Senior Software Engineer, Console

We’re a global team of over 400 people, working together to push the boundaries of open-source technology and multi-cloud solutions. Our vision is to help developers, builders, and creators bring their ideas to life with speed and simplicity, by providing a cloud data platform that makes open-source databases, search, streaming, and application infrastructure easily accessible to everyone. 

We are hiring for a senior frontend-focused full-stack engineer to work on our Aiven Console. The Aiven Console enables our users to explore and control their data services via a web UI. As Aiven Console is often the customer’s first touchpoint with Aiven’s data platform and plays a big part in our product-led growth strategy, we want it to be an intuitive experience, while not forgetting the needs of our more experienced users.

We are looking for product-minded engineers who have a keen interest in the business and user behavior, are proactive with product development ideas and tradeoffs, and want to understand the “Why?” behind all things. As a product-minded engineer you communicate well with engineers and non-engineers alike and are interested in how other functions work.

As we are looking for a senior engineer, we expect you to raise the bar for the team through technical mentorship. We’d love you to show us how we can improve what we do. Our teams are proud of what we build and value curiosity, healthy debate, and exchange of ideas. 

Here are some example areas you may work on:

• Own the Console implementation of platform-wide features, for example navigation, onboarding and the service creation flow.
• Working on our in-house design system that empowers our Console development
• Making sure our technical foundation stays in shape by driving technical improvements.
• Occasionally extend API functionality based on feature requirements

Our frontend is built with TypeScript, React and Redux, and our backend centers on Python and PostgreSQL. As such, to succeed in the role you have:

• Experience in leading the planning, implementation and rollout of a web-facing feature
• Excellent development skills in TypeScript and React
• Experience with Python and relational databases
• Fluent communication skills in English, written and verbal
