Software Engineer - Full Stack

About Us

LeapYear's secure machine learning platform is deployed by some of the largest enterprises in the world across finance, healthcare, and technology.

Our technology ensures differential privacy, a widely recognized standard of data privacy that enables all data - including sensitive information - to be used for analytics, while providing mathematically proven privacy protection.

About the Team

The Applications Team defines and builds the software that data owners use to connect data scientists to their sensitive data. We are building a robust set of post-ETL tools that permit administrators to shape and refine their data before provisioning access to it. Our team owns permissions, user and data management, and the public GraphQL API that controls them. As a member of the Applications Team, you'll be responsible for innovating ways to help data owners reason about the complex concepts underlying differential privacy, and providing an administrative API and UI for the entire system.

On the Applications Team, you'll work across disciplines, technologies, and teams to solve problems. Modeling a database within a database, integrating with customer user management systems using standards like SAML, designing and documenting APIs for use with customer systems, and integrating monitoring and tracing, all while following the strictest standards for security in the industry.

Like all teams at LeapYear, we reason about our abstractions using strongly-typed, functional-forward languages like TypeScript and Haskell. We believe in tests and automated code quality tools. We also believe in an open, safe, inclusive, and collaborative environment where everyone is comfortable and supported to bring their whole selves.

You enjoy building tools for technical users, but want to understand their needs first

- You are looking for a job where you can make the "jump" to a role with broader ownership - owning features, learning new technologies, interfacing with more stakeholders - and the support you need to get there

You like being a polyglot and working on a diverse array of problems from day to day, instead of being highly specialized
You like to ask questions and listen to people to help define and understand problems as much as you like writing the code to solve them
You like to learn from and share your expertise with your teammates

- You're comfortable pairing, working solo, or with teammates from other teams at LeapYear - Design, Product, Platform, Infrastructure, or Algorithms - as the problem requires

You're interested in building on-premises software for the enterprise where precision, correctness, and stability are more important than volume or scale

Responsibilities

Develop the front-end and back-end of all LeapYear web applications for data scientists and data administrators
Run the full software development lifecycle - problem definition, design, development, testing, demoing, and supporting production use of the features you own
Collaborate with product management to create an intuitive experience for our users, giving them insight into sensitive data and powerful tools to work with data
Develop enterprise-ready features and integrations to meet the needs of the world's largest organizations
Balance immediate business objectives against long-term architectural vision
Represent complex, novel concepts from machine learning and cryptography in an intuitive way
Learn new technologies, best design practices and usability patterns

Requirements

Prior experience developing full-stack web applications including:
UI implementation
Client-server interaction
API design
SQL database manipulation
JavaScript experience
Enthusiasm for learning and evaluating new technologies
Strong focus on user experience at all levels of the product

Interest in or experience with functional programming paradigms
Interest in or experience with a type system
Familiarity with our tech stack (React, GraphQL, Typescript, CSS3, PostgreSQL, Docker)
Experience with Cypress for testing
Interest in or experience with data analysis or machine learning
Strong analytical and quantitative problem solving ability
