Summary
Our vibrant company is looking for an enthusiastic Back-End Developer to join our highly motivated and talented team to work on our web platform.
Built around a scalable API hosted on Amazon Web Services, LifeWorks is delivered to users through our native Android and iOS application as well as our responsive web application.
Our team of back-end developers are building Python microservices using the latest AWS technologies creating systems that are highly available and can scale.
Our platform is expanding globally, and with this expansion comes new challenges such as distributed data storage, and processing and performance improvements.
Our team work at every stage of the software development life cycle - designing solutions, writing and testing code, and automating deployments. They collaborate with front end developers too, so you’ll need to have a good understanding about how the full stack works.
As well as building new features and functionality, we are migrating our original monolithic application to the microservices world using modern technologies like Serverless.
We favor quality over quantity. That’s why we take time to review every piece of code that gets merged. But that doesn’t mean we don’t move fast. We aim to deploy to production at least twice a week!
Our team members often have side projects or go to conference and meetups. That’s one of our ways to drive innovation, by bringing ideas tested elsewhere, and each of our team provide input and influence in to the decisions we make ensuring best practice is carefully combined with the latest technologies, helping us to develop an effective basis for future developments.
We work hard and play hard – enjoying fancy pubs and bars - or our very own rooftop when it gets sunny.
