Jobs at Genie AI
Must have skills
About this Opportunity
Our Agile best practices are alive and well with communication and collaboration across frontend and backend teams
We are goal and risk oriented - meaning we take a risk driven development approach allowing us to talk openly about the risks of upcoming implementations
We don’t work on legacy code. We experiment and find new ways to move forward in collaboration with the rest of the team
The law should be accessible to everyone, and this is where your skills will improve the user onboarding to our platform by providing a better user experience. You’ll start off by working on the new onboarding flow, and improve security aspects of Genie’s backend by working in the user and security permissions area.
This role is joining us at a very exciting stage of our growth journey so your role will literally be defined as your performing in it.
Your skills will be developed by Daniele (our Technical Director - Product Engineering), and your teammate in this small and adaptable WebApp team is Giovanni (our Senior Backend Engineer). They have a generative culture, they constantly learn, seek feedback, and experiment.
As a Senior Backend Engineer at Genie AI you’ll be joining us in a dynamic stage of our growth so you’ll face lots of different challenges. Some of your key day to day duties include:
Communicating and collaborating regularly with product management (PM), frontend, and other backend engineers to provide a five star user experience - we don’t do silo’s here
Discovering new ways of implementing the solutions for the challenges we face at Genie. For example, managing large and complex data structures as well as sophisticated workflows
You’ll use your problem solving and questioning skills to clearly define your tasks. You’ll work with PM and other team members to clarify and streamline
In executing some of the things above you’ll be doing code implementation, code review, system and database design
Our current tech stack includes NodeJS, Typescript, and MongoDB
Working knowledge of NodeJS, TypeScript, and MongoDB
You’ll be able to give working examples of database and system design, event-driven programming, and microservice architecture
Any hands on experience of message brokers (we use RabbitMQ)
You’ll have worked in an Agile environment and truly embody what it means to be Agile
We’ll want to see you land key messages throughout our interview process, show us you’re a team player, and demonstrate you’re a lifelong learner
(Don’t worry about ticking every single box on the list to be considered for this role.)
Step 1: Meet our Talent Acquisition Specialist, Corina, to assess your motivations and baseline skills
Step 2: Technical chat with our Technical Director - Product Engineering, Dan and our Senior Backend Engineer, Gio
Step 3: A live code challenge with Dan, Gio, and our CTO and Co-founder, Nitish
Step 4: Culture interview with our Growth Marketing Lead, Alex, and our Frontend Engineer, Merve
