  • Strong programming skills enabling you to deliver software with high performance, availability, and throughput.
  • Experience with object-oriented programming languages (Java) and clean code/architecture principles.

  • Creative thinking, keen to further refine systems and processes.
  • A personal interest in keeping up with the general trends of software product development.

  • Vibrant and inclusive community, including Women in Tech and Pride groups which welcome all participants.
  • Hybrid work model.

While we appreciate the flexibility and benefits of working from home, we strongly believe that coming together in person fosters stronger connections, encourages collaboration, and drives innovation—both as individuals and as a company. The energy, shared ideas, and team support we experience in the office strengthen the foundation of our success and culture. For this reason, we are an office-first business operating on a hybrid model, with team members working in the office three days a week to build relationships, exchange ideas, and grow together.

OUR RECRUITMENT PROCESS:

  • Initial Screening: A quick chat with our Talent Acquisition Partner to understand your background and expectations.
  • Technical Assessment: A short (home) task to showcase your technical skills.
  • Two Technical Interviews: Meet with the Technical team and later with the Hiring Manager to dive into your solution, as also discuss team fit.
