Hi,

I applied previously for a software engineering position at the [email protected] email domain.

Is that still valid, or should I use the above `[email protected]`.

Thanks

Hi Erica,

I had a look at the engineering culture from https://www.keyvalues.com/flexport; seems very impressive!

What is Flexports position on visa sponsorship? Would you expect EU candidates for instance to apply for positions in Amsterdam; or is there more general flexibility?

Thanks, David

Hi Adam,

For a suitable candidate, what would Ebay's position be on 'visa sponsorship' for the New York office? I know the situation is quite complicated in the US right now but any insights would be great.

Thanks, David

I was looking at the Senior Software Engineer (Data Platform) role https://boards.greenhouse.io/rokt/jobs/4216960003

On closer investigation, it looks like the emphasis is more on the 'Data Engineering' side over the backend development side.

Although I have 5+ years in Scala + Kotlin backend dev (along with a lot of the tools + tech mentioned in the spec like postgres, k8's and AWS), I'm not sure I would be 100% suitable for a more 'Big Data' oriented role; especially at Senior level.

Thanks for getting back to me on the visa topic!
