What you will own:
Reporting to the Senior Engineering Manager, you will:
- Write great code. We understand code is read more than it’s written, better off tested and maintainability is a must.

- Design and influence technology evolution. We are designing a new platform with long term goals in mind and are also happy to improve with new technology capabilities.
- Own delivery. We’re obsessed with shipping value; you’ll own work beyond just a pull request. You’ll care about bugs, scalability, uptime and other non-functional requirements.
- Growing together. You’ll review others' work and happily seek feedback on yours to ensure we build a better codebase and sharpen each other's skills.
- Share your knowledge and points of view. We promote knowledge sharing across our Chapters and as such count on you to become an active member of one. Experiment with new tools, present your findings, shape our future standards.
What you bring to the table:
- Strong experience of building APIs and services.
- Extensive experience in Kotlin and/or Java.
- Experience working with Microservices.
- Experience working with REST, gRPC and GraphQL APIs (consumer and provider)
- Experience with unit and integration tests
- Happy in the Clouds. Our Cloud Native platform is hosted in AWS. You’ll be comfortable working with a system that supports users from around the world, at scale.
- Bias for action. You see a problem, you fix a problem. You get buy-in for your solutions and keep tickets moving. We’re always looking for ways to ship at pace.
Bonus points if you:
- Knowledge of AWS native services.
- CI/CD and IaaC tooling experience: Jenkins, Terraform, ArgoCD.
