We follow best practices around quality, including writing tests and reviewing each other’s code.

Working in Scrum, we manage our tasks in Jira and keep detailed documentation in Confluence.

You will help develop and maintain services used by both internal users and external clients. With high traffic and demanding performance requirements, your code will need to be efficient, reliable, clean and maintainable.

• Knowledge of software architecture principles and design patterns

• Hands-on experience with SQL, NoSQL, and queue systems

Final Step - Receive feedback and, if successful, an offer!

We believe great products are built by great teams working closely together.
