    • Write unit, integration, and end to end tests to ensure code quality. Lead the effort in setting up and maintaining testing frameworks and best practices.
    • Identify and improve parts of the platform to make it more robust and scalable. Lead optimisation projects and guide less experienced team members in these tasks.
    • Proactively contribute to a team culture that values quality, robustness, and knowledge sharing.
    • Research and evaluate new technologies that could improve the quality of our software.
    • Contribute to the product blog.

    What you are good at

    • Strong knowledge of and enthusiasm for back-end architectures.
    • You enjoy significant autonomy in your role, leading backend decisions, project directions, and technology choices. Your ability to solve complex problems independently is paramount.

    • You are keen to mentor junior engineers and help them grow.
    • You are up for sharing knowledge to strengthen the ability of the team.
    • You strive to be the best in the world at what you do and want to be surrounded by others who do so as well.
    • You have strong, well-informed opinions but are open to being convinced otherwise through thoughtful discussion and debates with your teammates.
    • You have a bias towards action.
    • You are a problem solver and spend your time figuring stuff out rather than explaining why it can't be done.
    • You are incurably & insatiably curious. You probably know the difference between baking soda and baking powder (if you don't now, you want to go and find out, don't you?).
    • You know when more analysis will help and when it's time to move on.
    • You have a genuine interest in technology and stay up to date with latest developments and trends.
