• Set high standards for technical and operational excellence, ensuring solutions are scalable, reusable, and secure

We use TypeScript across our platform, with React (web) and React Native (mobile) on the front end, and Node.js and MongoDB on the back-end. Our platform follows a microservices architecture, hosted on AWS.

Required Qualifications:

• Expertise in modern tech stacks, with hands-on experience in TypeScript, Node.js, and MongoDB
• Experience working with complex and configurable SaaS platforms

• Experience with work orchestration or other related automation platforms
• You have working experience at startups and scale-ups

What It’s Like To Work With Us:

• Culture: It’s fun, rewarding, fast-paced - and we build cool stuff, too!
• Vacation: 4 weeks of vacation in addition to a company wide shutdown between Christmas and New Year
• Flexibility: A flexible & hybrid working environment
