  • Focused on delivery towards DevOps mentality
  • Contributing to the EU engineering community through our guilds
  • Driving in the discovery process by having access to the research panel
  • Shaping the OKRs alongside product managers

About you:

  • You have a background in either Kotlin, Go, or PHP — but more importantly, have a proven track record of picking up new technologies quickly
  • You're experienced with large scale web applications
  • Passionate about TDD and you're not shy about it
  • Used to work with CI/CD practices, RESTful APIs, and AWS
  • You're tech-savvy active in open source communities to find the latest solutions in the market
  • Being able to help other engineers grow

  • Work with an international team of top engineers learning from one another.
  • Any equipment you might need 
  • A budget for education, training, and conferences.
