We care about you. We offer competitive health, dental, and vision benefits for employees and their dependents, a monthly gym reimbursement to support your physical health, and a monthly commute allowance to make your trips to and from work easier.

We build confidence with cloud technologies and help clients transition to modern architecture. Our engineers also work with Cloud Native vendors on next-generation open-source tools.
What we look for

Experience with at least one programming language and/or scripting (e.g. Go, Java, Python, C++, Bash).
Experience with microservices (technologies like Docker, Kubernetes, Mesos) is valuable.
We are a cloud agnostic. Any cloud experience (AWS, Google, Azure) is a plus.
Cloud automation and infrastructure provisioning (Terraform, Ansible, Cloud Formation etc).
We value consultancy skills and community work, such as open-source contribution, meetups and conference talks, and/or blogging. We’re more than just engineers.
Why apply
You’ll be in charge of shaping a new IT architecture for some of the best companies in the world. We work in small, self-managed teams that take full responsibility for the projects. We’re not tech/cloud service resellers. We mix the best open-source tools and services that make sense for the project. We move fast and deliver mainly short-term projects (2-4 months), mostly working from our offices. We automate the infrastructure of our customers and deploy orchestration layers on top of it to run apps and data.
All our engineers are encouraged to share their knowledge at conferences and within the company. We consider ourselves a continuous learning company. There are no rockstars here, just people that wanna grow themselves and their community. Switching between projects/roles/offices is possible and quite common.
Based on our working product we would like to improve our cross-technology blockchain application for access rights and need a team member who drives the development right from the start. Therefore, we need support in the development of a blockchain based access management solution with following focus areas:
• Set up and maintenance of a decentralized network
• Programming of the function to create and share cryptographical access permissions
• Communication to terminal devices via Bluetooth, NFC and WIFI
• Integration of the web solution and of the mobile application
• Coordination between different divisions as Backend Development, IT-Operations and Mobile App Development.

• Understanding the architecture, design, and implementation of Blockchain systems, distributed ledgers and smart contracts
• Cross-cutting operating systems: Mac, Windows, Linux
• Cryptographical algorithms and security considerations
• Experience with Bluetooth/BLE, p2p networks and/or file exchange is a big plus
• Knowledge about continuous integration and unit tests
• Familiar with Git as the version control system and first experiences with agile software development, e.g. Scrum
• Additional competencies in Application Deployment, Scaling, Management and Continuous Delivery (Docker, Ansible, Kubernetes, etc...)
On top of that, we are searching for a team member, who is eager to learn, switch contexts and share his/her knowledge within the team. At the same time, he/she is able to take responsibility in a growing team and have some experience as mentor and decision maker.

Job Description
Gtmhub is the world’s most beautiful and intuitive Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) management and employee experience solution. We build enterprise-scale software with a consumer-grade experience.
We help organizations amplify revenue growth by aligning every employee with their corporate purpose using the OKRs method. We are big believers in the power of employee experience to drive productivity, so our product facilitates best practice employee success features.
At heart, we are product people who love data so much that we built the only solution that integrates more than 150 data connectors to allow for true automation of progress and productivity management.
The Role
The term site reliability engineering is credited to Benjamin Treynor Sloss, Vice President of Engineering at Google. He said site reliability engineering is “what happens when a software engineer is tasked with what used to be called operations.”
To us, a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) is responsible for the availability, latency, performance, efficiency, change management, monitoring, emergency response, and capacity planning of their services.
SREs design and implement automation with software to replace human labor. They want systems that are automatic, not just automated—such that their services are able to run and repair themselves.
Responsibilities
Engage in and improve the entire lifecycle of services—from inception and design, through to deployment, operation, and refinement/system tuning
Support services before they go live through activities like system design consulting, developing software platforms and frameworks, capacity planning and launch reviews
Maintain services once they are live by measuring and monitoring availability, latency, and overall system health
Identify performance bottlenecks and troubleshoot performance issues
Scale systems sustainably through mechanisms like automation, and evolve systems by advocating for changes that improve reliability and velocity
Practice sustainable incident response and postmortems
Basic Qualifications
Experience with algorithms, data structures, complexity analysis, and software design
Ability to work across teams (business and technical) to continuously analyze system performance in production, troubleshoot consumer reported issues, and proactively identify areas requiring optimization
Preferred Qualifications
Expertise in designing, analyzing and troubleshooting large-scale distributed systems
A systematic problem-solving approach, accompanying effective communication skills, a sense of ownership, self-direction, and drive
Ability to debug and optimize code and to automate routine tasks
Practical experience in supporting application reliability practices for consumer-facing web and mobile experiences
We started in Sofia in 2015 with a mission to ship a world-class data management and analytics engine which allows companies to automatically track and visualize KPIs in real-time and create custom insights to inform goal setting, performance management, and long-term strategic decision making. Today we operate across offices in Sofia, London, Berlin, and San Francisco.
Apply today if our mission inspires you! Join us in developing yourself and others as our Site Reliability Engineer.

Live for the wow | Build authentic relationships | Be the adventure
Innovation is what we do. We build, we iterate, we develop the next thing that delivers that wow moment. We see value in building long-term, authentic relationships that last and are based on trust and honesty. With our customers, our colleagues, our leaders, our suppliers or within our local community. Our journey should be fun and exciting. We will celebrate our successes and learn from our mistakes together along the way. We embrace learning and change to grow naturally and organically as a company and individuals. We trust, we’re honest, kind and respectful.
