Senior Back-end Engineer
3 weeks ago
**Hi there Thanks for stopping by**:
Are you an experienced Java, PHP, C#, C++, Ruby, Python, developer looking to make an exciting change: ditching the monolith and building new Golang microservices?
We are looking for a Senior Back-end Engineer to join our team in Newmarket. You are expected to perform at a high level and make strong contributions to the team in rapidly and efficiently building solutions to our retailers' problems, focussing on iteration, experimentation, and stability. This role will focus on the back-end, but you may get involved in front-end work if you show interest.
You do not need to be an expert in Golang but you must be willing to learn, and you'll have our full support on this journey.
- We build new features on top of a modern stack, consisting of web apps (in a mix of Angular & React) communicating through APIs to Go services, backed by databases and Kafka topics, all deployed using Docker in a continuous delivery cycle to AWS
- You don't need to have experience in any of our specific technologies: we're great at teaching good engineers how to use our modern SaaS stack
- We don't follow rigid Scrum or Kanban, but we do work in an agile, iterative way, and try to continuously improve and implement what works for us
- We deploy changes to production every 7 minutes, on average
- Blameless culture and a continuous improvement mindset

**What you'll be doing**:
- Build stuff: this means coding, delivering new features, code reviews, fixing bugs, peer programming and incident response;
- Own and be accountable for features and high-leverage coding projects;
- Structure projects into small, actionable tasks to deliver the most value in no time;
- Collaborate with engineers, product managers and designers to help plan the work ahead;
- Learn and teach: knowledge sharing, chapter reviews, demos, mentoring fellow engineers
- Work on common services, shared libraries, upgrade/introduce new tooling or libraries, documentation, evolve best practices and processes etc.
**What you need to bring**:
- Senior level of experience as a Back-end Engineer including both successes and failures ("scars"), which help you make better decisions
- Deep knowledge in at least one of the following: Golang, Java, PHP, C#, C++, Ruby, Python, Elixir
- Experience in working on major systems in one or more languages: ideally you've built REST API endpoints on top of data storage layers, and understand concepts like authentication, web security, and the way that frontends consume APIs
- Ability to mentor and train other Engineers in the team
We know that people are more than what's on their CV. If you're unsure that you have the right profile for the role... hit the 'Apply' button and give it a try
**Why do you want to work at Lightspeed?**:
- Freedom to do your job and work truly flexibly
- Genuine career opportunities in a company that's creating new jobs everyday
- Build an amazing product and make real impact
- Work with a modern tech stack and learn new technologies
- Competitive salary
Plus, we have a range of benefits that'll keep you happy, healthy and (not) hungry:
- Lightspeed share scheme (we are all owners)
- Unlimited paid time off policy
- Flexible working policy
- Health and wellness benefit of $500 per year
- Mental health online platform and counselling & coaching services
- Paid leave and assistance for new parents
- LinkedIn Learning license
- Volunteer day
- Secure, full-time carpark
- Dog-friendly environment
- Free fresh fruits, snacks and drinks (and cake for your birthday)
- Awesome office space located in Newmarket (Auckland)
