  • You will continue creating production-grade Python code designed to handle high levels of traffic, measuring the outcome of the functionalities and improving the product.
  • You will participate in some of the hackdays or hackathons we organise with other teams, and you will mostly know everybody from engineering.

In your 6th month at Fever:

  • You will have responsibilities over different parts of the systems, analysing the usage from the users and evolving the platform to meet the users’ needs.
  • You will have participated in the launch of one of our new microservices, from 0 to production.
  • You will mentor other team members through code reviews, architecture design sessions, and pair programming.
  • You will participate in some of the team-building we organise for your team or the whole engineering team.
