On a personal note, we are looking for a problem solver with a proactive ‘get things done’ attitude, who has confident and strong communication skills, thrives in fast-paced collaborative environments and is always eager to learn and embrace new challenges. A person who likes to inspire, influence, and share knowledge with people.

Here is what we had in mind for you:

• Own architecture, design, and technology decisions across startup projects
• Involve your team in research and POCs and challenge your teammates to propose solutions
• Collaborate with the team to identify and solve challenging problems
• Contribute to product discovery to identify feasible, high-impact solutions aligned with product objectives
• Understand the technical complexity of implementing a proposed solution for the given product goal, analyze alternative approaches, and provide recommendations for the most suitable technical solution
• Understand the client's organizational issues which negatively impact software development and suggest high-level improvements
• Liaise with stakeholders to ensure projects are completed to the agreed technical standard
• Lead by example through hands-on code contributions and support the team in working according to agreed agile principles
• Contribute to software engineering best practices across the department
• Support your colleagues by sharing your knowledge and insights openly and kindly
• Support the pre-sales process by understanding the customer's pain points coming from the technical aspects of the product.

• You have fluency in writing production-level code in at least a few of the tools of our tech stack (see below)
• You have the ability to detach from a problem, see it from another perspective, and don’t go down the rabbit holes
• You have strong and confident communication skills (written, verbal, presentation) and you can adapt it to the given audience (non-/technical, business, ...). Oh yes - all in English - sorry Yoda, no way around this one!
• You like collaborating with people while building a product - be it your team or stakeholder
• You thrive in taking ownership, tackling challenges, and achieving results
• You contribute valuable recommendations and know how to influence the environment
• You have a deep understanding of user-facing web applications, system design, and data structures and when to apply them
• You are familiar with testing strategies and approaches (TDD, E2E, etc.) and know when and how to apply them for maximum benefit of the business
• You have experience with deploying applications from the discovery phase up to scaling (simple setups up to AWS/GCP/Azure)
• You have experience writing technical documentation (Design documents, RFC, ADR, …)

• Major FE JS frameworks (React.js, Angular, Vue, Svelte)
