We're looking for someone to join a team dedicated to building performant APIs and backend services that deal with large volumes of data for the company's flagship, global consumer product. Small, high-impact teams require conscious planning and decision-making when it comes to design, architecture, and product features. So, it's essential that you enjoy working in such an environment.

 

We're a team that cares about simplicity and being able to build reliable, deterministic systems and platforms. Hence, our choice of tooling is usually battle-tested reliable software with a robust test suite.

 

 

How we work

  1. You won't deal with the hustle culture. We're focused on building well-thought-out, stable and reliable software and we try our best to ensure everyone understands the big picture and the immediate goals.
  2. We work a solid 6-8 hour days and don't slave away 24/7.
  3. We're a remote engineering team. This makes effective communication extremely important. Our teams have benefitted greatly from good written communication. This includes everything from the product specification to the API spec. We spend a lot of time writing READMEs. As a result our engineers work with greater clarity and planning.
  4. We deploy several times a day and rely on a good test suite to ensure we're not making life hard for our colleagues.
  5. We don't expect anyone to know everything, but we are curious and learn along the way.
  6. We learn about the fitness space and what it means to really be fit and not just Instagram fit.

 

 

The Python Backend Engineer position may be a good fit for you if:

  1. You have 3 (or more) years of experience building and maintaining cloud applications.
  2. You have built APIs with Python, Flask, Django or FastAPI before.
  3. You have experience working with relational databases like PostgresSQL or MySQL and have spent time writing SQL queries for large datasets.
  4. Experience in writing Unit tests with pytest.
  5. You have worked with Docker, docker-compose.
  6. Familiarity with the AWS ECS stack.

 

We want you to care about

  1. Good object oriented design
  2. Performant APIs
  3. Analysing why queries are slow and how to go about improving them.
  4. Understanding DNS, Load balancing, Caching and Hashing.
  5. Customer data and privacy.

 

Our API Stack services use:

  1. Python 3.8+, Typescript
  2. FastAPI, Flask, HapiJs
  3. PostgresSQL, MySQL
  4. Redis
  5. Celery
  6. Pytest, Jest for unit testing.
  7. Gitlab CI/CD
  8. Amazon ECS container services
