Job description

Job description:
  • You'll be architecting and implementing backends and their interactions with various data stores and other APIs to enable cutting-edge SV startups to do what they do best.
  • You'll be working with NestJS and TypeORM.
  • You'll be working with Kubernetes.
  • You'll be expected to care deeply about security in everything you do and to constantly raise the baseline of how we defend our user's data against external threats - and themselves. Your implementation will not end with your code, but with a container running in an environment.
  • You'll be working with DevOps to make sure Defence-in-Depth principles are followed and containers are as secure as humanly possible.
  • You will have huge creative freedom and ability to influence the project, so you will take ownership and responsibility for what you do.
  • You will work with your friends in Poland as well as directly with engineers from San Francisco.
  • You will have a lot of chances to develop your programming skills as well as learn a lot about how tech business is done in the US (if you will want to).
