We're especially enthusiastic about continuous learners, curious about emerging technologies and open to integrating AI powered tools to enhance our development processes.

  • Excellent communication skills in English, both written and spoken.

  • Responsible, collaborative, and well organized in team settings.

  • 2+ years as a Backend Engineer working on customer facing web applications.

  • Proficient in Python, with experience building and optimizing REST APIs.

  • Comfortable delivering well tested, production quality code in a CI/CD environment.

  • Familiar with the full development lifecycle, from planning and implementation to testing and deployment.

Bonus experience:

  • Experience with FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, and PostgreSQL.

  • Familiarity with cloud platforms like AWS and microservices architectures.

  • Hands-on with CI/CD tools (e.g. GitLab) and containerization (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes).
