As you'd expect, your job will include architecting, building and supporting clean, modular, well tested code; however as part of a multi-disciplinary team you will also help investigate user needs and design solutions alongside our other technology and subject-matter experts, playing a key role in building and delivering our mission-critical services.

As a mid-level engineer you'll engage in a wide range of application development, data operations and support activities, following established design patterns and best practices to support our distributed, offline-first systems for emerging markets.
