Job Description

Hi. It's nice to meet you 👋. We know how time-consuming it is to read job offers, and we appreciate your time, so let's get straight to the point.

🔎 What we are looking for:

We are looking for a pragmatic, proactive Java Backend Engineer who loves to develop, looks for creative solutions, wants to learn and continue growing, and understands the importance of soft skills.

To be honest with you, when choosing who’s going to be a part of our team, we don’t care if a candidate has a million years of experience. For us, energy, capacity, and creativity are much more important than a long resume.

We are looking for people who want to be part of the top-notch team we have been creating over the years, who love to learn new things, who are curious about technology, who take ownership and look for agile solutions to everyday problems.

Some of your main responsibilities will include:

  1. Participate in architecture and software development activities.
  2. Contribute to unit testing and perform minimal tests of work before being reported to the PO as complete.
  3. Always keep privacy and security principles in mind when designing or developing.
  4. Translate functional requirements into technical requirement together with the other team members.

 👥 We are looking for someone who has expertise in:

  • At leat 3 years of experience working with Java.
  • Experience in Spring Framework (Boot, Security, Azure, Flyway).

😍 It would be great to also have experience with:

  • Familiarity with frontend languages (HTML5, CSS3, Angular, React, JQuery).
  • Excellent analytical, time management and teamwork skills.
  • Non-relational databases.
  • AWS certificates.

👌 You will be a good candidate if you:

  • Have strong leadership skills and communicate very well with both technical and non-technical people.
  • Are a good team player.
  • Like the remote environment. We are a remote-first company.
  • Take ownership of the project and are self-driven.
  • Understand the importance of soft skills.

📍 Preferred location:

The job is full remote, but it’s better if you’re in a time zone between GMT -7 and GMT +2.

 💸 Let’s talk money:

The final figure would be determined by your location, level of seniority, salary expectations… and overall, what you can bring to the table. We would have to assess your current situation in order to give you a more accurate range, but how does €40-50k gross per annum sound to you?

🙂 Other benefits:

Money is important, so we offer a competitive salary depending on your profile. However, not everything in life is money, so we also offer:

‍- The opportunity to work with an amazing, and talented team.

‍- 100% Remote and flexible work. We have been working this way since before the pandemic. We typically have meeting with clients between 14 - 17 hrs (GMT +1). Other than that, we organize our time how we want. Our only requirements are a good internet connection, async communication, common sense, and respect.

‍- 22 days of vacations + your birthday or your kid’s birthdays + a Monday or Friday off when there are no holidays in a month. (between 2 - 5 extra days depending on where you live).

‍- Mentorship program since day 1 so you can continue learning, growing, and evolving.  

‍- Personalized english and communication classes with our in-house teachers.

‍- All the equipment needed so you can work comfortably from home.  

‍- Coaching sessions, nutrition, yoga, workout sessions, and everything that has to do with your emotional and physical wellbeing. As cliché as it sounds, we really care about people.

‍- Medical insurance for you, and with a special discount for your direct family.  

‍- Friday talks about interesting topics, an annual retreat with the whole company in Gran Canaria, and much more initiatives that we keep improving and changing based on our team’s needs.
