What You’ll Do

• Design solutions: Define the best technical solutions to business problems, contributing to an architectural vision that will scale up to be the world's leading research platform.
• Ship working code: We primarily work with React on the frontend and Kotlin microservices with Postgres on the backend, with some older services written in Ruby on Rails. We’ve always got an eye open to assess new technologies that might improve our stack.
• Deploy and iterate: We release frequently to our customers, using CIrcleCI and Spinnaker for CI/CD, and quickly gather feedback in order to inform our next iteration.
• Build your competency: You will learn quickly by building market-leading technology with experienced colleagues in a high performance environment. Engineers can also use our L&D budget to fast-track development of specific technical competencies.
• Maintenance and troubleshooting: Carefully monitor our services, catching errors before users notice them, diagnosing the root cause and deploying fixes.
  
  

• You probably have a degree in a STEM subject, but we’re happy to work with people who perfected their craft via a different route.
• 3+ years of experience working at a similar level in a mature Engineering team, and looking to take your career to the next level. We’re looking for people who have incredible potential.
• Technical expertise with Java or Kotlin, and ideally experience with relational databases.
• Proven track record – You’ve made a demonstrable impact in your previous roles, standing out from your peers. Highly driven and proactive – you relentlessly and independently push through hurdles and drive towards excellent outcomes.
• Meticulous – you hold high standards and have an obsessive attention to detail.
