test the latest app build before you hit the office.

The Role
We currently have a very small data science team, with a heavy focus on supporting our product development process. The next stage of evolution for the team is to broaden the scope of the service as the company focusses more on growing our user base and revenues.

Because we are still a relatively small, early-stage company, we need leaders who are still very much hands-on doers as well as leaders, and this role is no exception.

Responsibilities

  • Service design – Data science service for all key stakeholders in the business, including Product Development, Marketing, Business Operations and Finance. Service elements include data analytics, tools for self-service analysis by stakeholder teams and automation of BI reporting requirements. Managing the cost of service provision against a budget.
  • Data infrastructure and architecture – Design coherent and scalable architecture for collecting, storing, and analysing data. Responsible for evolution of the data analysis environment over time to stay ahead of the strategic needs of the business.
  • Analytics – Hands-on data analysis work alongside the rest of the team. Needs to be a current data science practitioner.
  • Consulting – Working with the rest of the team to advise and support stakeholders in their use of the self-service tools and in data analysis techniques and best practice.
  • Leadership – Manage the data science team day to day and support team members in personal development and career progression. Participate in the operations management leadership forum and ensure effective collaboration with other areas of the business. Execute the company strategy and design and evolve the data analytics service around it. Guide the data science team in setting goals and key deliverables in support of the company’s top-level strategic goals.

What we offer

  • 3 inspiring office hubs in Chamonix, Berlin and Vilnius
  • Flexible and remote working - working adventure trips are encouraged.
  • Really awesome technical setup (laptop, screens, headset etc.) of your choice
  • All your outdoor gear at pro pricing
  • Unlimited reference and learning materials - for your work and adventures!
  • Regular team/company trips to outdoor adventure destinations
  • Free use of our Chamonix apartment - 100m from the lift and surrounded by the biggest mountain range in Europe! With a stash of gear including tents, bouldering mats, sleeping bags, harnesses, ropes to borrow for free any time you like.
  • New friends to explore with.

  • React/Typescript in the frontend

  • A generalised specialist. Someone who has put in the hard yards and has built a deep understanding of a topic. There won’t be much we can teach you in your area of specialty, however we also seek someone with a range of auxiliary interests and competencies; a generalised specialist.

  • Someone socially aware. We work in a team, within a company. We work with contacts across various client companies. We talk with our clients, and really listen to their feedback.

On the technical side

  • 4+ years of professional software development experience, ideally building complex software systems that have been successfully delivered to customers

Senior Site Reliability Engineer

Summary

The Wikimedia Foundation is looking for a Senior Site Reliability Engineer to join our team, reporting to the Search Platform Engineering Manager. As the Senior Site Reliability Engineer, you will be responsible for supporting, maintaining and extending Wikidata Query Service (WDQS), the essential infrastructure that supports querying Wikidata and our Search infrastructure, powering the searchbox on Wikipedias and other higher level features..

The Search Platform team is dedicated to “help people easily discover knowledge on Wikipedia and its sister projects by providing tools and infrastructure for casual readers and expert users with precise needs, while maintaining a strong emphasis on privacy.” We are a mixed-skill team composed of software engineers, a computational linguist, and a site reliability engineer. We are responsible for Search and the Wikidata Query Service. We are a fully remote team, spread across UTC-8 to UTC+1 timezones. When the world is not locked down by a pandemic, we see each other in person two or three times per year.

Wikidata Query Service is a SPARQL endpoint, backed by a graph database (more precisely an RDF Triple Store) that is live updated from Wikidata. WDQS provides the means to query Wikidata, to ask questions that would otherwise be impossible to answer, and to provide the base infrastructure on which our community can build tools and bots to query and edit Wikidata. We’ve written a great blog post if you want more context.

Wikidata has recently reached item number 10’000’000. Our graph database contains almost 12 billion triples, and has grown by over 250 million triples over the last three months. This is one of the largest public SPARQL endpoints on the internet. You would be helping us support this rapid growth.

CirrusSearch is the Mediawiki extension, backed by Elasticsearch, that provides Search capabilities to all of our wikis, serving around 2000 requests per second. We do Machine Learning Ranking and other data centric approaches to Search, supported by Kafka and Hadoop.

Your job as part of this team would be to use your skills to help us maintain and scale the Wikidata Query Service and Search. Your first project is likely to be setting up an Apache Flink cluster on Kubernetes that will allow us to update Wikidata Query Service more efficiently. This platform has the potential to become our new standard for stateful stream processing across the Foundation.

Here are some examples of projects we have been (or still are) working on:

  • Rearchitecting and rewriting the update process that ships data from Wikidata to WDQS, introducing Apache Flink as a stateful event processing framework.
  • Integrating Wikidata and Search.
  • Maintaining the beta Wikimedia Commons Query Service (WCQS) SPARQL endpoint and upgrading it to production status.
  • Rearchitecting our Elasticsearch cluster to allow for additional growth in the size of our indices, splitting into more independent Elasticsearch clusters.

You are responsible for:

  • Deployment, scaling, monitoring, provisioning and support of our Search and SPARQL endpoints
  • Providing guidance and expertise to the team on productionizing our applications

Skills and Experience:

  • Experience as a Site Reliability Engineer, experience working on bare metal is a plus.
  • Experience with Configuration Management Systems (Puppet, Ansible, …)
  • Experience in supporting highly available and high-traffic web-facing applications.
  • Be open to supporting JVM-based applications.
  • English language skills and ability to work independently, as an effective part of a globally distributed team.
  • B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, related field, or equivalent in related work experience. Do not feel you need a degree to apply; we value hands-on experience most of all.

Qualities that are important to us:  

Additionally, we’d love it if you have:

  • Experience with search
  • Experience with graph databases, in particular RDF / SPARQL
  • Experience with event streaming platforms (Kafka or similar)

We host the Wikimedia projects, build software experiences for reading, contributing, and sharing Wikimedia content, support the volunteer communities and partners who make Wikimedia possible, and advocate for policies that enable Wikimedia and free knowledge to thrive. The Wikimedia Foundation is a charitable, not-for-profit organization that relies on donations. We receive financial support from millions of individuals around the world, with an average donation of about $15. We also receive donations through institutional grants and gifts. The Wikimedia Foundation is a United States 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization with offices in San Francisco, California, USA.

As an equal opportunity employer, the Wikimedia Foundation values having a diverse workforce and continuously strives to maintain an inclusive and equitable workplace. We encourage people with a diverse range of backgrounds to apply. We do not discriminate against any person based upon their race, traits historically associated with race, religion, color, national origin, sex, pregnancy or related medical conditions, parental status, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, status as a protected veteran, status as an individual with a disability, genetic information, or any other legally protected characteristics.

If you are a qualified applicant requiring assistance or an accommodation to complete any step of the application process due to a disability, you may contact us at recruiting@wikimedia.org or (415) 839-6885.
