Role Overview
Given our exciting and progressive growth plans, we are looking for an exceptional Senior Back-End Engineer to come join our global business.
Reporting directly to the Engineering Manager and working collaboratively in a cross-functional product team within a tribe, you will be accountable for designing and developing applications and coordinating with the rest of the team working on different layers of the infrastructure at Fresha.
This is a great opportunity for someone looking to work in a fast-paced and changing environment, who likes to work autonomously, enjoys a challenge, and wants to make an impact!

What you will be doing
* Language - Design, build, and maintain efficient, reusable, and reliable Ruby/Elixir code
* Polyglot - All our services are built in Ruby, Elixir, GraphQL federation, or Typescript, depending on which language best suits the solution
* Messaging - For communication, we use Kafka for events and gRPC or JSON for synchronous calls.
* Kubernetes - All our services run in Kubernetes.
* Migration - We are in the process of switching away from our Ruby monolith to a brand-new microservice architecture.
* DDD - Domain-driven design is at the heart of our development process; we like to build fast but think about the bounded context before we start.
* Performance - Ensure the best possible performance, quality, and responsiveness of the applications
* Troubleshoot - Identify bottlenecks and bugs, and devise solutions to these problems
* Organisation - Help maintain code quality, organization, and automation
* SDLC - Be involved in all stages of building products from inception, through delivery and beyond
* Innovate - Help to shape the future of our architecture and best practices
* Culture - Contribute to a healthy engineering culture of feedback and growth
What we are looking for
* Technologies -Strong understanding of languages such as Elixir, Ruby, GraphQL, or TypeScript
* Distributed Systems -You understand how to build, deploy, and maintain a globally distributed system.
* Event-driven architecture -Knowledge of event-driven systems and tools/protocols like Kafka and gRPC will be a plus.
* Experience -Have experience (~3+ years) working on internal product engineering teams, developer tools, developer productivity, or infrastructure products at scale.
* Adaptable -Are a generalist engineer with an ability to pick up new frameworks quickly and willing to work across the stack.
* Inquisitive -Enjoy understanding technical domains deeply and are willing to really get into the weeds
* Pragmatic -You’re tech stack agnostic and care more about using the right tech for the job. Ideally, you have worked with 3+ different flavors, functional, OO, and scripting languages.
At Fresha, we value passion and potential as much as specific skills. If you're enthusiastic and eager to learn, we encourage you to apply, even if you don't meet every listed requirement. We believe in fostering growth and providing the support needed for you to excel in your role.
We aim to complete the entire interview process and deliver feedback within 4 weeks.
Every job application received is reviewed manually by our talent team. While we strive to assess applications within 7 days, the sheer volume of talented individuals expressing interest may occasionally extend this timeframe.
