  • Have weekly one-on-ones with each of your team members
  • Host a weekly team meeting
  • Organize team building events, both in and out of the office

• Expect and spark innovation of your team: ideas, code, tests, culture
• Intervene, when needed, to help guide your team back towards their goals
• Engage in code reviews to ensure team members are contributing code that meets the short and long-term goals of the product

Our infrastructure is ran entirely out of AWS, and we currently utilize services such as EC2, EKS, Lambda, CloudWatch, CloudFormation, CloudTrail, RDS, S3, CloudFront, ElastiCache, Elastic Search, Redshift, and more. We use Bitbucket Server (git) and GitLab as our SCM's, Bamboo and GitLab for builds and CI, and Jira for project management. We currently have over 100 EC2, and 50 RDS instances running in AWS.

The technology department you’d be joining consists of 20 people, and we have 40 total employees, making our in-house technology team account for 50% of the company’s total size.
