About the job
As experienced backend developer, you will have a key role in developing our unique cloud/SaaS platform that connects our customers machines and projects, making the needed data available in real-time across locations, ultimately ensuring better workflows in infrastructure and building projects around the world.
As a part of our cloud team, you will work in all layers of our SaaS system. Our development environment is based on docker-compose which allows us to make a development replica of the production environment on each developer’s PC. This makes it possible to develop full-stack with UI, backend API and databases in a very realistic setup for prototyping innovative solutions.
We are in close dialog with our customers to ensure our design is easy to use and fit their needs. We do iterative and agile development with continues test and feedback from our customers and partners, and you will have a key role in the development process.
Your primary tasks will be within the Backend API:
Our backend is based on Python with Flask. We have built it ourselves from scratch with a small core that features a dynamic plugin architecture. This makes it possible to decentralize feature development and keep the API core clean and slim. Keeping features in many smaller plugins, also ensures that the plugin implementations can stay simple and clean.
Your will work with colleagues who are experts on frontend architecture:
In the frontend we use React/Typescript solution from the ground up configured with Webpack, pre-commit hooks, Babel, Eslint and Prettier. The application embraces state-of-the-art practices using primarily functional components and hooks, state management utilizes Redux and the UI is based on the Material-UI component library.
Your profile
You have been coding for many years, either in professionals or in private projects, and you will describe yourself as a truly strong programmer. You have a passion for doing great software design and you really enjoy trying out new tools and techniques.
Your mission in previous jobs has not been to endlessly develop or over-engineer solutions, but rather using just the necessary energy and resources to achieve the required performance. In doing so, you exercise strong interpersonal skills and communicate clearly and to the point. You can visualize the fitting solution and perform efficiently in a team – while having fun at the same time. We imagine you are an openminded team player who is ready to jump into new challenges. You are good to communicate with your colleagues inside and outside of your team.
