These services are both high-volume and critical to the functionality of many parts of the platform as well as backend and compliance processes.

Movo is full of humble overachievers that like to move quickly, build for impact, solve incredibly tough problems… and have a ton of fun.

 

Objectives of the Senior Software Engineer, Platform

As a senior software engineer, you will be expected to design new algorithmic features, build them, and then rapidly iterate improvements.

You will be working closely with other members of the platform engineering team, Product Management, Field Engineering, as well as other stakeholders. Our product direction is not top-down and there are many opportunities as a software engineer to contribute ideas and suggestions to our roadmap.
