You will empower a team of 9 talented Backend Engineers, working across different value streams (e.g. Energy or Maintenance), which are multidisciplinary product teams that deliver end-to-end value to our customers. You will be the glue that holds the team together, building a community of practice and standardizing ways of working where appropriate. We believe in leading by example, so you are encouraged to contribute hands-on at times to keep in touch with your team’s developer experience.

Sensorfact is a booming scale-up: change is a constant. The way we are organized is a snapshot of today’s needs, so your job description might have to evolve to meet the challenges of tomorrow.

• Inspire, mentor, and manage a team of 9 Backend Engineers, fostering a culture of collaboration, ownership, transparency and above all psychological safety
• Drive hiring and onboarding processes to grow the team with top talent when needed
• Provide technical guidance and career development opportunities to your team members
• Contribute hands-on in ways complementary to your role, such as by improving architecture and tooling or technical leadership of a product team

The key technologies you will be working with Our AWS stack leverages services like ECS/EKS for microservices, API Gateway, and Lambda for on-demand processing. Core services are built primarily in Python and Typescript/Node.js, utilizing technologies like Kafka for internal communication. Data is managed in relational/OLAP databases like Postgres and Clickhouse. We have a powerful internal GraphQL API to expose data to end users, managed by Hasura in combination with Typescript.

How we do it We do Scrum with 2-week sprints, sprint planning and retrospective sessions. Our stand-ups are at 9:30 and if you're not there you can chime in over Meet. We are very flexible about working from home, but we enjoy meeting each other in the office regularly.

The course is determined by quarterly goals, set collaboratively with the teams themselves. We don't believe in silos, so you will work in a multidisciplinary team with colleagues from multiple departments, represented by a product manager. You will be in the Technology department, the other teams of which are Frontend, Data Engineering, Data Science & Analytics, IoT and DevOps.
