Lead software developer

Salary Competitive

Investing is hard. It takes time to learn and even more time to manage. Selma is your new friendly personal investor that does the smart stuff for you and the fun stuff with you. Join our awesome Finnish-Swiss-Austrian-Ukrainian team in Helsinki as our very first engineering hire. We are a bunch of smart and hardworking goofballs and we would love to add you to our ranks. You will get hands-on with developing Selma from day one and help us build the engineering team of your dreams.


Do you love building products, understand the importance of excellent UX and want to help us to turn investing into something fun and joyful? Then you are the right girl or guy.

As someone who will be taking a key role in developing Selma, you want to share ownership of the entire service and take part in building our engineering team. 

Some hard facts of what we are looking for:

  • You have preferably at least 3-4 years of professional experience as a software developer
  • You have a solid understanding of web services, database, and related security practices.
  • You are familiar with at least some of the tech we use, like Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, Redis and React+Redux.
  • You like testing and testable code.
  • You like to dabble in DevOps.
  • You want to get things done, take responsibility, share ownership and learn new things.

 

What you’ll get

  • A chance to be part of Selma in the early stages. Have an impact on how the team is built and how we work.
  • Competitive pay and a possibility to gain equity.
  • Flexible hours. We have our daily standups. 
  • Work in a full-company kanban process where you can always see what’s happening in all areas of the business.
  • Full transparency. We share all documents, emails etc in our company-wide chat. 
  • Team lunches every Friday! We have a rotating cooking turn, where someone in the team cooks the others lunch every Friday. You can check our Instagram for some yummy posts.
  • Join an international team! Each member of our founding team of four was born in a different country. Most of the time we speak English at the office, but on most days you will hear at least some Finnish and German flying around as well. Our main office is in Helsinki, Finland. We have a subsidiary and a little office in our first target market: Switzerland!

 

PS: If you love finance, that’s great!. If you don’t, not to worry – some of us actually hate banking and investing. That’s why we’re making it better ;)
