• Java (latest versions): Powering our core backend systems with a focus on performance and maintainability.
• Spring & Spring Boot: Building modular, production-grade microservices with robust dependency management.
• Docker & Kubernetes: Containerized deployments and orchestration for consistent, scalable environments across dev, staging, and production.
• PostgreSQL & DynamoDB: A combination of relational and NoSQL databases to handle structured data and dynamic scaling needs.
• Elasticsearch: For fast, flexible full-text search and analytics across large datasets.
• AWS Cloud Infrastructure: Deploying and managing microservices using a cloud-native architecture that supports global scalability.

What we can offer you

• Culture - We put our people first and prioritize the well-being of every team member. We’ve built a company where all opinions carry weight and where all voices are heard. We value and respect each other and always look out for one another. Above all, we are human.
• Learning - We have a learning and development-focused environment with an emphasis on knowledge sharing, training, and regular internal technical talks.
• Compensation - You’ll receive an attractive salary, pension, health insurance, paid leave plus other benefits.

What to expect in the hiring process

Our interview process is designed to be thoughtful, transparent, and candidate-friendly, allowing you to showcase your strengths while getting to know us better:

• Initial Conversation: A brief introductory call with our recruiter to learn more about your background, career goals, and to share insights about the role and our team.
• Technical Assessment: A practical, take-home coding exercise that reflects real-world challenges. You'll have ample time to complete this in your own environment
• Deep Dive Technical Interview: A focused session with our Engineering Team, where we'll explore system design, architecture, and problem-solving approaches.
• Final Interview: A combined technical and behavioural conversation with a member of our Executive Team, aimed at understanding your alignment with our values, vision, and culture
