With tens of millions of users all over the world, our apps generate enormous amounts of data. Our company is full of data junkies eager to crunch the numbers to find actionable insights, and their skill deserves to be magnified a hundredfold by world-class big data visualization and analytics tools. It’s to bring such tools to the next level that we’re looking for a bright software engineer with a passion for big data and front-end development, as well as a great eye for detail.


A few examples of your responsibilities:


  • Take an active role in identifying the tooling and infrastructural needs of the company, especially when it comes to big data visualization and analysis, and participate in defining the plan to fulfil them.
  • Collaborate with our data scientists to come up with novel ways of thinking about our data, and then work with our UI designers to find the perfect way of displaying it.
  • Help define the software architecture of new tools or that of new features for existing tools, and then develop them. The work will include the construction of complex front-ends to make diverse, massive sets of data accessible and insightful for the rest of the company.
  • Constantly improve the quality of our big data analytics tools by fixing bugs and refactoring the code base where necessary.
  • Expand our set of libraries as needed to make yourself as well as other engineers more efficient and effective.
  • Stay informed on new, relevant technologies and test the promising ones to make sure we don’t miss out on game-changing opportunities to boost our productivity and the enjoyment of our work.

What We Offer

  • Huge impact. Your tools will be used by everyone in the company and will be pivotal in our ability to be more efficient, gain deeper insights and make better decisions, and ultimately achieve extraordinary results.
  • Talented, knowledgeable colleagues. You’ll get the chance to learn (and teach to!) some of the brightest and most skilled people you’ll ever meet. Your talent is going to blossom here.
  • Cool tech stack. We strive to use the best, most modern tools and technologies, and when they fall short of our expectations we invent our own. It’s a geek’s paradise.
  • Fun, young environment. We have near-zero hierarchy and a very relaxed workplace. Also, we’re 28 years old on average and often hang out together, so you might actually end up making new friends!
  • Top-notch office. Our office is amazing! We designed it ourselves and it goes beyond excellent functionality by offering all sorts of amenities, such as foosball tables and gaming consoles.
  • International reach. Our audience is wildly international. Our company language is English. We’re a global reality.

What We Look For

  • Passion for the topic. You have a long-standing, proven passion for writing software. It’s a big plus if you have a demonstrated interest in developing tools and complex front-ends.
  • Reasoning and depth of learning. You’re structured and creative enough to solve most challenging problems independently, given the necessary knowledge. You learn new concepts and skills rapidly, and look to understand stuff truly in depth.
  • Drive. You’re energetic, hard-working, and persevere through adversity until the job is done, and done well. You get turned on by getting results, and always aim for excellence in what you do.
  • Pragmatism. Far from being too academic or obsessive in your perfectionism, you understand that, when getting things done in a competitive world, speed is often as important as quality.
  • Curiosity and initiative. You love exploring and you’re entrepreneurial in seeking out new opportunities and testing new ideas of your own accord. You don’t just wait to be told what to do all the time.
  • Attention to detail. You care to develop quality user experiences for your colleagues, go the extra mile to learn what they need, and tend to notice the details that make a difference.
  • Diligence, organization. You can blindly be entrusted with big responsibilities as well as small, more menial tasks.
  • Humbleness. You’re down to earth, eager to listen to people’s feedback and constructive criticism, and ready to get your hands dirty with whatever the team needs to succeed.
  • Proficient in English. You read and write proficiently, and speak at a conversational level in English.
