- Commercial experience with Java, Python or C#
- Strong problem-solving and system design skills
- Experience building scalable, distributed or high-performance systems
- Experience with code reviews and supporting other engineers
You don’t need to tick every technology box. We’re interested in strong backend engineers first and foremost.
Experience with some of the following would be particularly useful:
- Java
- Kafka
- Azure or other cloud platforms
- Cucumber / BDD
- Automated testing
