  • You love writing highly performant and readable code that is well-tested

  • 4+ years of experience building and scaling distributed systems

  • Track record of shipping high-quality products

  • Strong programming skills and general Computer Science knowledge

Bonus

  • Experience with an interface definition language like protocol buffers and gRPC

  • Experience with Map Reduce or other massively distributed parallel computation frameworks

  • Early engineer at a hyper-growth startup

  • Experience in world-class product organizations (e.g., Notion, Figma)

Who You Are

  • You thrive in fast-paced environments. You are high-intensity and care a lot about what you do, and you're ecstatic to work at a start-up

  • You are ambitious. You have fun solving problems that others think are impossible.

  • You are curious. You find joy in learning about AI, technology, and finance

  • You are an owner. You are autonomous, self-directed, and comfortable working with ambiguity

  • You are collaborative, organized, and thoughtful.

Why Join Rogo?

  • World-class team: we take talent density seriously. We like working with incredibly smart, driven people.

  • Velocity: we work fast, which means you learn a lot and constantly take on new challenges.
