Rainmaking Studio is a venture development unit. We invent, build and launch startups with the world’s most influential companies (e.g. Danske Bank, Maersk and Jaguar Landrover). As a Studio engineer, you'll work with the technical, design, product and business development team in our office in Copenhagen.

You'll be involved all the way from idea generation through to them being live, tracking the results, and iterating to make them better. For this reason, this role is only suitable for someone who likes being closely involved in product — what to build and how it will work, as much as the technical implementation itself. This role is especially suited to someone who wants to found their own startup one day. All our current team are future founders and we view working here as an entrepreneurial bootcamp that will give you the necessary skills and experience to co-found a startup with us or on your own one day.

• Implement new features in a highly collaborative environment with product managers, UI/UX experts, and fellow engineers
• Contribute to a future-ready, high quality, and performance code base
• Share your technical solutions and product ideas with the team
• Mentor and lead other engineering team members

Specifically, though, we need you to have:

• 4+ years software engineering experience with expertise in open source technologies like JavaScript, HTML/CSS, and Java
• 1+ years with AngularJS, React JS or similar frameworks
• Experience with performance optimization techniques
• Experience with object oriented design and building backend applications with REST API services using Java or Node.js
• Experience designing and developing service-based architectures and/or micro services
• Experience designing data persistence and caching concepts using both SQL and NoSQL DBMS (e.g.: MySQL, MongoDB, Cassandra, Redis, etc…)
• Enough DevOps experience to setup, configure and maintain your own dev/build environment (we use AWS & Docker).
• Excellent knowledge of software engineering best practices (e.g. Agile software development, test-driven development, unit testing, code reviews, design documentation, etc…)

Additional Preferred Competencies:

• Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer or Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field
