You’ll work closely with the infrastructure team, building on top of the underlying compute and storage infrastructure, powered by OpenStack and Ceph. Python is primarily used to build and customise our open-source dashboard.
The Cloud team is also pioneering Go as the team's primary language, whereas Ruby on Rails is more widely used within xneelo. Other items in our tech stack toolbox are Typescript, React, k8s, Redis, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, and Gitlab to name a few.

- Senior full-stack Web application developer
- Strong API and database design and implementation skills
- Self-motivated, engaged, and committed team player

- Values working in a self-organizing team environment and subscribes to leadership through ability and knowledge, not title
- Strive to grow your own and others' software craftsmanship
- Largely aligns with the Agile manifesto and its underlying principles
- Interest and investment in building a new Cloud product
Bonus Points
- Previous Cloud experience
- React, Django, and AngularJS experience
- Domain Driven Design experience
- Ruby, Go, Typescript, or Python experience
- Experience with Linux or cloud platform system administration

Overall disposition
The ideal candidate will have a passion for:
- Using technology to serve client requirements
- Programming, open-source technologies, and IT in general
- Developing Quality, Secure Optimal systems and simple procedures
- Agile development and a self-organising team environment
- Sharing ideas and innovation
- Ongoing learning and improvement
A high level of proficiency in the following
- Utilizing Cloud Services such as AWS, Azure or GCP to build software solutions
- Database design and performance tuning (MySQL or similar)
- Software development within the Linux/Unix environment
- Agile development practices (TDD, refactoring, continuous integration, pair programming)
- Microservice principles and development
- Understanding of and development using Containers
- A DevOps background would be beneficial
- Linux systems administration skills will be an advantage
- Experience working with Go
Responsibilities
- Design & development of backend software and APIs

- Agile development practices (team focus, continual improvement, automated tests, refactoring, continuous integration, pair programming)
- Effective communication
- Self-motivation and self-management
Qualifications
BSc or BTech majoring in Computer Science will be advantageous; however, your ability to demonstrate your in-depth understanding of web technologies and sound software engineering practices will trump a formal qualification.
