ABOUT THE POSITION

In this position you will be joining a young, fun and energetic company with a creative atmosphere and a flexible view on work/life balance. Whispr Group has developed their own analytics tool to process and visualize data, custom made to the kind of analysis they do for their clients. This solution will drastically streamline the analysis process for Whispr Groups team and will in time also include customer facing tools. The foundation and analysis engine is built already and your job will be, together with Whispr Groups CTO, to design and implement new subsystems and features from scratch in the engine. 

The role also involves deep work on API design to ensure that engine functionality is provided in best possible way. Also, extend, refine, debug and optimize existing subsystems in the engine.

YOUR SKILLS AND BACKGROUND

We are quite open when it comes to your exact background. The most important thing is your drive, ambition and attitude. You love programming and have solid experience of C/C++. We would like to see that you have built at least one product from scratch (built, test, release, maintained). A major plus would be experience working on game engines or similar type of software. 

As a person, we hope that you are open, interested and ambitious. You are used to handling issues and projects on your own and are comfortable talking to stakeholders and business representatives. We would also like to see that you are used to a startup kind of culture where things can move fast and that you are not reliant on structure. 

In summary:

- A creative and probing approach to complex problems and a willingness to find novel solutions.
