  • Efficient, practical programmer with a record of producing maintainable code
  • Great communication skills and ability to explain complex technical concepts to a varied audience
  • Experience leading technical teams and mentoring engineers

Work-life balance is extremely important to us

Our employees can choose what works best for them: work in one of our offices, be fully remote or the best of both worlds! We believe in a flexible working environment to allow Britelings to perform at their best ensuring a healthy work-life balance. We have recently implemented Britebreak Fridays: all Britelings turn off their computers and take the first Friday of every month off to focus on their wellbeing.
