About Us
Harbour is a San Francisco based company dedicated to bringing much needed innovation, beauty, and efficiency to the digital contracts space. We are a business that values creativity, thinking big, and acting with kindness.
Harbour is part of the Guggenheim's Technology and Innovation Council, a recipient of the Mozilla/Coil/Creative Commons 'Grant for the Web', a sponsor of Sundance Film Festival, and continues to support causes that empower creators. We were co-founded by ex-Google and ex-Getty Images employees and are currently scaling fast and investing heavily in engineering, analytics and data.
Open Role
Harbour loves data -- we are looking for a software engineer specializing in data systems to take our product from an MVP loved by customers to a platform that will scale to $100m in revenue and beyond. We are trusted with some of the most important and sensitive documents from our partners, and need to engineer systems with the auditability, robustness, and reliability worthy of that trust.
You'll report to the CTO (ex-Googler) and be the primary backend architect and software engineer who will design and build our core data systems and set the best practices that our future engineers will follow.
