  • Contribute to systems thinking : Help us build foundations that are reliable, maintainable, and ready to scale.
  • Stay curious : We’re always evolving. You’ll have space to explore new ideas and grow your craft.

  • Exposure to NestJS or similar frameworks.
  • Experience working with PostgreSQL or other relational databases.
  • Familiarity with cloud environments like AWS, GCP, or Azure.

  • Support with your professional development.
  • Fun and engaging company events, both virtual and in-person.
