About Hatch

Hatch makes smart sleep devices and science-backed content to help people build healthy sleep habits, from newborns to adults. Our lineup includes the Hatch Sleep Clock, a contactless sleep tracker with no wearable, Restore 3, a smart sleep clock for adults, and Hatch Baby, plus a library of original sleep audio. Our products are in 1 in 3 US nurseries and we have over 5 million sleepers. We're fully remote with a small engineering team.

Job Description

Own the backend behind our mobile apps and IoT devices: Java/Spring Boot and Python REST APIs, AWS IoT and Lambda, MySQL, plus the monitoring and automation (Ansible, Jenkins, ELK, Graphite, Docker) that keep millions of devices running in real homes. It\'s an end-to-end role, with cloud APIs on one side and physical devices on the other, and you\'ll work directly with the Mobile, Embedded, and Product teams. We\'re looking for 8+ years of backend experience, deep Java 11+/Spring Boot, some Python and Groovy, a track record building scalable REST APIs, and a bias toward the simplest thing that works. Bonus points for MQTT, connected hardware, or Ansible automation.
