As a global leader in enterprise recruitment software, SmartRecruiters offers a cloud-based global Hiring Success platform that allows teams to attract, select, and hire the best talent. 4,000 companies worldwide rely on SmartRecruiters to achieve hiring success—including brands like Bosch, LinkedIn, Skechers, and Visa—using recruitment marketing, CRM, AI, ATS, and a marketplace of 600+ connected vendors all within one scalable platform.

SmartRecruiters was recognized by Forbes as one of the Best Employers in 2020. We are proud to offer a collaborative, diverse, and remote-friendly work environment, as well as competitive salaries and generous equity. We believe in promotion from within, so high performance can lead to upward mobility. Needless to say, we make sure you’re taken care of. Our inclusive office environment welcomes and respects all.

Job Description

Our engineering team solves one of the most important problems of the modern economy - connecting great people with great jobs. We believe this problem can only be solved with technology, and we developed a software platform that has supported over 100M job seekers to date (with 5M joining every month). We are looking for a backend engineer to help us build the next chapter of that vision. You may be located anywhere in Germany or Poland and work remotely or out of one of our hub offices. 

We designed our R&D structure based on the empowered product teams model. It means our teams are responsible for business outcomes and have autonomy in solving problems in the way that “customers love yet works for the business” (yes, we are heavily influenced by this and this).

Our technology platform is a SaaS product hosted on AWS (and soon also GCP). Our system is composed of hundreds of independent services (each sitting on Docker, orchestrated by Kubernetes).

We build most of our services in Java, Javascript (Node.js), and Python. We have a strong CI/CD culture, and we currently run 40 production deployments per engineer per month.

What you’ll deliver: 

  • Contribute to a full life-cycle of the product (including problem discovery, prototyping, design, implementation, and measuring adoption)

  • Build services with Java / Node.js (Express, Nest.js) on top of Kubernetes/AWS/GCP infrastructure

  • Build developer-friendly RESTful APIs

  • Design and connect to our persistence layer (PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch)

  • Collaborate with other experience and platform teams

Qualifications

  • Hands-on experience in building web applications (this could be a 3-month internship, CS degree or cool project in your portfolio)

  • Strong command of Java programming language

  • Understanding of test-driven development,  clean code principles and design patterns

  • Basic understanding of persistence layer (SQL, schema design, transactions, indexing)

  • Basic understanding of HTTP protocol and consuming/exposing REST APIs

  • Strong command of English language, both written and verbal
