Your profile – this is what we expect from you

• You have great experience in application development (Go, Typescript is a plus) and understand distributed systems design.
• You know how to build qualitative and easy‑to‑maintain software and can support our development teams by digging into their code to understand what they are aiming for.
• You have a solid understanding of infrastructure components (Terraform, Ansible, Helm, Kubernetes) and CI/CD flows, and you are able to maintain and upgrade critical system components.
• You favor simple, high‑impact solutions, avoid overengineering, and deliver tailored increments that meet real developer needs.
• You embrace AI‑driven development and utilize modern AI tools to increase your efficiency so you can focus on problem‑solving and high‑quality output within a fast‑paced environment.
• You are fluent in English (C1) and enjoy working in an international environment.
