Job description

Job Title

Architect, refactor, and scale a high-load distributed system where failure is not an option.

Lead by example - code, review, debug, and mentor through doing, not preaching.

Tune performance until it screams - reduce latency, optimize throughput, and kill inefficiencies.

Make tough calls : design trade-offs, architecture rewrites, tech debt prioritization.

Work side-by-side with Product Owners and Solution Architects - no "handoffs," just shared goals.

Build systems that outlive trends - resilient, measurable, and elegant.

Jump into incidents, own RCA, and make sure it never happens again.

Push the "PoC-first" mindset - test fast, fail smart, scale what works.

5+ years of backend experience - you've built serious stuff, not toy projects.

Deep in Node.js / TypeScript, comfortable with async flows, gRPC, and Kafka.

Hands-on with Kubernetes, Docker, and AWS.

You can diagram a microservice architecture from memory - and then improve it.

Obsessed with performance metrics, observability, and efficiency.

You think like an engineer, act like an architect, and deliver like an owner.

You've led engineers - maybe not by title, but by respect and example.

Bonus : You've touched ClickHouse, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or DynamoDB.

Speed >

perfection. Build fast, measure, and move on.

Impact >

output. One scalable fix beats ten "good-enough" features.

Depth >

talk. We respect engineers who know their stack and their product.

Direct >

polite. Say what's broken, fix it, move forward.

No heroes, no silos. We win as a team or not at all.

Fully remote. Work from anywhere in Europe.

Unlimited vacation + paid sick leave. Life happens take time.

Quarterly bonuses. Real performance, real rewards.

Medical insurance for you and your partner.

Learning budget for courses, conferences, and certifications.

Ownership and autonomy. You decide how to make things faster, cleaner, better.

No bureaucracy, no filler. Just meaningful engineering work.

Apply now, if you're the kind of engineer who runs toward complexity, who sees product value in milliseconds and infrastructure elegance - then you'll feel at home here.
