You’ll be joining a team of engineers across Frontend, Backend, SRE and QA. We’re organised into cross‑functional development teams assigned to specific verticals.

This role is open for several teams, and we will define the exact team that you(d) will be joining during the interview process based on the business needs and your preferences.

Regardless of the specific team, you will be working on building tools, APIs and integrations for one of our products.

Our backend is built with Elixir and Phoenix, with a Postgres database. We use React and Nextjs for our front‑end. Gitlab is used as a version control tool, issue tracker and a CI/CD solution. Our applications are hosted on AWS. We fully rely on our CI for deployments and deploy multiple times per day.
