Connected Cars is working on an ambitious project to connect millions of car-owners with their vehicles. Our mission is to enable safer, more sustainable, and more convenient mobility to the world through responsible and transparent data collection and sharing. We are looking for enthusiastic and determined people to join us on this exciting journey. Our diverse team of 50 people is brought together by the shared belief of delivering quality work through not only great but fun teamwork.

The position

As our new Senior Back-end Developer, you will mainly be working with our APIs and backend applications to make sure they can scale to handle the very large data sets we’re working with. You’ll be responsible for moving your own code into production.

We don’t expect you to tick every box in our current tech stack. What matters is that you have some experience as a developer, you like to learn, and know how to leverage your experience across technology stacks and languages.

Here’s what we think would be a good fit:

• Experience in more than one technology stack

• RESTful/GraphQL APIs in Node.js, Go or similar

• MySQL, PostgreSQL or similar

• JavaScript, TypeScript or similar

• Dependency management tools like Yarn or npm

• Continuous integration and test driven development

• Focus on quality and doing things right

• Working with large data sets (terabytes)

It is an extra if you:

• Code in your spare time

• Have GitHub or a similar account with sample code

• Have Open Source development experience

The way our developer team works:

We work in small teams of about 3-4 people each. We want to ensure independent decision-making within the teams thus we focus on minimal overhead and bureaucracy. This means that teams have a lot of influence on how they work, what they focus on, and how they deliver new features and functionality.

We believe in release early, release often, which is why we run several daily releases using our continuous integration and deployment setup.

Our technology stack consists of:

• Node.js, Python, Go, MySQL and BigQuery on the backend

• Yocto, Rust, Python and TypeScript on our CAN stack, React on web

• React Native for our mobile apps on iOS and Android

• Google Cloud and several other modern cloud services on the hosting side 

What is in it for you?

• Be part of a journey to develop the car owner experience of the future

• Highly skilled co-workers to learn from

• Competitive salary and pension scheme

• Flexible working hours and location

• Employee discounts on cars, repairs, etc. for yourself and your family

• Company car package

• Laptop of your choice

• Cheap lunch scheme

• All the snack you can eat and drink

• Strong open source commitment
