We are looking for a Mid/Senior Full-stack engineer (Python) to help us build the future of the Swiss real estate market by contributing to our cutting-edge, cloud-based technology stack.

Your work will contribute to making the rental process more efficient for all parties involved.

You will get to collaborate and access the wealth of knowledge and experience from a community of amazing engineers who come from all parts of the globe and are ready to share their expertise and aid you in your path to fulfilling your potential.

Join our dynamic team, located in six countries (Switzerland, Serbia, Vietnam, France, Germany, and India), where creativity thrives. Together, we tackle challenges, celebrate successes, and keep learning and growing.

Our tech stack

• Our frontend services utilize a variety of technologies, including Vue.js and React, with Typescript as the language of choice. These services consist of a mix of client-side, server-side, pre-rendered, and hybrid web apps. Additionally, some services leverage Django templates for the frontend, often mixed with React written in Typescript.
• Our backend architecture utilizes a combination of technologies. We have services built with Node.js and Typescript, following a serverless and microservices pattern in AWS, leveraging services like Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS, SNS, and S3. Additionally, we have services built with Python and the Django Framework, running as a modularized monolithic architecture in Docker containers on on-premise servers.
• Our monitoring is done mainly through Datadog and Sentry.
• Our codebase and services are documented using Backstage.
