Your Future Team:

The Mission Control team is responsible for live monitoring of operational quality and incidents, with the goal of ensuring that our users have everything they need for smooth and flawless operations. We not only significantly influence important company KPIs, such as accuracy, delivery success, and cost, but we also have the unique opportunity to see our product in action in real life, interacting with physical operations and real people.

Our team consists of one Engineering Manager, four developers, one Product Manager, and one Principal Engineer, and we are now looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our amazing team.

In the Mission Control team, we believe in having fun while working together. Our team is highly collaborative, and we value each other's knowledge and experience, giving ourselves the chance to make important decisions that drive our work forward. With many exciting projects on the horizon, we're looking for someone who loves learning, sharing ideas, and working closely with others to solve unique and challenging problems. Most importantly, we make sure to enjoy the journey together

Some of the things you'll do:

  • Build, own, and run backend services with a strong emphasis on full codebase ownership. Ensure accountability for the entire code, focusing on high standards of quality, maintainability, and scalability.

  • Design and develop software data structures that map complex real-world logistics scenarios to simple and effective solutions.

  • Participate actively in architecture discussions and contribute to both technical and architectural decision-making, ensuring alignment with our goals and user needs.

  • Collaborate closely with product teams and engage with stakeholders to better understand user needs, providing valuable input to improve our product.

  • Lead end-to-end development of the backend application, from idea to deployment, ensuring the highest quality standards in every phase.

  • Continuously improve performance, usability, and responsiveness of our product to deliver a world-class user experience.

  • Mentor and coach junior engineers, fostering growth and knowledge sharing within the team.

Our Tech Stack:

Every team in our organisation has a large freedom of choice when it comes to what tools we use to solve our opportunities. Our team uses React, Typescript, NextJS, React query, Redux, Pusher, Kotlin/Java, Go, PostgreSQL and Google Pub/Sub with Protobuf. We've adopted a microservices architecture, not due to trend-following, but because it aligns with our specific challenges and organizational structure. Our technology choices are deliberate, driven by careful consideration of trade-offs and suitability for our needs.

What We're Looking For:

At Instabee, we value individuals who are eager to learn and grow. Your enthusiasm for developing your skills will be a major asset as you join our team. If you're a skilled problem solver who loves coding and making complex systems work, this is the place for you.

What's most important to us is finding the right match for our team. We have senior Engineers who will be involved in coaching and mentoring to help you get up to speed quickly.

Beyond that, we imagine you have some of the following points on your resumé:

  • +5 years experience in a modern tech environment, especially in backend technologies.

  • Experience with Go, Kotlin or Java.

  • Experience with relational database technologies.

  • Experience with any major cloud provider and tools (e.g. AWS, GCP), Kubernetes, Terraform, Helm, Github actions.

  • Nice to have experience with event driven systems.

  • Nice to have experience with frontend development with React or Websockets (or SaSS products for consuming events like Pusher).

  • BSc Degree in Computer Science or related technical field, or equivalent work experience.

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.

If this is you then we can't wait to meet you

What you'll get:

We can promise you that you will be challenged, develop your skills and have the opportunity to work with truly amazing and competent colleagues. If you like changes and want to set new processes and ways of working - this is the place for you Diversity and inclusion is very important to us and we are committed to creating an inclusive work environment.
