Graduate Software Developer

About the company:

About the role:

We need another Graduate Software Developer who likes owning a feature from the design doc all the way to the on-call rotation. This is a hands-on coding role on software used by a few hundred thousand people. Expect code review, design discussions and a fair amount of debugging. Remote, open to candidates across India.

• Review pull requests from teammates and give clear, specific feedback.
• Work with product managers and designers to scope features and cut what isn't needed.
• Design, build and maintain services in Python, Go or Java that handle real customer traffic.
• Keep dependencies current and patch findings from Dependabot or Snyk.
• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green.
• Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana.
• Take part in an on-call rotation (roughly one week in six) and help resolve production incidents.

Required qualifications:

• 1+ years of professional software development experience.
• Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL, including writing efficient SQL.
• Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript.
• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests.
• Ability to write clear technical documentation and explain decisions to non-engineers.
• Some exposure to AWS, GCP or Azure.
