Job description
Online interview
We’re looking for a team player for a small, cross-functional team of talented and passionate Software Engineers responsible for designing, building and maintaining the most successful ecosystems of microservices. Working with a cloud-native stack of state-of-the-art technologies and modern development approaches that work. Solving real-world problems.
Available projects:
-
Colleagues Eventing Platform
Project scope: We are cooperating with one of the largest retailers in the UK, where we are responsible for the design and implementation of a system that serves as a middleware between employees and organization data sources and their consumers (Colleagues Eventing Platform). The platform provides a resilient event streaming solution based on Apache Kafka to keep customers updated with all the changes that occurred with more than 500k employees in a fast, reliable, and confidential way, e.g. information about changes in employees status, like joining or leaving the company, changing teams, being promoted, etc. Moreover, the team is responsible for implementing customer-specific integration solutions for Client’s internal services and 3rd party clients.
Stack: Java, Kotlin, Kafka, Docker, Kubernetes, Redis, AWS, Splunk
Team: Two teams of software engineers (5-7 people) with VirtusLab Tech Leads on top, working closely together and cooperating with other client’s teams. -
Identity - Risk Engine
Project scope: Every organization exposing online services needs to have security mechanisms that prevent a variety of different attacks and frauds attempted by malicious users. Due to the cloud revolution, access to computing power distributed across the globe is easier than ever. Encouraged by that fact, attackers build massive botnets, imitating real customers, in order to steal value, PII, or any other goods from their accounts. Recognizing account takeovers in real-time at scale is a key responsibility of the risk engine platform that VirtusLab is building.
Moreover, the Identity team is responsible for developing a single sign-on platform for all Client’s applications.
The identity platform is processing 100 million messages per day.
Stack: Java, Kotlin, Kafka, KafkaStreams, KafkaConnect, AWS, Kubernetes.
Team: Two teams consisting of: 5 Software Engineers with Engineering Manager and Product Manager. The team is working closely with the Head of Software Development from our Client.
