Who are we looking for?

Hopefully, you! We’re looking for a few Software Engineers to join our agile team of developers who keep us running and growing. Reporting to the Head of Engineering, you will work on all our server-side technologies. In short, we need your help to improve and keep our API, core infrastructure, architecture, and development operating smoothly. We’ve got big plans so we’re actively growing the team.

Skills/experience that will come in handy:
  • Core Java skills: J2SE/J2EE, Spring
  • Supporting skills: Git, Maven, REST, Mysql, Redis, AWS (Beanstalk, RDS, DynamoDB), OAuth 
  • Familiarity with libraries: Apache Commons, Apache HTTP Client, java.time (JSR 310)
  • Nice to have: Twilio APIs, Google APIs, WebDAV/CalDAV
  • Ideally, you will have a min of 4 years of experience in a similar role

What you will do in a typical day:
  • Work on assigned code implementation tasks
  • Contribute to problem-solving
  • Aid in the daily monitoring and maintenance of our APIs, services, and processes
  • Implement new solutions and add additional functionality to the underlying code base, designed to be scalable and robust
  • Sip your coffee while discussing recipes on Slack with your teammates (our chat is called youcancookme and it’s delicious)
  • Generate a clean, maintainable, and testable code
  • Continuously improve the current codebase as you go along, refactoring and proposing solutions

Location:
This is a fully remote position. Most of us are located in the UK, Spain, Portugal and other European countries. The best fit for our team would be if you live in a time zone no more than 2 hours +/- GMT.

Now enough of the nitty-gritty, let’s get to the fun part. What can we offer you?
  • In a shocking twist of events, the first thing we offer is...money! We aim to be fully transparent so all salaries are public inside the company. You will get a salary based on your experience: 50,000 - 80,000 EUR
  • We’ll also pay for your stuff. Your equipment and tools (of your choice), including wifi, office, or co-working space are all covered
  • Lots of time to rest. Everyone gets 25 days of paid vacation and all local public holidays. Work-life balance is protected
  • Fully-funded leave policies for parents
  • We offer private health / dental insurance or contributions in most countries where we have employees (although some local exceptions apply)
  • International travel/company retreats. We may be fully remote, but we love to meet up in person
  • A fantastic group of people we feel lucky to work with (we may be biased on this one)
