Appfire is hiring a
Senior Software Engineer

Summary

Join Appfire and choose how you work, balance your life without compromise, and grow on your terms. Be part of a self-organizing product team, design, build, and maintain efficient applications, follow engineering practices, share thoughts openly, and decide freely about your day.

Requirements

• Hands-on experience with front-end and back-end web technologies (consider Java, Scala, Node.js, React). You do not have to be a master in each, but you should be comfortable learning and working with any of them
• Willingness to learn and use multiple technologies. Whereas we appreciate the breadth, we value the depth even more
• Truly engineering approach to solving problems. Good theoretical foundations of computer science (e.g. algorithms and computational complexity, OOP) are super practical in the ever-changing landscape of technologies

• Follow and establish the best engineering practices: automated testing, code reviews, pair programming, and YBIYRI (you built it you run it)
• Share your thoughts openly and honestly on what would be the best for the customers and the business: you will be part of discussions about the future of our products and Appfire
• Decide freely about your day and assignments - we do not micromanage people and we do care about work & life balance. Your mental and physical health is important to us
• Be the change you seek - if you see that something can be improved, suggest how and make it happen (alone or by engaging your colleagues)!
