About Ocra

Ocra is building a scalable SaaS platform for the mobility, hospitality, and event parking industries. With roots in full-stack pricing and engagement strategies, the platform is designed to take what was previously human-driven expertise and turn it into a white-label AI/ML system that connects the many entities and systems across these different industries..

We’re looking for a mid-level full-stack engineer who is energized by working in a small, distributed team where autonomy, curiosity, and adaptability matter more than rigid processes (but we do work on our processes and ensuring it’s not total chaos).

What You Will Be Doing
  • Design, build, and maintain full-stack features across our SaaS platform.

  • Develop and optimize APIs (client & server side), including working with messy or poorly documented partner integrations.

  • Write clean, well-tested, and well-documented code (unit and integration testing).

  • Collaborate with teammates on architecture, design reviews, and code reviews.

  • Contribute to shared resources like onboarding guides, runbooks, and documentation.

  • Identify and resolve performance issues, especially around SQL queries and scaling workloads in AWS.

  • Experiment with AI tools and approaches — both to accelerate development and to inform our proprietary AI-enabled product.

Core Skills & Experience
  • Languages:

    Python (primary), JavaScript/Type Script (secondary).

  • Databases:
    Postgres, Redis, and Dynamo

    DB experience, including query optimization.

  • Testing:
    Familiarity with unit testing, integration testing, and modern testing tools.

  • Cloud:
    Hands-on experience with AWS (deployment, monitoring).

  • Building and consuming APIs; able to reverse engineer poorly documented systems.

  • Comfortable in a distributed, text-first communication environment (Slack, Git Hub, Notion, Linear, Google Docs).

Bonus points for any of the following:
  • Vue experience in building user interfaces and front-end experiences

  • Experience in parking, mobility, or adjacent industries (hotel, airline, shipping, storage, etc.).

  • Background in pricing optimization, revenue management, or omni-channel distribution systems.

  • Familiarity with serverless architectures and event-driven systems.

  • Interest or hands-on experience with AI development (LLMs, agents, or workflow automation).

Who You Are
  • Clear & Direct Communicator

    • Communicates with clarity, precision, and honesty.

    • Assumes good intent and avoids unnecessary fluff.

  • Adaptable Generalist

    • Curious and eager to learn unfamiliar parts of the system.

    • Comfortable wearing multiple hats (full-stack)

    • Collaborative & Feedback-Friendly

  • Creative & Resourceful Hacker

    • Enjoys solving problems that seem impossible — like automating brittle systems or bridging mismatched APIs.

    • Sees constraints as opportunities for inventive solutions.

  • Pragmatic & Impact-Oriented

    • Focuses on delivering value, not chasing perfection.

    • Makes thoughtful tradeoffs between speed and quality.

  • Flexible & Proactive

    • Raises issues early and steps outside their lane when needed.

Non-Negotiables
  • We value humility, curiosity, and outcomes over ego or rigid process.

Benefits
  • Competitive salary w/ ancillary earning opportunities

  • Comprehensive benefits: medical, dental, & vision

  • Flexible work-from-anywhere policy

  • Unlimited PTO that supports work-life balance

  • Stock option incentive plan

  • Company-sponsored 401k

  • Structured growth opportunities

  • Training and ongoing professional development
