Sr Backend Software Engineer

Qatalog is the world’s first Intelligent Work Hub. Our mission is to allow every business to work the way it wants, with bespoke software that centralizes people, processes and knowledge. Qatalog is the first company to use generative AI to build software products customized to any business, in seconds. We’re backed by top tier investors like Atomico, Mosaic, and Salesforce Ventures, as well as the founders of Indeed, Wise, Eventbrite and execs from Twilio, Adyen and AngelList.

 

The team

We're a passionate, experienced, and compassionate team with former Amazon, Google, Mozilla, and Wise alumni (among others) pioneering new working practices. You’ll join a collaborative group of professionals from many different backgrounds, who’ve built and scaled large teams and products. Our engineering team uses the latest technology and develops on a foundation of best practices including architectural decision records (ADRs) in our monorepo, gitflow for our CI/CD pipelines, and a solid base of automation.

 

The technology

ES6, GraphQL/Apollo server, Postgresql, Redis, Elasticsearch, Docker, Google Cloud

If your experience doesn’t align with ours, that’s not a concern. We do care about how adaptable you are at applying your knowledge to new problems. We work in an environment conducive to talented engineering polyglots; language is an implementation detail.

You will proactively nurture the talent in your area, collaborating with them to enhance their skillset. You will also continually assess the current and long term infrastructure needs for the organisation looking around corners for unknowns and creating a proactive strategy and operating plan.

Key responsibilities

You will be responsible for establishing best practices for technical architecture, quality control, scalable design and modularity of the codebase. This includes tooling strategies, operational excellence concerns, code reviews etc. You will also establish the processes and set the bar for client engineering, performance and code quality, and enable extensibility of engineering solutions by ensuring the team builds clean, extensible and modular components.
