Looking for someone to join us as one of the early members of the Backend team. In the initial months, you'll be working closely with the team, gradually taking ownership of central components and features. Given our early stage, we're seeking versatile engineers, comfortable contributing to various aspects of the company's foundation.
We value team members who delve deep into their respective domains, aiming to cultivate a team of subject matter experts. This commitment to expertise is an expectation of every team member.
The backend team at amo is responsible for both server side and the backbone of the client as we believe it makes more sense to have one team handle both ends of the same topics (network, data modelling, management and synchronisation, etc).
As a Backend Engineer, your day-to-day will include:
Crafting the Future
Developing systems that handle massive traffic, data, and an unmatched rate of scaling. Your toolkit? Carefully chosen cutting-edge technologies, code that's practically poetry, and systems that effortlessly scale horizontally.
Cross-Platform Harmony
In addition to server side development, you will participate in the evolution and maintenance of a Rust component that we share between iOS and Android and that deals mostly with networking, data synchronisation and data-oriented feature logic that benefit from being written just once. You will collaborate with iOS and Android engineers to maintain a unified codebase, enabling consistent experiences across platforms. You’ll also bridge the gap between mobile development and backend infrastructure for a seamless user journey.
Feature Development
Participating in brainstorming sessions and discussions to design and implement features that set us apart in the market.
Continuous Improvement
We love learning from each other, staying abreast of industry trends and emerging technologies, bringing fresh ideas to the table. So you'll be contributing to our culture of continuous improvement, where learning and growing are integral parts of the journey.
Owning your scope
You will be responsible for monitoring analytics and managing system crashes. We value engineers who take ownership of their scope, and proactively address issues and triage bug fixes.
Your Skills & Experience
We are hiring multiple engineers of varying levels, so please indicate your years of experience on the application form to apply for the appropriate position.
To ensure that everyone is set up for success within our way of working, we work together onsite 5 days a week.
We wanted to make sure coming to the office was as comfortable as possible for you:
We shut down entirely twice a year, two weeks in summer and one week in winter to allow everyone to truly recharge and to avoid prolonged slowdowns (especially in the summer). These pauses are part of your total vacation time, giving everyone a real chance to unplug and recharge. No Slack, no email, no FOMO.
