  • Solid fundamentals in backend development, system design, APIs, databases, and distributed/scalable systems.
  • Proven experience in building and shipping production-grade backend applications.
  • Demonstrated ownership mindset; comfortable working independently without constant guidance.
  • Ability to understand product/business requirements and convert them into practical technical solutions.
  • Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • Educational qualifications: Not specified, but typically a BSc in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field.

Preferred Skills

  • Experience with AI/LLM technologies, such as LangChain, OpenAI APIs, or similar tools.
  • Experience in building AI-powered applications, agents, or LLM-based workflows.
  • Exposure to B2B marketplaces, e-commerce, SaaS, or marketplace platforms.
  • Experience working in an early-stage startup or lean engineering team.

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.
