We are looking for extraordinary software developers who want to join the fight against global warming
Carbonflow is a for-profit startup in the cleantech industry. Our mission is to help the fight against climate change through innovative technology solutions which dramatically cut the time and cost of generating and exchanging carbon credits. Our products will help get emissions reduction projects started, and provide incentives to businesses and consumers to lower greenhouse gas emissions. We are an international company headquartered in San Francisco.
We develop in leading-edge technologies: cloud computing, Grails, and off-line web applications. We believe in agile development, and have been releasing regularly since December. Our software stack is all open-source – Apache, MySQL, JBoss/Jetty, Grails, Java, Spring, Hibernate, HTML5. Our deployment environment is Amazon S3 and EC2 with Linux virtual servers.
What our Senior Software Engineer will do
- Hard-core coding and software design
- Building the critical parts of our software applications, initially our project workflow application.
- Work closely with our CTO and the rest of the development team
- A little of everything as needed!
This position will give you a lot of freedom to design and code to your own high standard, and to grow your software career at our company as the carbon markets take off.
What qualifications we are looking for
We are looking for a smart adaptable engineer to join our small, but talented, team. We care more about the right team fit, passion for our mission, and desire to code, than a particular number of years of experience. So, if you meet the following, please apply.
- Extensive Java web application development experience.
- Grails would be a real bonus.
- Strong object oriented design and development skills.
- Full software life-cycle development – from design through testing in an agile, test-focused environment.
- Experience of building and supporting scalable, high-quality web applications.
- Enjoy using open source technologies.
- Experience developing workflow applications would be a bonus.
- Ability to solve problems and think creatively.
- Work well in a team environment & individually.
And some things about you (the ideal candidate) – as a person
You care about green issues, even if you don’t know much about carbon markets (yet).
You are excited by Web technology & experienced in developing in it.
You are turned on by the idea of working for a start-up – getting in on the ground floor, wearing multiple hats, and diving in to do whatever is needed.
To apply, send a resume to: jobs@carbonflow.com with the code CFSrDev in the subject line.
