Job Description
I’m working with a small but rapidly growing, start-up company are on a mission to revolutionise the airline industry. They are currently recruiting for Kotlin Developers on a fully remote basis, although they do meet up in London once every 4-6 weeks.
This role will be a fully hands-on position, where you will find yourself joining a small team of 10, with growth plans to expand. So if you are looking for progression opportunities, and the opportunity to provide a direct and meaningful impact, then this could be the role for you.
Although the company is a start-up, they are already working with some of the biggest names in the airline space, such as RyanAir, EasyJet, British Airways, and American Airlines. They were founded in 2020, and had angel investment from the CIO of British Airways, the former CEO of American Express, and the Google Maps founder.
You will find yourself writing code in Kotlin for their API based systems, and will work across the full SDLC, including architectural and design discussions. You will be collaborating in defining, building, iterating, and testing core products, including building new features for their API based product. The technology you will be using consists of Kotlin as the main language and a Spring/Springboot Microservices architecture, which is hosted on AWS. You will be working on improving and building the solutions with a team of like-minded and creative developers.
Tech stack: Kotlin, Spring, Java, PostgreSQL, AWS, Microservices, Typescript, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, JSON/REST, SOAP, and XML.
This role is a backend development position, and not mobile/android focused. You will need to be open to working in a fast-paced, sometimes chaotic start-up environment, truly committed to building something meaningful, and being part of a team on a mission.
