  • You’ll be supported by a Service Manager with planning and prioritization.
  • The team take pride in the quality of our code, our delivery practices, the breadth of our automated test coverage and the documentation we write.
  • You’re successful with your responsibilities if you engage and deliver together with the team in a way that is stable and sustainable. We value predictability and avoid unreasonable deadlines that cause us to rush or cut corners.
Qualifications:
What you bring:
  • in this role, it is vital for you to have knowledge of Amazon Web Services (AWS Lambda, Step functions, ECS, etc.);
  • Understanding Terraform, Drupal (and PHP in general) is a nice to have;
  • Medium to extensive experience with Python;
  • Comfortable working remotely with distributed teams;
  • Experience with Agile Methodologies;
  • Familiar with PHP and Drupal.

You can expect from our recruitment process to look like this:
