Job Descraption 

We are looking for a highly motivated and experienced Senior Software Engineer, who is very used to working as a key member of a lean, Agile product development team. You will play an essential role in designing, building, enhancing and maintaining our bespoke client-facing software products using modern technologies, which are key to the success of our business.

 

The role is for a Senior full-stack Developer, though UI layer skills are a real bonus. Our software is deployed in AWS cloud using Pulumi, so familiarity with AWS services is a definite advantage. Most of our backend is deployed on Lambdas, but we also have some dockerized applications running on ECS. We use different data storage mechanism, depending on the one that fits better the requirements, so you’ll find data in DynamoDB, Elasticsearch, Postgres or Neptune. We have frontend applications which are written on React or Next.js and they mainly communicate through a GraphQL API.

What to expect

• Independently leading the development or enhancement of new and existing system components, services and applications.
• Providing peer support to other developers, through code reviews, peer programming, collaborative technical design, mentoring less experienced folks or assisting in on-boarding new developers.
• Write and maintain automated tests to ensure the quality of the codebase.
• Participating in regular formal and informal team sessions, like sprint-planning, refinement sessions, kick-offs, daily stand-ups and retros.
• Helping to continuously improve our CI/CD pipeline, as well as the tools and methods that the team uses, to provide as much value as possible, with high quality, for as little effort as possible
• Proactively sharing knowledge and producing “just good enough” documentation

 

What we’re looking for

• Bachelor's or higher degree in computer science, software development or a related field
• Substantial relevant development experience and demonstrable capability of working in a role having senior engineer responsibilities
• Experience with Typescript, Node.js, React, AWS or similar cloud services
• Experience with ETL.
• Ability to write clean, readable, well formed, self-explanatory code
• Experience taking the lead in designing and building complex major components, services or applications, from scratch
• Good interpersonal and communication skills, in English, both written and spoken

 

Bonus points

• Experience with GraphQL.
• Hands on DevOps experience: Github Actions pipelines, IaC - we use Pulumi, but we value Terraform or pure CloudFormation, Docker, etc.

 

The Team

 

You will be part of a well-established and highly capable agile product development team, consisting of developers, designers, product managers and QAs based in various locations across Europe and the US. We are primarily a remote team, and we strive to use modern technology and design patterns, as well as lean methods, to create great products that our customers like to use. We are fun loving, down-to-earth and no-nonsense, and are always keen to welcome great new members!
