Mission for Senior Back-End Engineer, Taipei

Soda Labs

We're looking for skilled and passionate back-end engineers to take technical ownership on one of the following priorities for the company:

1. Build an enterprise-grade MDM (Mobile Device Management) solution that allows the server to control hundreds of thousands of devices remotely.
2. Help create a system that would allow 3rd party channels to integrate via web-hooks and API calls for data collection, MDM controls, Single sign-on/authentication.
3. Launch a custom app store for proprietary hardware that allows 3rd party Android app support and firmware updates.

You're looking for:

• A challenge. We're not looking for someone who wants to just develop APIs for clients to access information, but rather someone who wants to extend and improve how enterprise infrastructure is used.
• To explore the limits of something deeply technical. Besides being technically skilled and able to lead major engineering efforts, we're looking for someone with an intense curiosity for deeply technical things most people shy away from.
• A role with real impact and ownership. Soda Labs will enable people around the world to access quality hardware for products that small teams normally don’t have access to. You will get to make foundational decisions that will affect each product.
