Your profile

Let's talk about you!
Now you may wonder what frameworks, tools, and languages you need to master. We believe that problem solving, creativity, and drive are more important than tools that can be picked up. However, the following references will give a guideline of what experiences we think might be helpful:

You have developed a RESTful API with frameworks and tools such as FastAPI, Pydantic, Pytest, Celery, and more
You are familiar with object-oriented programming languages and domain driven design
You know how to deploy applications to cloud services such as Azure, GCP or AWS
You are capable of setting up a PostgreSQL database, work with ORMs, and write database migrations
You are open to collaborate and learn together with other developers (frontend and devops) for truly interdisciplinary work

We know that perfect candidates don’t exist and thus don't have specific "minimum qualifications". We’d love to learn more about you and care about your motivation and drive to shape the industrial future with us.
