Job Description
Kramp Hub creates solutions that aim at giving the AgTech industry a push forward when it comes to competing with technology.
We’re building a multi-tenant microservice platform, serving thousands of users and generating a turnover of one billion euros per year. The product is stable and allows us to focus our time on tackling new technical challenges rather than support.
Kramp Hub ensures a good life/work balance providing you with the freedom to plan your 40-hours work week and keeping in mind that software development is a team game. Our everyday focus is to provide a healthy and inspirational environment, which enables our teammates to grow and learn day by day.
We opted for a hybrid way of working, the teams meet for 1-2 days at the office, while the rest is work from home.
Facts about us:
We use state-of-the-art technologies without legacy systems dragging the team down.
We natively use the cloud, all our infra is maintained as code, we have no on-premise hardware.
We deliver everything via mature, declarative CI/CD pipelines.
Our tech stack: Go, Java, GCP, Docker, Spring Boot.
We have multiple development domain teams with about 40 engineers in total splitted into the following teams - 5 Back End, Data, 3 Front End, and a Mobile. Every team is working on different functionalities of the features.
Every team has its Product Owner and around 4 developers.
Our Architecture team has a bunch of experience and is always ready to help.
Everyone is invited to take part in making architectural decisions.
We follow the approach: “You build it, you own it, you love it”.
Concepts and technologies that you will work with:
Docker
Languages: Go, Java
Relational (Postgres), document and graph databases (e.g. Neo4j)
Elastic Search
gRPC
Pub/Sub
Google Cloud Platform
If you have worked with a part of the tech stack mentioned above and you are open and curious to learn the rest - we would be happy to receive your application! If you are coming from a cloud environment background it is highly likely that you will be able to land well into the team.
What keeps us busy at the moment:
Restructuring our e-commerce platform to accommodate a marketplace business model - personalizing the platform based on the user behavior.
Enhancing the e-commerce platform with new features (data-driven, personalization project).
Promoting experimentation mindset in the delivery of the new features.
Entering a new phase for our team - onboarding new tenants.
What we can offer:
Startup environment with a financial backbone of a corporate group we are a part of (Kramp Group).
A mature management team that has a clear vision of the company's development and specified goals.
Flat hierarchy and a transparent environment where your feedback is always welcome.
Guilds where you can improve at what interests you (for example infrastructure guild, code quality guild etc).
Room for smart experimentation. We appreciate people bringing new things to the table to get better results together.
International crowd (20+ nationalities) with different backgrounds and knowledge to learn from.
Home office setup - we will equip your home with what is needed to work comfortably.
Personal and professional development - we find constant learning pretty important, so we will help you out with your initiatives to keep the learning curve steep.

We're looking for people who could land a job at the likes of Google, Amazon, or Microsoft - but prefer the excitement, challenge, and daring of being part of a disruptive startup. We focus on your talents and personality - your background, origin, or gender will never make a difference to us.

Bachelor's degree in Engineering or Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
6 years of software development experience.
Software development experience in C/C++, C#, Java, Python, Go, or similar.
Experience architecting and developing solutions to ambiguous problems with significant impact.

Responsibilities of the role:
Design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and improve the software.
Lead designs of major software components, systems, and features.
Build our platforms, systems, and infrastructure using your background in distributed systems, API design, and Kubernetes.

