Altus Assessments

Altus empowers higher education institutions to look beyond book smarts, and to identify and nurture exceptional professionals by using unique data to generate meaningful insight that influence key academic decisions. We’re a quirky, vibrant, and diverse group of 60+ working collaboratively to tackle some tough problems (like how to evaluate empathy in someone who wants to train to become a doctor), and some less tough ones (like how to answer that bonus question on Trivia Night). We're a team of 11 developers working across several Javascript focused stacks. You'll have the chance to work with a range of different problems and hopefully learn some new skills too. During product development you'll be able to focus on implementation of features from start to finish. If that involves making database changes or spinning up a service on AWS you'll have the freedom to do so. We’re hiring across a number of open positions: Software Developer (Intermediate & Seniors), Director of Engineering, Platform Product Manager, Senior QA (Quality Assurance) Engineer. We don't have a public posting for this role but if you're a DevOps focused individual please do reach out. Ideally looking for someone that has experience with scale, comfortable with leading discussions, and taking ownership on decision making for cloud related decisions. We have some interesting (IMO) problems as we're growing quickly and so is our cloud presence! If you want to know more about our team culture or have questions about these roles feel free to email me at gguja [at] altusassessments.com or apply directly. We don't do white boarding/puzzle questions as part of the interview process, however we do ask applicants that pass the phone screen to make a presentation on how you would approach a system design problem.
