  • Proficiency in working with container systems (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker);

  • Familiarity with databases, especially MySQL and Redis-like key-value databases;

  • Strong ability to prioritize and focus on high-impact work.

Nice to have:

  • Basic experience with Python, Bash, Go, or other languages for custom automation scripting;
  • Experience with Kafka/Redpanda;
  • Experience with RabbitMQ;
  • Experience with HAProxy.

Salary & Benefits:

  • Gross salary: from 3000 EUR/month to 6300 EUR/month. Keep in mind that we are open to discussing a different salary based on your skills and experience.
  • Growth & Learning: 40+ internal learning options, external conferences, mentorship, and year-round knowledge-sharing.
  • Health & Well-being: Private health insurance, psychotherapy, on-site well-being consultants, 24/7 gym access, and a wellness app.
  • Celebration & Community: Team events, an overseas workation, quarterly team-building budgets, and plenty of ways to mark milestones together.
