The engineering team:

Two of the key company priorities for the next 12 months are:

• the ongoing migration from a monolith architecture to a service-oriented architecture, from a PHP/Symfony stack towards a Java dominated one and from an on-premise deployment to a cloud architecture.

By joining our Engineering team, you will be working alongside talented individuals grouped in small agile teams that each have strong ownership on their piece of these goals.

The core of our stack is composed of Java, React, Android, Swift, Go, PHP/Symfony2, KafKa, ElasticSearch, Cassandra, Redis...
