Description du poste

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our engineering team and work on a large-scale production application.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys solving complex technical challenges, working on modern technologies, and taking ownership of products used by real users.

• CI/CD pipelines
• Cloud-based deployment

You’ll work closely with our existing DevOps engineer to improve deployments, infrastructure, scalability, and application performance.
