About aleno

Over 2,300 hoteliers, restaurateurs and decision-makers from the hospitality industry rely on aleno's software solution: for more efficiency, better planning and reliable decisions in the areas of marketing, operations and business.

We are rapidly growing across Europe, and therefore, we are looking for an experienced and outgoing Full Stack Engineer with a strong preference for cloud and microservice architectures.

What you will be doing

• Work with product, design, and other engineers to build new product features from start to finish: through ideation, research, implementation, and maintenance. For example, you might build an in-restaurant ordering feature.
• Leverage your full stack knowledge to help improve performance and reliability and polish existing features.
• Build and implement a roadmap to migrate the frontend from our old (existing component libraries) to our new stack (in-house design system).
• Establish best practices development in engineering for the Core Team.

What you bring along

• Great English language skills.
• Experience with building SaaS applications (ideally in a product-led company).
• Experience with modern JavaScript (and TypeScript), CSS, and Web APIs.
• Experience with component-based, declarative UIs (we use React).
• Experience with GraphQL (we use Apollo Federation heavily).
• Experience with building APIs (both internal and external ones, e.g., for 3rd parties).
• Knowledge of rendering and design systems (as you’ll be building it up with us).
• Insights into accessibility in web apps.
• Experience with AWS and its ecosystem (Lambdas, going through CloudWatch logs).
• (optional) Knowledge of DevOps culture and tools like GitHub Actions or Terraform.
• (optional) Experience with Meteor.js (or similar real-time solution).

What we offer

• Hardware. The home office budget covers a laptop and a headset (if needed).
• Flexible working hours. Due to the customer support and the daily cycle of our core customer base, 10:00-15:00 CET is required. If you need to finish up earlier, it’s fine — that’s just the default. Other than that, there are no restrictions — just attend the meetings and stay in alignment with the team.
• Paid time off. All bank holidays are off. On top of that, there are 26 days of paid time off and 5 days of sick leave.
• Traveling. Company retreats twice a year are expected but not mandatory (once for the whole company and once for the product team). All conferences, local events, and online events (meetups, conferences, etc.) are highly encouraged but not mandatory. Traveling expenses can be covered in case of being a speaker and clearly mentioning aleno (for hiring, marketing, etc.).

About the team

You'll join the Core team that is working on rebuilding our Core product’s frontend (and partially backend) as well as maintaining the existing features. This team uses our newest tech stack, for which you will play an important role in its future development.

The Wrocław team works in a hybrid setup, i.e., we meet in the office once a week (rented coworking space). On top of that, we try to have a small gathering every month in Wrocław. The schedule is adjusted to our needs.
