We’re a small but very enthusiastic and fast-growing, multi-disciplinary team based in London and Lodz working on solving real life problems. It you haven’t already, check out our main website to get a feel for Sonic, our current flagship product.
Behind the scenes, Sonic is connected to an expansive IoT platform. Backend wise it’s written primarily in Phoenix (Elixir) and Rails, as well as a few Lambda functions in Python or Javascript. Largely we’re AWS-based and don’t like to re-invent the wheel, so you’ll find a lot of open-source and managed services to keep us focussed on building real value. Our Mobile App is an Ionic Hybrid so we don’t have to write everything twice, and we have a couple of Angular web apps that are currently used internally. Everything else is really what you’d expect to see from a modern engineering team - CI/CD, code review, GitHub, Terraform, APM, logging etc.
But the bit that excites most people is the data science that backs what we do. Sonic is able to look at your water usage and determine what is using water from a single point of data collection, which is really not an easy problem to solve! This secret sauce isn’t something we can explain in a job description, but rest assured you’ll be working with some seriously talented data scientists (they work literal magic) and you’ll get a chance to solve some complex problems running their magic in the cloud.
We’ve got an office in London and Lodz, and although we’re looking for someone in Lodz (that’s where the majority of the team currently is) we’re open to having someone work from anywhere, including our London office.
