A day in the life

• Each team is highly autonomous and owns its own services. You develop, you deploy, you wake up at night when your code breaks.
• Production code must be safeguarded by unit and integration tests, pass static analysis, go through a gradual deployment process and be automatically monitored for business KPIs. Quality is king.
• Peer review through pull requests is our bread and butter.
• Use the right tool for the job. Don't blindly follow the latest fad, but always be on the lookout for what's out there.
• We require thousands of servers across multiple data centers to serve our traffic.
• 10k Kubernetes pods. 5 million requests per second. Petabytes of data.
• You don't just write code, you directly deliver value to our business - you understand the domain, you browse the data, you recognize the problem, you ask around, you align, you implement your solution and you measure results. 
• You're comfortable communicating in English and collaborating with people living thousands of kilometers away.

What you’ll bring

• B.Sc. in Computer Science / Engineering or related degrees
• 3+ Years of proven industry experience in software development
• Experience in developing large-scale data-intensive systems, preferably Web systems

• You have excellent knowledge of professional software engineering practices & best practices for the full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing at scale, and operations.
• You have great communication and interpersonal skills, and you love to collaborate with your team and share all the different knowledge you’ve accumulated with others.

Technical Skills/Experience will be tested in the recruitment process.
