Our Collaboration Model

We are an Estonia-based team working across the EET timezone. While we embrace remote collaboration, we have offices in Tallinn and Tartu and we’d love to work with you in a hybrid capacity. We also gather the full team in Estonia twice a year to innovate and connect in person.

What We’re Looking for

We are looking for a high-ownership Senior Software Engineer who thrives on technical variety.
While our core needs might involve Elixir, Go, or Ruby, we strongly value architectural thinking over language loyalty. You should be prepared to work across different stacks.
We generally look for the following qualifications:

• Experience: You have around 6+ years of professional software development experience

• Technical Initiative: You’re comfortable taking the lead on a feature or initiative from start to finish. You take pride in 'owning' your work—meaning you don’t just ship code; you ensure it’s reliable, scalable, and solves the actual problem.

• System Design: You have demonstrable experience designing, building, and maintaining reliable, scalable, and highly available systems

• Technical Foundation: Strong mastery of strictly-typed/compiled languages, design patterns, and containerized cloud infrastructure (AWS). Familiarity with event-driven architecture.

• Engineering Excellence: Committed to TDD, CI/CD best practices, and the deliberate use of AI development tools (e.g., Claude Code) while maintaining full accountability for code quality.

No problem if you miss a few of these qualifications. If you find it interesting to learn them, do still apply.

Our Tech Stack

• Coding languages: Elixir, Ruby, Javascript (React)

• Current Persistence Solutions: Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, S3

• Infrastructure: AWS

• Monitoring: DataDog

• CI/CD: Jenkins

• AI: Gemini, CoPilot, Claude Code

• Other: AWS services, Kafka, GitHub

Note: We are constantly evolving our tech stack to ensure the usage of the right tools for specific needs, and you will be part of the process of choosing new technologies.
