Help us create a better future.
Are you ready to make a meaningful impact in the world? At CampMinder, we enable life-changing experiences for children and young adults. Our work empowers camp professionals to help shape kids into the kinds of adults you want on your team – and that we have on ours.
At CampMinder, you’ll join a company recognized for the last two years by Outside Magazine as one of America’s Best Places to Work. You’ll work closely with other talented engineers, designers, product managers, and more. We’re looking for curious, collaborative teammates who are eager to teach what they already know and jump at the opportunity to learn new things.
We’ve been designing meaningful solutions for camps since 2001. Now we’re looking for experienced back-end engineers to join our Boulder-based team to help us move towards a new microservices-based architecture. That where you come in. You’ll use your skills to help us modernize our platform, helping summer camps to create a positive impact and a better future.
Leveraging our deep experience in web-based application development, we’re building a new platform with Go microservices and containerization using Docker and Kubernetes. This new engine will work in tandem with our existing back-end (built in .Net, C# and MSSQL) and will interface with our new and exciting mobile and web UIs, built in ReactJS and React Native.
What You Bring
- Professional experience creating and maintaining the back-end function of a complex, large-scale software product
- Experience implementing a containerized microservices-based architecture
- Mastery of back-end technologies, designing and building, REST APIs and microservices, and both synchronous and asynchronous communication of distributed systems.
- A passion for solving complex problems
- A desire to learn and use the right tool for each job (i.e. you’re not tied to a professional identity as a “[some technology] developer”; You identify as a software engineer or a technologist.
Big Pluses (but not required)
- Hands-on experience using Go, Docker, and Kubernetes to implement a containerized microservices-based architecture, especially migrating from a monolithic code base
- Experience with front-end development tools or technologies, especially React and React Native
- Experience with messaging, especially Rabbit MQ
- Experience with logging tools, especially ELK stack
- Experience with cloud platforms including Azure, Amazon Web Services, and Google Cloud
- Experience with automated testing, continuous integration, and delivery and deployment tools
- Experience with and enthusiasm for Agile development methodologies, and pair programming
