Job Description
Rilla engineers architect and ship features across the stack at lightning speed. On a daily basis, you will build end-to-end workflows, take them to production, and solve real world problems across an out-sized scale.
As an early technical steward, you will raise the bar for code quality and decision‑making, setting patterns that cement a world‑class engineering culture as we scale. While the company 10×’s, your scope and ownership will grow just as fast—building the tools, mental models, and platforms that let both you and Rilla accelerate exponentially.
Do you describe yourself as “obsessive”? Do you aspire to be a founder or a leader in applying AI to the physical world? We believe Rilla is the best place — with the best peers — to learn how.
Technologies We Use
- Different languages and frameworks, including React, React Native, Typescript and Python
- Open-source technologies like Node.js, PostgreSQL, Turborepo, Lodash, and Zod
- Industry-standard build tooling, including GitHub Actions, Terraform, and Spacelift
What We Value
- An infinite learner. Someone who is relentless in their curiosity.
- A customer obsessive. Someone who deeply care about delighting customers and solving real pains, not vanity metrics.
- A winning attitude. You thrive with extreme accountability, learning as a team, and both giving and receiving rapid feedback.
- Extreme empathy. Our customers are not tech companies. They live and work in the real world. Empathy is critical to arriving at correct solutions.
- Unafraid of failure. You take risks. You see failure as an opportunity to learn, grow, and be better the next time. In a weird way, you trick your brain into being excited when you fail, because it means you got a new opportunity to learn more.
What We Require
- Strong coding skills with demonstrated proficiency in programming languages, such as Javascript, C++, Python, Rust, or similar languages.
- Strong engineering prowess, ideally developed at start-ups.
- Familiarity with storage and data processing systems, cloud infrastructure, and other technical tools.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills and ability to iterate quickly with teammates, incorporating feedback and holding a high bar for quality.
