  • Experience with Python or Go development
  • Strong object‑oriented development skills
  • Working knowledge of continuous integration tools such as Jenkins, CircleCI, GitHub Actions
  • Knowledge of networking technologies and fundamentals
  • Solid understanding of the Linux system architecture
  • Complex abstract thinking
  • 2–4 weeks of international travel per year
  • Nice‑to‑have skills

  • Ability to develop and ship modern production‑grade web applications
  • Ability to operate data platforms : key‑value stores, relational or document databases, event buses
  • Data collection and analytics skills for large multidimensional datasets
  • Experience with AI / ML pipelines
  • Experience with cloud technologies such as OpenStack, Kubernetes, Terraform and AWS
  • What we offer

  • Distributed work environment with twice‑yearly team sprints in person
  • Personal learning and development budget of USD 2,000 per year
  • Annual compensation review
  • Recognition rewards
  • Annual holiday leave
  • Maternity and paternity leave
  • Team Member Assistance Program & Wellness Platform
  • Opportunity to travel to new locations to meet colleagues
  • Priority Pass and travel upgrades for long‑haul company events
