We are seeking a talented Backend Engineer to join our small team in building a truly next-generation security system utilizing all the killer bells and whistles: deep learning, on-edge embedded AI system, hybrid-cloud, video-streaming, big data, etc. We are a tight-knit, fast-paced, high energy start-up team. This position is based in Taipei and focuses on the development of software that runs in our cloud and security centers. Key skills include Python hands-on-coding in an at-scale production product, and startup-type get-it-done experience in new areas that expand your horizons. Our ideal candidate has a passion for code, a love for a fail-fast (and work freaking hard) engineering environment, and a hunger to learn and grow. We prefer raw-intelligence over syntax-excellence, ownership over silos. And coffee over water.
