Senior Infrastructure Software Engineer

At Halcyon Labs , we specialize in safely rewriting the most critical and complex business applications; the software that runs the world as we know it today, so they’re ready to adapt quickly and easily to market challenges and opportunities.

We believe in the durable principles behind Agile, and embrace the power of cross-functional teams, collective ownership, test driven development, short feedback loops, and continuous improvement.
