Company Description

Hi, we are DevSkiller! We’re looking for people to join our team to help us bring meaningful change to technical recruitment and talent management.

At DevSkiller, we’re proud of our creative working environment where all ideas are welcome. We enjoy experiments, collaborate freely, and always keep our goals in mind. We’re eager to take ownership and constantly look for ways to grow professionally. We learn from the best and collaborate with experienced field experts in a fast-paced but friendly workspace.

We remain agile and we are focused on delivering high-quality software fast. Of course, everything is automated, including infrastructure, provisioning, testing and deployment. Yet, our development process is very lean, with time to market (from commit to deployment) measured in minutes. We are not afraid of experimenting and treat “best tool for the job” very seriously. Sometimes it’s Spark, sometimes GCP cloud function in Python, sometimes no-code automation.A lot of improvements and features were invented by our engineers. I once heard from one of the developers that working at DevSkiller is “the first time I can’t complain about anything”. The atmosphere in the office is incredible. And out of the office as well: https://youtu.be/v2gbxJSihqo

We work partly remotely (2 days at the office, 3 days from home).

Job Description

We build a modern technical screening and sourcing platform. We value testing real programming skills. Thus we are really proud of our advanced infrastructure that can build, run and verify programming assignments in real time. Our system is comprised of a 10-ish services communicating via REST and RabbitMQ.

You will have an opportunity to build an extraordinary platform and solve challenging technical problems. As part of our platform we have an advanced in-browser IDE, git server backed by custom file system and auto-scalable cluster of build agents and virtual machines. We are aiming to build an extensible platform that can be highly customized by our clients. Both in the front-end and internally.

Our current challenges include multi-region deployment, designing pluggable architecture and building seamless browser experience for programming tasks.

We value honest feedback, independence and a good sense of humour :-). Find our complete stack at: https://stackshare.io/devskiller/platform and listen about our infrastructure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o51N4c90jVw.
 
Qualifications

We are looking for experienced Java developers with DevOps mindset. A lot of our system is heavily dependant on infrastructure-as-code. For example, dynamically spinning up virtual machines, containers and build agents. Also, we support dozens of technologies from Python, through .NET to Swift on our testing platform.

We believe in cloud-native development, so experience with any cloud vendor is necessary. We mostly GCP these days.
