As one of the first 10 engineers on the team, you’ll have the chance to have a huge impact on the product, the engineering culture and the entire company as we grow! We're fully remote (within EU UK), but have offices in London (with an office dog/vacuum cleaner named Brooklyn) and Sofia. Learn more about why Bound was started here! What You'll Do End-to-end delivery. For us, “building” happens from conception to the delivery of the feature to our customer, and often includes ownership of that feature after launch.

Iteration happens a lot at this stage in a product’s development Bonus!

However, languages can be learned. What is important to us is that you have strong software engineering fundamentals, rather than your knowledge of particular frameworks or languages. Languages: Java Kotlin Persistence: Postgres Architecture: RESTful and event-driven microservices Infrastructure: We're hosted on AWS, and make extensive use of, amongst others, SQS, SNS, S3, ECS, Aurora, CloudFormation, CloudFront and CloudWatch Processes: We believe continuous delivery is essential for moving safely at speed, so we deploy all changes to production automatically after running extensive automated tests Our Interview Process We’re pretty flexible with our interview process, so we’re happy to have some of these interviews back-to-back if it suits you. Just ask! 1. Quick call with our recruiting team. 2. 60 minute call with the hiring manager to dig into the job’s responsibilities as well as your experience. 3.
