About our Development team

Everybody counts. We are a team of 12 engineers where everyone contributes daily to build and improve our app. We work in cross-functional teams, each team owns a part of our product and has full autonomy.  We do short meetings to define our goals, share updates and blockers during the week. After each month we have a retrospective to improve our processes.

We take ownership and hold ourselves to high standards. Developers are involved in the whole software development life cycle. You will write code but also automated tests, migration scripts or monitor production.

We follow best practices. We are inspired by books like: The Pragmatic Programmer, Extreme Programming, A Philosophy of Software Design or The DevOps Handbook.

Javascript Techstack. We are using React in the frontend and Node.js with MongoDB in the backend, everything is hosted in AWS.

What you’ll be working on as our Software Engineer

Depending on your interests and skills, you may do more feature work or more purely technical work, but the boundaries are fluid, and people can switch between teams. Every two weeks, you’ll have a private conversation with your manager where you can discuss these topics and more. 

Build new product features. We are currently adding capabilities to review files with AI, improving organization capabilities by allowing nested folders, allowing to review live websites, improving our integrations with other tools like Jira or Monday.

Track down bugs and fix them fast. Reliability and performance are key to provide the best experience to our customers. 

Improve our development process. For example: adding new automated tests to prevent bugs and reduce manual testing, refactoring concepts to reduce complexity or improving our CI/CD pipeline.
