Description

Parkopedia is the world's leading connected car services provider used by millions of drivers and organisations such as Apple, Here, TomTom and 20 automotive brands ranging from Audi to Volkswagen.

Parkopedia has the mission of providing the best in-car data and transaction services to make mobility ecological, efficient and convenient.

The Transactions engineering team is responsible for Parkopedia's cutting-edge in-car commerce platform, enabling drivers to pay for fueling and parking from within their vehicle.

We are looking for passionate and innovative engineers to join our cross-functional team as we take in-car payments to the next level.

Are you adaptable, flexible and pragmatic with a DevOps mindset? Are you able to apply good engineering processes to deliver software products of high quality and performance, even with occasionally ambiguous requirements?

We are part of a global team, but this role is based in the UK at our London office, which is a short walk from London Bridge.

The role requires solid and demonstrable experience designing, documenting, building, deploying and maintaining RESTful APIs, which can operate at scale on AWS.

You should understand performance tuning and optimisation, and how to diagnose technical issues across local, pre-release and production environments running on AWS.

We operate a DevOps culture and are responsible for developing, deploying, operating and monitoring our team's deliverables.
