Senior Backend Architect/Developer TELECOMMUTE San Jose, California, United States DESCRIPTION About Us Mokriya takes software seriously. We’re pragmatic crafters who believe in smart and focused development, building clients’ products just as we do our own: investing heavily in design, iterating rapidly to validate and falsify ideas, and pursuing perfection in every interaction. We learned a lot of interesting things along the way about the right way to ship software, and we’re now bringing our incredible software product experience to larger companies like Verizon, Google, Intel, Twitter, Sony, L’Oral and we do this all with a fully distributed team. We believe that well-made software can change the world, no matter how small or simple a product might be. We also believe that poorly-made software badly-designed, badly-developed, or badly-supported is a preventable tragedy. Mokriya’s mission is to make great software: for ourselves, for our clients and most importantly for our users. About You You love to build.
