San Francisco, CA (remote possible) - EasyPost is seeking first hires!
Full Time - Backend and Frontend Engineers
We're a RoR shop that's looking for our first hires. We've been around for six months now, have funding and revenue, and are looking to grow the team. (More about our personal backgrounds on the site - <a href="http://geteasypost.com." >http://geteasypost.com.</a>)
At EasyPost we often receive bad data from our shipping providers. For instance, SuperShipper (carrier's name anonymized for the purpose of this post) may tell us it costs $0 to ship a package from San Francisco to New York. What a steal! Sadly, this isn't the rate that gets charged our customers at the end of the day we, not SuperShipper, look like idiots.
We are interested in how you would solve this problem. Would you ask the user to check back later? Estimate the rate based on given data? Or do something entirely different?
Sound interesting? Shoot us a note at jobs at easypost.co !
