Backend Engineers Position
Were looking for Backend Engineers to join our team with a focus on application infrastructure, which includes the core data model and event handling for our logistics network, as well as infrastructure for our retailer API.
Who we are
Our Client is an e-commerce-native logistics network. We are built from the ground up for environmental, social, and economic sustainability. By building from the ground up we are able to entirely rethink both the middle and last mile enabling us to reduce the number of miles driven to deliver each parcel, lower carbon emissions, and lower costs, all while channelling funds to community members. At the same time, were fixing the last broken aspect of e-commerce for consumers: delivery.
- Complete control over when and how we receive our purchases
- Can return unwanted items as easily as we ordered them
- Reschedule delivery at any time
- Easy returns for unwanted items
As a founding Engineer you will:
- Model and implement critical flows and edge cases in our logistics network
- Create systems and abstractions to scale our API
- Collaborate with team members
- Spend time in the field learning how technology impacts our couriers
Requirements
- No job in engineering you would not be excited to take on
- High agency and take pride of ownership in your work
- Deep empathy for humans you build technology for
- Eager to learn new technologies and problem domains
- Value and practise clear communication and collaboration
Have worked on high-performing teams building software for at least four years. Have broad experience across a variety of technology stacks. Experience as a startup founder or in early stage teams is a strong plus, but not required. Python Experience would be a huge plus.
Benefits
- Hybrid working
- Generous Equity
- Team socials/events
