About the role

As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll be the brains behind designing, building and launching backend solutions that'll supercharge our Geo-Services Platform. You'll mainly be coding in Node.js and TypeScript (don't worry, you don't need to know Node.js beforehand!).

You'll be working closely with key people within the company to figure out how to design scalable backend systems and APIs that'll meet their needs. Product-oriented thinking is deeply ingrained in our engineering team's approach, so you'll have the chance to shape and lead exciting initiatives yourself, teaming up with your fellow Product Manager!

What you can expect
Main tasks and responsibilities:
Architecting, designing, developing, and deploying Bolt's growing backend systems (coding mostly in Node.js and TypeScript)
Contributing ideas and constructive feedback to our product development roadmap
Collaborating with key internal stakeholders to determine how to scalably design backend systems and APIs to meet their needs
Helping lead features/initiatives from idea to positive execution
Working closely with Product to slice and dice scope and deliver piece by piece
Sharing your knowledge by giving tech talks, and promoting appropriate tech and engineering best practices in and outside of the team
What we expect
About you:
You have experience of thriving in an environment that has a fast customer-feedback cycle and having empathy for the end-user
You are great at making data-driven and metric-driven decisions
You have a drive for leading initiatives and features till the end, even if the last mile is the hardest
You feel at home with microservice architecture and you are experienced in API design
You have strong principles towards writing clean, simple, secure, and maintainable code
You possess solid understanding of algorithms and data structures
Experience is great, but what we really look for is drive, intelligence, and integrity. So even if you don’t tick every box, please consider applying if you feel you’re the kind of person described above!
