Software Engineer III

Traffic during holiday peaks can reach ten times normal levels, and the platform is built for it. Our office has a quiet floor and a loud floor.

Rudderwater is hiring a Software Engineer III to work remotely from Montenegro. Nobody expects you to know every framework. We want someone who writes clear code, tests it and asks good questions. Our team is spread across 6 countries. Headquarters is in Colombo. This is a full-time remote role. We use an employer of record in Montenegro, so you get a proper employment contract, not a freelance agreement. Flexible hours with a daily team call in the morning.

Job duties:

• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green
• Mentor junior engineers through pairing and code review
• Break down product requirements into technical tasks and rough estimates
• Migrate older modules out of the monolith where it makes sense
• Review pull requests from teammates and give clear, specific feedback
• Design, build and maintain services in Python, Go or Java that handle real customer traffic
• Contribute to postmortems and follow through on the action items
• Improve the reliability of existing code instead of just adding features on top of it

About you:

• Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript
• Familiarity with Git, pull request workflows and CI tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins or CircleCI
• Willing to join the on-call rotation once ramped up

Preferred:

• Infrastructure as code with Terraform
• Event-driven systems using Kafka or RabbitMQ
• Background in payments, fintech or another regulated domain

Perks and benefits:

Salary: €4,400-€5,900 per month

• Wellness allowance
• Co-working space stipend
• Annual team retreat
• Health insurance through our employer-of-record partner

Start: Immediately.
