Job description

This job position is aimed at Mid/Senior Software Engineers. At our company, a Software Engineer is expected to have cross-functional skills between backend and frontend. However, we are glad to hire IT professionals that are more focused on one of these two sides and have only a basic knowledge of the other side. If you will join our team, we will expect you to develop new skills also on the topics you are less familiar with. This will be achieved through both training on the job and personal training courses tailored at improving your missing skills.

We are looking for a smart person who is strongly goal-oriented and able to reason analytically. This profile should be able to collaborate with the other team members to solve all the daily challenges that will arise. They will have to use their programming and engineering skills to analyze the current code and improve it. They will also constantly collaborate to the improvement of our company processes. We expect to find a person who, before writing tons of code, dedicates the right amount of time to planning and modeling.

We also expect you to keep a high code quality with a “living documentation” approach and high level code comments, in order to make collaboration with other team members as easy as possible. A very important skill for us is the ability to autonomously evaluate your own work and schedule code refactors when necessary.

Finally, we expect you to autonomously evaluate and criticize the design choices you will work with day by day, actively contributing in evolving our projects and constantly aiming to improve both yourself and your team.

Backend

On the backend side, you will work on two possible aspects of our system. On one hand, we expect you to develop a backend system made up of microservices. On the other hand, you might be working on what we define as “the backend part of our frontend”, hence developing client-side code which does not include any graphical and user-facing part.

Frontend

Frontend software engineers will work on client-side code. On one hand, we will expect you to develop the UI part of our clients (basically UI components using HTML and CSS), both Web and mobile. On the other hand, you will work on developing frontend logics, including complex flows for the end users of our applications. We often use state machines to model frontend logics, if you are curious of how we do this, we can discuss this in detail during our interview process.
