We seek our team members to have an explosive career path and a constant boost of knowledge, and we have set up specific evolution steps to make sure we achieve it – together.

**Tools we use to build...**

Cutting edge technology is what we use and we do not fear experimentation if this leads to product innovation or just a great tech time in the office :) Our amazing internal monitoring systems are here to protect us by providing an isolated environment on which we can go nuts! And nuts we do go!

This is an outline of our current tech:

Our web app is in Angular
Our Back-end is in Python running on the Django framework
We currently use Nativescript for our mobile app
All our applications are Dockerized
Our servers work on Digital Ocean
We like serverless technologies as we are really greedy when it comes to computing power
We use databases of all sorts to suit our needs: PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, Redis.
Data Science is viciously used as it makes us stand out from the crowd! Java and Python here my friends!
If you are curious to find out more about our tech stack, send us an email. We love wasting time and talking tech!

**About the Role**

As a Mobile Engineer you will be building features for our mobile apps and you must be passionate about software engineering and awesome product experiences. You should care deeply about writing solid code, you closely follow industry trends and the open source community, you are curious and an avid learner. You have a strong opinion about technologies and are willing to test new ideas out. You like to move fast and get code into production because you know that your work has a positive impact on the lives of end users.

Our Front End is a combination of Angular and TypeScript with a tight focus on writing optimized code for the best possible user experience. Implementation follows strict UX/UI principles communicated by our talented Design team. We use Gulp to automate tasks such as bundling and minifying, SASS/SCSS for our CSS and CoffeeScript where we have deemed necessary.

Our Front End code is deployed alongside the back-end code. It goes through a Gitlab CI pipeline later bundled in with the Python application’s code for delivery.

Our mobile application is built on NativeScript using Angular to share core codebase with Front End in the most efficient way allowing us to build native mobile apps for iOS and Android, drastically speeding up development and release cycles. Native iOS and Android development tools are also used to build platform- and hardware-specific components. We also strictly follow human interface design guidelines to have the most intuitive and easy-to-use mobile application for our customers.
