Durin
El Segundo, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 4/10/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/9/2025

About the Company - Durin was founded under the belief that raw materials should not be a constraint on human progress. We are actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of becoming the bedrock of the global supply chain.

About the Role - Durin builds and operates automated drill rigs to accelerate mineral discovery.

Responsibilities

  • Design and deploy backend / frontend systems that handle real-time sensor data, remote control, and third-party integrations
  • Implement CI / CD, automated monitoring, and self-healing infrastructure to ensure high availability and reduce manual intervention
  • Develop security frameworks and data protection policies to meet regulatory standards and protect sensitive information
  • Optimize microservices and data pipelines to handle large-scale, rapidly growing datasets from drilling operations
  • Manage core infrastructure (databases, storage, monitoring, logging) both on-premises at rig sites and in public cloud environments
  • Drive edge-computing strategies for low-latency analytics, machine learning, and autonomous decision-making on the rigs themselves
  • Collaborate with engineers and field teams to deliver end-to-end solutions from concept to field validation and hand-off

Qualifications

  • Proven success designing and scaling enterprise software in cloud-based, distributed, and microservice environments
  • Skilled in multiple programming languages (e.g., Python, TypeScript, Golang) and modern frontend frameworks (React, Next.js), with strong architectural principles
  • Experience with SQL / NoSQL databases, real-time analytics, and data pipelines handling large, streaming telemetry
  • Deep knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), edge computing strategies, and event-driven architectures
  • Demonstrated ability to diagnose bottlenecks, optimize performance, and deliver reliable, high-traffic services in demanding or remote settings
  • Solid security mindset, including expertise in authentication, encryption, and compliance (e.g., SOC2, ISO 27001)
  • Industrial or hardware-adjacent experience (real-time data acquisition, embedded systems, rugged environments) is a plus
  • In this role you will

  • Own a product vertical with the opportunity to build a team around yourself over time
  • Work directly with our internal and external customers to drive our roadmap
  • Get to build alongside the best engineers and mining operators in the world
  • Be given autonomy and virtually unlimited room to grow
  • Travel all over the world
  • This might be a good fit if you

  • Have a bias to action, take pride in your work, and care more about getting to the right solution than being right
  • Have led critical projects or initiatives
  • Have extensive experience shipping modern, full-stack software
  • Are product-minded and user-driven
  • Are excited to work in a fast-paced environment with high stakes and quick iteration cycles
  • Are a previous or future founder — if you leave Durin to start a company, we'll do everything to support you, including investing in you and introducing you to Durin's investors
  • Can work from our Los Angeles headquarters (El Segundo)
  • Compensation - This role will pay $150,000–$180,000. Aside from base compensation, we invest heavily in our team. You’ll have the freedom and resources you need to excel.
