Who We Are:
At Platform Science, we're working to connect everything that moves.

Our employees are an engaging, diverse group of people who believe in the power of great ideas. We hire people with different experiences and perspectives to build a company culture that fuels growth through innovation.
We value thoughtful actions and empathy for others. We approach challenges with resiliency and creativity, while encouraging transparency because, no matter our backgrounds or responsibilities, we are one team.
About the Team:
Platform Science is an engineering-focused organization. We have many separate teams: Incredible Android engineers who are building tablet systems from the OS up, driver legal compliance application builders, navigation teams, and far more.
To make every one of these teams a success, they need a core Cloud Platform. Our Cloud Platform team owns SSO authentication, User and Driver management, Roles and Permissions systems, feature enablement, and everything else necessary to let other teams focus on their core products' responsibilities. We sit right at the heart of everything.
Our Cloud Platform team is full-stack. Our backends use PHP/Laravel and NGINX in Docker, or Node/Express microservices in Lambda, serving REST APIs. Our front ends are predominantly VueJS.
Our engineering teams are classic Scrum two pizza teams of 3-10 developers and SDETs, plus Product Owner and Scrum Master. With Platform Science well-funded and in hyper-growth, our teams need to build, fork and specialize to deliver on that promise. This leads to equally rapid opportunities for careers to develop with them.
