Job Description

Stuart (DPD Group) is a sustainable 🌱 last-mile logistics company that connects retailers and e-merchants to a fleet of geolocalised couriers across several countries in Europe.

Our Mission 🚀
We are an impact-driven company that aims to build the future of logistics for a more sustainable world: shared, efficient and reliable. We are committed to creating a new standard for urban deliveries that meet today’s environmental and social challenges while offering a premium delivery experience blending speed, flexibility and convenience.

Our motto: “Make every delivery a moment all of us can truly celebrate!” More than 3000+ leading brands already partner with us across Restaurants, Grocery, Retail & Luxury, eCommerce and Professional Services to deliver all types of goods at the tap of a button. Stuart is a highly diverse and inclusive company of 700+ employees with 90+ nationalities working across France 🇫🇷, Italy 🇮🇹, Poland 🇵🇱, Portugal 🇵🇹, Spain 🇪🇸 and the U.K. 🇬🇧

It’s the right moment and the right place for us to make an impact on millions of people, as home delivery services hit a record high. And guess what? You can help us fulfil our vision 🙌

Let’s talk about Backend Engineering ⭐️

The Engineering Department at Stuart is home to over 150 engineers based across Europe. Many are based in our Barcelona office but most work remotely from Spain, France, the UK and Poland.

Backend Engineers build the core of Stuart products. They operate as part of cross-functional teams and they help define, improve, build, and deliver features collaboratively with their teammates. Stuart’s backend code is composed of a Rails API providing both REST and GraphQL endpoints and a number of supporting services written in Ruby, Scala, Python and Elixir.

We have a helpful and collaborative team culture where engineers support each others' efforts via regular pairing, internal demos, taking online classes together, mentoring, and running internal conferences. Engineers are also encouraged to contribute to culture and growth on the team through initiatives like hosting talks, defining team processes, and taking part in hiring 💪

What will I be doing? 🤔

    • Collaborate with product managers, designers, and other engineers to understand the problems the business is solving, and align on the best solution.
    • Create well designed and tested changes to our codebases which fit with the principles of distributed systems and service-oriented architecture.
    • Help review changes other engineers have made.
    • Invest time in producing good metrics, logging, and observability to ensure features achieve their goals and work optimally.
    • Work with their manager through one-on-ones to grow their career.

What do we need from you? 😎

    • Industry experience working on backend systems - building, maintaining and operating backend systems with high availability and scale requirements.
    • Competency with Ruby (and Rails).
    • Experience working with distributed systems and service oriented architecture.
    • Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL.
    • Fluent in English (we do offer English classes to help non-native speakers improve their skills).

    • Not sure if this is you?
      We understand that experiences are broad and come from many places. We appreciate that everyone potentially has something to contribute to our team and we'd still love to hear from you if your background doesn't completely match!
