Zoomer (YC S14) - http://www.zoomerdelivery.com - Multiple Roles - REMOTE

Zoomer is focused on helping high volume delivery restaurants wow their customers and grow their business. We've taken a unique approach to changing the food delivery space - a platform to handle an extraordinarily high volume of concurrent deliveries from restaurants that already deliver (i.e. pizza shops with their own delivery drivers). We are backed by some of the best investors in the world, including Y Combinator, Foundation Capital, First Round Capital, SV Angel, and other amazing funds and individuals.

Zoomer connects high volume delivery restaurants with independent delivery drivers. Restaurants leveraging the Zoomer platform are able to provide a better & more consistent delivery experience for their customer, which ultimately leads to a stronger bottom line. Independent drivers on the Zoomer platform have the ability to create their own schedule & increase their earnings. And of course, customers receive their orders dramatically faster.

We’re making key hires to expand our globally distributed core team. You’ll have a ton of impact – lots of freedom to evolve our processes, systems, partners, platform, stack and apps. We follow strong engineering practices, put an emphasis on testing, and deploy rapidly. Our team is distributed across North America and Europe.

Help us build cutting-edge technical solutions to:

  - tough logistics problems, quickly routing orders to optimal drivers
  - on-demand prediction and forecasting models
  - scalable compute and data infrastructure
  - multiple mobile apps - for restaurants, drivers, and diners
  - range of complex real-time front-end interfaces
 
Some roles we’re currently hiring for:

  - Logistics technology engineers
  - Ruby engineers
  - DevOps engineer

We've taken a unique approach to changing the food delivery space - a platform to handle an extraordinarily high volume of concurrent deliveries from restaurants that already deliver (i.e. pizza, wings, sandwiches, etc.).

Zoomer is building a new take on food delivery - a platform to handle an extraordinarily high volume of concurrent deliveries from restaurants that already deliver (i.e. pizza, wings, sandwiches, etc.). We’re bringing much needed change to local high-volume delivery restaurants that are still doing delivery the way they’ve always done it. It's a very interesting technology and logistics problem, quickly routing orders to optimal drivers in near-real-time. Our CEO has a substantial amount of experience in the space from his first startup.

In addition to Y Combinator, we are backed by some of the premier early stage venture capital funds, including First Round Capital and SV Angel, and awesome angel investors like Eric Ries & Gabriel Weinberg, the founder of DuckDuckGo. This is your opportunity to get in on the ground-floor. You would be engineer number 3 or 4. You’ll have a ton of impact – lots of freedom to help us evolve our platform, stack, and apps. We have strong dev practices, put an emphasis on testing, and deploy rapidly.

Our stack: We have an AI backend service that handles order routing, multiple mobile applications – for our drivers and restaurants, and several Ruby on Rails applications for customer-facing/internal services. We’re using Angular.js and CoffeeScript on the frontend.

The roles we’re hiring for:

  * Artificial Intelligence engineer
  * Data Science – roles open for data analysis and data infrastructure
  * Ruby on Rails engineers
  * Frontend engineer (Angular.js)
  * Mobile (iOS and Android) engineers
  * Infrastructure/DevOps engineer

The email gateway (smtp.sendgrid.com) and HTTP API endpoints were also down during the same outage period. Seems like it went beyond the public facing site.
