About the role

As a Fullstack Engineer (f/m/d) you'll play an important role in building our product at Zenjob.

If you thrive in a fast-moving environment and want to make a real impact on a product used by thousands of workers and businesses, we'd love to hear from you.

How you will contribute

• Develop and own features end-to-end, from technical proposal to production deployment and ongoing maintenance.
• Build and evolve backend services and frontend applications using TypeScript and Java, leveraging gRPC as our primary service communication protocol.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with business, product and data to deliver high-value, high-reliability features.
• Contribute to continuous value delivery by caring about quality and helping improve our engineering practices.
• Take part in architectural and process discussions, bringing your perspective to decisions that affect the team.
• Support your fellow engineers through code reviews and knowledge sharing, contributing to a culture of learning and feedback.
• Help improve our tooling, documentation, and shared libraries to make contributing across the codebase easier.

Who you are

• You have consistently contributed to impactful initiatives, owning feature development end-to-end, with the ability to collaborate cross-functionally.
• You can debug effectively and make use of available instrumentation, logging, and tracing to find and fix issues in production.
• You are collaborative and communicative, able to articulate trade-offs and work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• You are self-driven and outcome-oriented, able to take features from ambiguity to delivery with some guidance.
• You take ownership of your work while staying open to input and collaboration.
• You are empathetic and inclusive, with an understanding of the different roles and functions within a product engineering team.
