• Experience with some of our core technologies: Node.js, React, Elasticsearch, Kafka, MongoDB, Redis. You'll be proficient in at least one programming language and be accustomed to evaluating new technologies.
• Experience building and maintaining production software. It's great if you've worked with large scale data processing systems and complex JavaScript or Python codebases.
• Strengths in developing high quality software, finding and fixing bugs, debugging issues and liaising with other internal team members.
