Inscopix Data Product team at Inscopix is looking for a Senior Backend Developer to work on a new AWS-hosted cloud-based platform for organizing, analyzing, and visualizing neuroscience research data. This is an opportunity to build core pieces of a new scientific data analytics platform to help advance neuroscience research. Our first widespread release is later this year and you will get involved in every piece of the project. We’re using modern tools and adopting 2022 best practices. Our Data Product team is collaborative, curious and enjoys sharing information with each other. We foster a team of learning, connection, growth and inclusiveness. If you want to develop your skills in a mission oriented company, apply to our role to learn more.

What we’re looking for:

• 5+ years of experience as a Backend developer
• 3+ years of experience working with AWS services
• Experience with Python, React, Postgresql, and Linux
• Interested in cloud services and cloud security and wanting to advance their skills and understanding in these areas.
• Experience scaling backend systems and cloud infrastructure.
• Experience implementing large scale data stacks using cloud managed and/or serverless architectures.
• Must be COVID-19 vaccinated

Technology we’re using that you’ll have the opportunity to learn or develop your skills in:

• AWS Services – Landing Zone, CodeBuild, CodeDeply, ECS, Fargate, Batch, Cognitio, S3, RDS

• Backend – Django/Python, PostgreSQL, Postgraphile / GraphQL, C++ (performant algorithms)
• Frontend – React / TypeScript, Apollo Client, AWS Amplify, WebAssembly

Location:

This is a hybrid position. We have an office in downtown Vancouver B.C and value the collaboration and team culture that is facilitated by working together in person. We also like to support taking advantage of the fact that software development is inherently ‘remote-friendly’ by allowing flexibility to work from home. For some people, this might mean being onsite for one week and home for the next, or having at least a couple days a week that are in person. Overall, we’re looking for someone that can be at the office about 30-50% of the time. We’ll consider a more remote situation for a candidate that is more advanced and in a region where we have employees already.
