  • Contribute to technical design discussions and reviews
  • Write clear, maintainable and well-tested code that follows team standards
  • Work within established architecture patterns while identifying sensible improvements to existing systems
  • Debug and resolve issues across the stack, investigating root causes and seeking support when needed
  • Participate in code reviews, providing constructive feedback and incorporating feedback into your own work

  • Ability to work independently on defined tasks while seeking input when needed
  • Comfortable collaborating with cross-functional teammates and incorporating feedback
  • Problem-solving skills and a willingness to learn and iterate

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience contributing to technical designs and documenting technical decisions
  • Experience with distributed systems, event-driven architectures and workflow orchestration
  • Experience using AI-assisted tools to improve coding, debugging, documentation and testing workflows
  • Practical experience in debugging production issues and improving system performance
  • Exposure to working in agile or iterative development environments
  • Experience writing automated tests and working with CI/CD pipelines
  • Interest in sharing knowledge and supporting teammates
  • Experience with technologies used in our current stack (Rust, Kotlin, Spring Boot, TypeScript, NextJS, PostgreSQL, Pulsar, Temporal and Kubernetes)

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.
