About Gigs

At Gigs, we're building the operating system for mobile services—a platform that lets tech companies embed global connectivity into their products effortlessly.

Just as Stripe lets any business add a payment button in seconds, Gigs empowers platforms to weave in connectivity—bridging the traditional world of telecom with modern tech. From fintechs launching mobile services to HR platforms offering work phone plans, we automate provisioning and remove telecom complexity.

Our team of around 90 people across the US and Europe, backed by nearly $100 million in funding from Ribbit Capital, Google, and Y Combinator. As one of the fastest-growing tech companies, bringing together early-stage engineers, product builders, and business athletes from companies like Stripe, Airbnb, and Shopify. We're tackling deep technical and regulatory challenges to make connectivity truly seamless.

If you're driven by curiosity, creativity, and the chance to shape the future of telecom, we'd love to hear from you.

The Role

• Own complex problems end-to-end, working with our talented team to design and build robust, scalable solutions.
• Develop innovative products that empower our customers to bring world-class connectivity services to their users with ease.
• Uphold our high engineering standards, improving tooling and processes where necessary.
• Design, build and maintain best-in-class APIs and services, mostly in Ruby and Go.
• Maintain the reliability of our systems by building for observability and participating in incident response as needed.
  
  

Salary range: €85k - €120k.

What We Are Looking For

• You have experience designing APIs and building backend services. You enjoy thinking about systems, and you care about the quality of the software you produce.
• You enjoy building products from scratch. You care about finding the right solution to customer needs, and you're comfortable taking ownership and delivering.
• You love learning technologies as you go. You always want to find the right tool for the job, and don't only follow what you already know.
• You care about more than just engineering. You need to see the business impacts of everything you do. You know how to make speed/quality trade-offs.
