• Create user-friendly features that empower our clients in their Data Management transformation.
• Assist in decoupling our predominantly monolithic application to enable feature teams to deliver updates swiftly and independently.
• Take end-to-end ownership of the entire product, from feature development to achieving ambitious SLAs across hundreds of customer environments.

What You Will Do

• Attain a profound understanding of data management and design scalable systems capable of handling vast amounts of data within the cloud ecosystem and across various data sources.
• Collaborate on software architecture with a strong focus on enabling feature teams to deliver high-quality enterprise software while enhancing the operability of our products.
• Write clean, well-designed, documented, and testable code, adhering to industry standards and best practices, with a strong emphasis on quality, consistency, and speed of delivery.
• Assume responsibility for your work, ensuring that your code is ready for deployment and operation in cloud environments.
• Bring experience in developing fully multi-tenant systems, working with message queue services like RabbitMQ, and thriving in distributed systems environments.
• Collaborate on implementation of AI-based features into our platform at scale

The Tech We Expect

• Our backend primarily employs the latest versions of Python using FastAPI, with a warm welcome to Java expertise. For communication we utilise REST API and GraphQL.
