Design and implement new features for the backend
Original posting
relayr @ Berlin, Germany - Senior backend developer (Scala) - Full time - https://www.relayr.io/jobs/senior-backend-developer/
You dreamt of building the future but find yourself bored of working on the mundane tasks of yet another mobile advertising platform or clothing e-tailer?
We are building a platform for the Internet of Things, connecting smart devices to each other, and to app developers.
We use Scala for our backend (with some stuff in Node.js). We don't expect you know Scala, we are looking for a strong developer who has already established themselves in another language.
The Mission:
- Design and implement new features for the backend
(Scala, Rest Services, Akka, Postgres, Cassandra, RabbitMQ, etc.)
- You will be involved in designing features, not just implementing them.
- Help building data streaming / analytics infrastructure.
- Work on scalability / performance problems.
Your Desired Skills:
- Minimum 3-5 years experience on challenging server-side projects,
ideally on JVM platform.
- Some expertise in building real-time distributed systems & services,
- Experience in big data systems (Kafka, Spark, Hadoop) won't harm.
- Experience in REST API development.
- Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases.
- Good level of English.
We will
- Listen to and value your opinion
- Value and respect you as a person
- Make mistakes, break stuff, learn and move on
- Operate in a non-hierarchical open fashion
- Ask you to work on latest technologies
A small and growing team where your influence and skills will be needed, recognised and rewarded.
