The Role

Aliz is conquering the world by building scalable applications, IT infrastructures, Big Data, and Machine Learning solutions as a certified Google Partner. With offices in Budapest, Singapore, Berlin, and Jakarta, we provide services to a variety of clients from disruptive unicorns to large and reputable enterprises.

We’re expanding our dynamic backend team that’s supporting an international scale-up with the development of a robust, enterprise-grade document management system. We’re looking for a talented Lead Software Engineer experienced with Java, who’s ready to deliver high-quality solutions on Google Cloud Platform as part of a long-term, high-impact project.

You’ll join a team of experienced GCP and Java professionals who have been shaping the backend architecture of this product for over a decade — contributing to a scalable, cloud-native system used by customers worldwide.

You are looking for us if you...
  • believe that cloud is the future, and an opportunity to work on a cloud-based product with millions of users sounds exciting to you.
  • like to bridge real business problems and complex technical challenges.
  • solely designing complex solutions doesn’t satisfy you because you also want to actively take part in the implementation of your plans, and you love writing demanding code.
  • love experimentation with new technologies even if the toolkit is immature.
  • love thinking out of the box to get around obstacles you didn’t face before.
  • are proactive and constructive regarding professional challenges.
  • don’t keep your knowledge to yourself but are happy to share your knowledge and experience with others.
We are looking for you if you...
  • have a minimum of 6-7 years of Java development experience.
  • have public cloud experience, preferably with GCP.
  • talking directly to clients to understand their business needs is not outside your comfort zone.
  • want to use your technical leadership skills to guide both our engineers and our clients’ engineers on their cloud journey.
  • creative approach to problem-solving comes hand in hand with systematic and quick thinking.
  • are able to make credible technical decisions and justify them clearly to different audiences.
  • thrive when trying out new technologies.
  • are efficient in prototyping with conscious decisions on tradeoffs you have to make.
  • have good communication skills both in Hungarian and English.
Your role will include...
  • developing complex cloud-based products.
  • getting to know Google Drive better than its own developers and doing things with it that it was not originally designed to do.
  • solving complex problems in collaboration with colleagues in Budapest and remote teams.
  • scaling the application on the Google Cloud Platform as the user base grows.
  • optimizing the code and data structures to make the application fast and the users happy.
  • tracking down tricky problems in a distributed production system and in libraries you have to use. 
  • creating and challenging the design and suggesting better ways, if there is one.
  • performing code reviews and teaching each other new tricks.
It would be nice if you also had...
  • experience with Google Cloud Platform (Google App Engine).
  • experience with SQL, Python, and Terraform.
  • an interest in or experience with Big Data.
  • your own pet project, which you started from scratch.
  • experience in customer relationships.
  • interest in Generative AI.
You will enjoy...
  • using cutting-edge technologies and learning from A+ Big Data and Google Cloud experts.
  • career development opportunities with regular feedback and the chance to mentor talented juniors and mediors.
  • maintaining a healthy work-life balance with financial initiatives to support physical and mental health and green commuting.
  • a collaborative working environment with hybrid work opportunities.
  • flexible working time to adapt to when you feel most productive.
  • employee counseling opportunity with coaches and contracted psychologists.
  • continuous training and learning opportunities with yearly allocated learning hours from working time and dedicated mentorship by experienced colleagues.
  • social activities for everyone (team building events, company breakfasts, Christmas, Halloween, and VR parties, sport events, professional meetups, darts and pinball tournaments, biweekly company-wide knowledge sharing sessions).
  • last but not least, a great community. :)
