Our endless curiosity and relentless commitment to our customers lies at the heart of our approach to solving problems. This common mission is weaved into our values: we take risks (be bold), thrive on change (move fast), and lead with trust (stay familiar).

About the job
Our Mid-level Backend Engineer positions require true ‘Engineers’ with Product based mindsets. You will be joining a team of Engineers who come from backgrounds in solving complex software engineering challenges, accustomed to working in a proactive manner, identifying areas for improvement and implementing these effectively.

The role will require you to utilise your knowledge of best-practice software development principles where you can design, develop and implement new features for our SaaS platform, whilst making our product even more scalable and awesome.

Our Tech stack is 'JavaScript Everywhere' meaning we use Node.js for Backend software development. Ideal candidates will demonstrate a core Engineering background with C based languages (think Java, C++, Scala, Python, Go etc), who have recent Node.js experience and are looking to further their career in a forward-thinking Product environment.

As a Mid-level Engineer, you must have a strong foundation in Backend Software Development gained in a Product based environment and are a step away from considering yourself a ‘Senior’. We welcome applications at this level as perhaps YOU are our next up and coming superstar

Your main responsibilities:

• Building new features and technological innovations in our Node.js back-end as part of one of our Development Teams
• Understand and help define our platform's architecture together with the team
• Challenge our product and team members to continuously develop themselves and our product

Besides fun to work with, you...

• Have Node.js Development experience - essential (more than connecting an API!)
• Possess a deep understanding of modern software engineering design and development principles
• Can demonstrate previous experience of backend software engineering using ANY of the following: Java, C++, Python, Go, Scala
• Are Experienced with modern JavaScript (ES5/ES6+)
• Are great at modelling business domains into data models
• Have a good understanding and experience with different database paradigms and when to use them
• Have a deep understanding of APIs
• You're proactive, result-driven, and excited to work in a fast-growing tech scale-up
• You're a team player and like to work together to reach our goals
• MUST HAVE gained Software Engineer / Development experience in a SaaS / Product based environment

Also great to have.

• Experience with Node frameworks like NestJS or Express
• Experience with message queues like RabbitMQ, PubSub or similar
