Back-End Developer at Catawiki - Amsterdam, Netherlands

Job Description

The Role

As one of the fastest growing Online companies in Europe, we offer a unique opportunity for you:

Our team collaborates on solving some complex development tasks that result from our continually increasing numbers of sellers and buyers (15 million monthly visitors and rising!). We’ve already implemented localisations for various European countries and will be expanding even further, outside of Europe, in the near future. And that is why we need your help!

We want to expand our team by introducing even more expert knowledge. You will work on challenges around scale, microservice architecture and implementing new features in Product focused innovation teams in which Front-End developers, Back-End developers, a Designer, a Data Scientist, and a Product Owner all work closely together. We are driven by A/B-testing and automated testing, which allows us to do multiple releases per day on our high-traffic website.

You will work with Ruby on Rails, nginx, MySql, Redis, ElasticSearch, Javascript, React, and Git in an agile development team of 60+ developers (and growing). We have headquarters in both Assen and Amsterdam in The Netherlands.

Your Experience

• If you know Ruby, then great! If not, that's no problem as long as you're happy to learn it.
• Aside from this, we value people with excellent communication and collaboration skills
• A curious mindset.
• Solid understanding of software engineering principles, including some of the following: Data Structures, Microservices, API development, Databases, System design, A/B testing and data-driven feature development.
