We build for the long term, focusing on scalable, future-focused architecture that delivers lasting value.

  • Hands-On Development: Write clean, maintainable, and high-quality code for the most critical modules across our key projects, leading by example.
  • Lead & Mentor: Mentor and guide other engineers, fostering their growth and ensuring high technical performance.
  • Collaborate Effectively: Work closely with business analysts, subject matter experts, and external partners to translate business requirements into technical solutions.
  • Champion Documentation: Foster a strong engineering culture where clear, comprehensive technical documentation is standard practice.

Must-Have Qualifications:

  • Expertise in Python: Extensive, senior-level experience in Python, with a deep understanding of web frameworks like Django and FastAPI.
  • Advanced AWS Knowledge: Proven experience designing, deploying, and managing applications on AWS, with specific expertise in serverless patterns (AWS Lambda) and containerization (Docker, ECS/EKS).
  • System Architecture: A strong portfolio of designing and building scalable, distributed systems and microservices architectures.
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Hands-on experience with Terraform or a similar tool (e.g., AWS CDK) in a production environment.
  • Leadership & Communication: Prior experience in a technical leadership or mentorship role, with excellent communication skills and the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to diverse audiences.

Nice-to-Have Qualifications:

  • Asynchronous Systems: Experience building event-driven systems using message brokers like RabbitMQ, Kafka, or AWS SQS/SNS.
  • Observability: Practical experience implementing and using monitoring and logging stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack).
  • Kubernetes: A solid understanding of container orchestration with Kubernetes.
  • Database Diversity: Experience with NoSQL databases (MongoDB) and in-memory stores (Redis) in addition to relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL).
  • Broader Enterprise Experience: Familiarity with other enterprise ecosystems like Java/Spring, NodeJS, GO, Rust is a plus.
  • CI/CD: Experience with CI/CD pipelines and tools like Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or GitLab CI.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
