Are you our next backend developer?
Come join us at Kivra! We’re looking for people with a passion for software development, love solving problems, and that thrive in agile development environments. We have grown tremendously and are looking for backend developers to help us scale! You’ll be part of building a scalable platform using functional languages like Erlang and Elixir.
At Kivra, we are building services that connect over 6 million people, by providing a safe and accessible digital infrastructure that everyone in Sweden can trust and use. At the same time, we are saving trees - reducing the paper that is printed and transported - by providing a better digital alternative to physical paper communication.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll join one of Kivra’s feature or platform teams, and work to develop features/services (both new and existing) to meet the needs, and solve the problems, of our users and senders. Security, reliability, and scalability are three areas we value highly and that serve as a foundation for our services; and central to the work you’ll do.
Our services deal with large amounts of users, data and transactions daily, and our objective is to do so with 100% availability. We believe in doing things smart, simple and open source - and this is reflected in our tech stack.
Our platform and core is built on Erlang and Riak. We believe that you are curious about functional programming and are excited about the idea of working with programming languages such as Erlang and Elixir on a daily basis.
Moreover, we have adopted the Devops Methodology and strongly believe in the “You build it - you own it”-attitude. You will be actively involved in developing, testing, deploying and incident management, contributing to the overall success of the team. In that regard we utilize Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, GCP, Kafka, Github, and more.
What we’re looking for
Knowledge is important but so is attitude! Kivra’s culture is strongly influenced by kindness, drive and the desire to produce high-quality work. How you fit in with your team is super important, and just like us, we believe that you thrive on being nice, helpful and always encouraging growth.
Moreover we believe that you:
Moreover, we value previous experience in agile methodology and that you enjoy working within all aspects of agile development. To solve problems we strive to collaborate and we think that you have the same mindset. Just like us, you are passionate about your craft and take ownership over your own development.