Job Description
Organise is striving to build a team that reflects the diversity of our community and is truly inclusive. We welcome applications from under-represented groups, particularly people of colour, trans and non-binary people, new parents, and disabled people.
💫 Who we are
Organise is a fast-growing startup on a mission to give everyone the tools, network and confidence to improve their life at work. Our vision is for a world in which decent, fairly paid work is available and accessible to all, and where all of us are treated with dignity and respect at work.
More than 1 million people are already using Organise. We put power in people’s hands, building a progressive force for change inside companies.
The Organise staff team pride ourselves on nimble, focused workplace campaigns. That means our team is decisive, ambitious and happy to take risks. We’re characterised by our energy and enthusiasm; we’d rather aim high and see what happens, than play it safe. We’re passionate about putting Organise members first – we believe change at work happens when more people get involved.
We're expanding our team and building out our platform to include a peer-to-peer network. We're building a space for people to build power and support each other at work pseudonymously. A space for our core members to talk to each other in a space their boss can't see. Small monthly subscriptions from members will verify their identity. The Organise network is paid for and protected by the workers. We currently operate in the UK, and are aiming to launch in the US by 2022.
"I can't believe it! It's only been a week since I started my Organise campaign to stamp out harassment in gyms. And already, the CEOs of Pure Gym and The Gym Group want to talk about how they can make their gyms safer." Organise member, April 2021
🙌 About the role and our team
We’re a team who:
Are passionate about making high quality digital products that give our users power to improve their lives at work
Can collaborate effectively, inspire other team members, and start from a position of empathy
Understand the business and social mission of Organise, and work with the broader team to prioritise ideas and features that will deliver for our users
Are comfortable working in an early-stage environment, and the uncertainty (fun!) that change can bring. We get the right balance between thoroughly-tested code, and getting things done
We’re looking to scale our engineering team to build out our network product, on an infrastructure that's fit to scale with us.
We have a great starting point: hundreds of thousands of active users that love the Organise product, a straightforward deployment process, and a big focus on great user experience. We have plans to ensure scalability while we grow as a team - pairing as much as we can, an agile approach to product development and dedicated time to evaluate and improve our processes.
We build most of our software in Ruby (mostly Rails) and React, use Postgres hosted on AWS RDS for our databases, and use Heroku to host most of our web applications.
As Lead Engineer you will:
Play a leading role shaping the culture and developer experience of the engineering team - building a team that has a deep commitment to delivering products that empower our users and improve working life for everyone
Work closely with our CTO and CEO to set priorities and direction for our product and infrastructure. You'll play a scrum master role for development of our network product - inspiring and setting clear direction for team members
Get to know (and work on) the entire product and infrastructure - you'll spend time with our campaign coaches and Organise users to see our product in action. You'll get into the detail of how our tech empowers members to improve their lives at work, and you'll feed ideas from the whole team into our tech strategy
Work directly with our backend engineers to improve our infrastructure, so that we're ready to scale globally for millions of users
Support, coach and develop engineers to thrive in their roles through regular 121s, feedback and team retrospectives

You have experience leading product development in a scrum/agile environment
You have experience setting priorities at a high level - bringing together long-term infrastructure goals and product design
You have experience working with legacy codebases
You are able to communicate effectively and work well with a diverse range of non-technical colleagues
You are open-minded and willing to learn new approaches to your role and our culture
🥳 You'll benefit from:
Equity in the business
Wellbeing benefit and access to mental health support with Spill
Remote working budget

Involved in other aspects of the business, from strategy, management and training, to shaping team culture
Being part of something that's both commercially successful and socially important
💥 Some highlights from 2021
Using Organise, Amazon drivers landed national media coverage, including an exclusive BBC Newsnight investigation, exposing their working conditions & calling on Amazon CEO to lower their parcel targets back to a safe level. They’ve also met directly with MPs and got the Amazon CEO grilled in front of Parliament. 40% of drivers have had their targets lowered to a safer level now as a result - a huge win for their collective action.
Over 100,000 members pressured the government to abandon their plans to scrap the laws protecting paid holidays and rest breaks (working time directive) - including sending tens of thousands of messages sent directly to the Business Secretary in the 24 hours leading up to the U-turn. Civil servants tell us (off the record) that the department were ‘astonished’ by the level of public backlash to the plans.
Dan*, a Census worker, started a campaign when he noticed Census temporary workers were being asked to travel to attend their first-day induction without being offered to have their travel expenses covered. In response to thousands of people joining the campaign, ONS has agreed to make sure all temporary workers are reimbursed for their travel expenses. With this and the update to the Census Jobs FAQs page clarifying the expenses policy, Census workers can start their jobs without being out of pocket.
