We all love to build, scale, and grow: Our leadership team has experience building products, scaling teams, and optimizing for growth while working with ambitious engineers from tech unicorns. If you're passionate about building products that make a complex problem easy this job is for you. As one of the first engineering hires, you'll have the opportunity to shape both the product and the engineering culture.

  • 5+ years of experience building and owning a complete end-to-end technology stack (Backend, CI/CD, Logging, Monitoring, Alerting)
  • 3+ years of Python familiarity
  • Experience with Google Cloud Platform (or equivalent: AWS, Azure)
  • Experience in designing customer-facing REST APIs and asynchronous architectures (e.g. queues, pub/sub, lambdas, webhooks)
  • Strong experience with relational database modelling (using PostgreSQL or MySQL)
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field
  • Familiarity with software engineering best practices, such as DevOps, and CI/CD
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to work collaboratively in an agile environment
  • Work authorisation in Portugal
It would be a plus if you have
  • Experience with low-level languages like C++, Rust or Go
  • Experience writing web scrapers
  • Experience developing and maintaining backends for complex processes
Perks & Benefits
  • Competitive salary package (including equity)
  • Enhanced health benefits
  • Flexible working policy (hybrid)
  • 22 vacation days
