Hi ??

Workonomics are partnering with a developer tooling startup, whose SaaS platform enables engineering teams everywhere to harness the power of real-time data. We're helping grow their London engineering team.

Their product helps companies maximise the value of their data, unlock business value, and improve engineering team’s productivity.

They're looking to hire 1x Senior Backend Engineer to work on their mission-critical Kafka tool chain. Here you’ll be building the most powerful Kafka proxy for enterprises, a critical part of data infrastructures. This is ultimately where all of the company's largest revenue deals come from.

You’ll enjoy and succeed in working in this role if you:

• enjoy behind-the-frameworks development with a JVM language - Java, Scala or Kotlin
• have experience with Kafka in production
• come from a high performance/low latency systems engineering background
• wish to have a major impact building a product that makes developer’s lives easier
• relish the responsibility and freedom of owning projects end-to-end
• want your voice and opinions heard in engineering discussions

This will suit an engineer who values cross-team collaboration (you'll work closely with Engineering, Product, and Customer Success), building things from scratch, and shipping quickly. Working in this area is what will 10x the company, and more.

If this sounds like you, please hit apply for more information on the company and role.
