Role
Who you are
- We are looking for passion in creating systems by producing clean, consistent and well-organized code. As well as a good team player supporting colleagues and creating a learning and sharing environment!
- English must be a no-brainer as you will join an international team dispatched in different locations around the world (US/FR/ES/JP)
What the job involves
- As a Associate Backend Engineer, you will work closely with all members of your squad, and the Staff engineer of your group.

- Traditionally based on a monolith, Back Market's technical stack has been undergoing a radical transformation in recent years into a distributed and service-oriented architecture. This transition provides an opportunity to modernize the platform, raising engineering standards
- Building a set of efficient and loosely coupled services is one of the main challenges to face for the years to come. But teams are excited to independently control their release schedules, manage their data, SLAs, tools, and – ultimately – be responsible for their own service-offering
- Meanwhile, Platform teams are working to provide a scalable, consistent and secure platform, one that makes engineering teams more productive
- We are looking for an Associate Backend Engineer to help us build & operate a set of efficient, high cohesion, low coupling services with {security, privacy}-by-{default,design} to support the growth of the business
- You will be working in an agile "build it and run it" environment where engineering teams build, launch, monitor, and support the product that they own

Our take
At a time when new smartphones launch frequently but with fewer new features and when individuals want to contribute to sustainability and the circular economy, Back Market is setting out to provide customers with a viable option of purchasing refurbished electronics goods.
The vision of the company is to become the default choice when it comes to electronics purchases, irrespective of the customers' budget. In order to materialize this vision, Back Market guarantees that all the devices sold on its platform are 100% functional. The company screens sellers before allowing them to join its platform and it monitors their performance in real-time by collecting detailed customer feedback. By doing this, they hope to restore trust in refurbished devices and to make sustainability an easy, safe, and affordable choice.
Back Market operates in 16 counties and has a client roster that includes Netflix, Disney, BBC, Sony, and Apple. The company has raised over $1 billion in capital, which has been invested in expansion across new and current markets.
