Integrations and Server Engineer

Integration and Server Engineer

Company Overview

Avy is a well-funded stealth-stage startup that is revolutionizing how people work with each other and their computers. Our vision is to create a future where humans and computers work together side-by-side in seamless collaboration. We believe in the power of teamwork, trust, and the potential for humans and computers to enhance each other's capabilities. With this vision in mind, we are building innovative software solutions that empower individuals and teams to achieve their best work.

What You Will Do

As an Integrations and Server Engineer at Avy, you will play a central role in bringing our product vision to life and have exceptional prospects for growth in a fast-paced environment. This is a hands-on role where you will have the chance to wear multiple hats and build high-quality software that bridges the gap between humans and computers. Your work will involve:

• Innovative Implementation: Bring your ideas to life in a dynamic team setting, embracing various roles in the early stages.
• Build reliable, maintainable, and scalable server applications that expose APIs for use by the Avy desktop and mobile applications
• Deploy, monitor, and maintain the server applications in Avy’s cloud hosting providers (AWS, Azure, and GCP)
• Write small integration applications that connect data from external systems (other SaaS apps, APIs, etc) and feed data into the Avy applications, or perform actions in those external systems.
• It is expected that the server development and operations will take approximately 50% of your time now, with the rest allocated to the integrations. However, as Avy’s user base scales and the scope of the server-provided features grows, your role will likely move to focus more on server development and dev ops and away from the integrations.
  Some operations and on-call responsibilities will be required.
