Role Overview

We're looking for an experienced, driven and motivated engineer to join our full remote team (ignore the office location in this job posting). Our teams have vertical end-to-end ownership of entire features, which includes frontends, backends, data, infrastructure, ops and everything in between. For this role, we're looking for a backend specialist to join one of our backend-heavy teams.

Our culture

We are fully remote with team members all across Europe; CE(S)T ±1.
There’s at least one in-person team event per year (somewhere in Europe).
We highly value async communication and documentation, but there are a few regular meetings to make sure we also sync in real time.
Team members have a high degree of autonomy and are trusted to self-organise their schedules and interaction points to a large degree. This means that you need to be driven and self-motivated to perform without constant oversight.
The team fully owns and operates their apps end-to-end. “You build it, you run it.”
We're a lean team and we value pragmatic, maintainable solutions.

Main Responsibilities

You'll be a member of a cross-functional team, whose responsibilities include (besides the obvious "writing code"):

Operating your app(s) using various observability tools like Grafana or Sentry, as well as ensuring that there's an appropriate amount of logging, instrumentation and alerting.
Writing internal docs and keeping the docs up to date.
Ensuring adequate test coverage with unit or end to end tests.
Engaging in design or standardisation discussions, then documenting and implementing the decisions.
Maintaining CI/CD pipelines for your app(s) and making sure they stay fast, efficient and reliable.
Maintaining infrastructure for your app(s) with infrastructure-as-code tooling (Pulumi).
