Spreedly Senior Database Reliability Engineer Work Sample

Requests to the Spreedly APIs are growing by 100% every year. The merchants and marketplaces that use our platform are expecting low latency and high availability from the services we provide. Additionally, we are always working to enable Product Engineering for rapid development, innovation, and reduced human error.

Our Technical Values

We highly value:

  • pragmatic solutions with an eye toward future, incremental improvements
  • careful attention to detail
  • testing before deployment
  • communicating intent through code, commits, and documentation

Spreedly Systems Engineer Work Sample

Being a company founded by developers, it's in our DNA to automate as much as we can and deploy as often as possible in order to allow for rapid development, innovation, and reduced human error.

  • Understanding how all the pieces that comprise the infrastructure fit together
  • Knowing how best to maintain and secure that infrastructure
  • Automating provisioning, testing, and maintenance as much as possible
  • Measuring and monitoring system fitness
