Why are we hiring?
We build tens of different apps for demanding customers through (i) a common front-end code base, with almost all variations handled by configuration, (ii) a streamlined, standardized Twipe back-end, highly integrated with the customer’s existing systems, and (iii) innovative analytics solutions driving end-user engagement through data-driven insights and triggers.
We're looking for a software solutions architect to help us craft platform-ready solutions that meet the needs of each customer. The solutions cover our full tech stack: front-end, back-end, and analytics.
In that context, you will work closely with our top-notch product team and with our world-class engineering team to craft versatile, performant, and scalable solutions.
What do you do?
* You build a good understanding of our platform and tech stack.
* You challenge customer requirements to articulate clear needs - both functional and non-functional.
* You create and design flexible and scalable solutions that meet the needs.
* You document the choices that are made in a way that both business and technical teams understand.
* You accompany the teams up to the first live deploy, making sure that we collect the correct usage performance indicators for the solution.
* You ensure that the design is adhered to when appropriate and adapted when needed.
How do you make a difference?
* You solve complex problems, turning creative thinking into concrete solutions.
* You translate specific requests into generic solutions.
* You foster buy-in and adoption for the solutions you propose.
* You raise the bar and strive for excellence in all your initiatives.
* You have a strong work ethic and a real “can do” attitude; you get things done.
* You have a growth mindset: you’re constantly striving to learn new things; you challenge and steer away from status-quo.
* You follow industry news, regularly tinker with new technologies, and read books and blogs to keep your skills sharp.
Your track record:
* You have a successful track record in roles at the intersection of business and technology.
* You have been exposed to building and designing the architecture for complex systems, leveraging tried and tested architecture models (e.g. hexagonal architecture, DDD, BDD).
* You’re comfortable reading code in one or more of our technologies (stacks: React, React Native, .Net, Python).
* You’re comfortable with the concept of infrastructure-as-code (e.g. Terraform).
* Experience with server-less technology, preferably AWS, is a plus.
Why you should join us:
* The opportunity to make a difference from day one in a tech scale-up, solving problems of global interest in the media sector.
* A training-friendly environment conducive to your skills development.
* A challenging job in a young & international company at the forefront of innovation in emerging technologies.
* An attractive workplace at the crossroads of creativity, design, and technology.
* Teambuilding events like a well-deserved Tomorrowland VIP experience, a team trip to climb Mount Etna, or a skiing trip in Austria.
* Come as you are, we invest in diversity, ensure equality, and encourage expression. We have a zero-tolerance policy for harassment, bias, or discrimination within the company.
