Who you are
- Is driving a technical issue your passion? Does customer value motivate you? Do you feel that mentoring and coaching are an essential part of your job. Look no further and apply today. We have a spot for you on our talented engineering team!
- Extensive experience with NodeJS
- A passion for shipping. Bonus points for Trunk Based Development. CI/CD is your default. Putting code live every day is standard practice
- Database performance and optimization skills, especially in MySQL. You can walk us through all the steps in a large query and tell us in which order they are executed and how to optimize the execution path. Explain is your friend
- A “Best tool for the job” mentality. You are not a zealot and know that having a hammer does not make everything a nail. You are not afraid to try something new and know how to build consensus and knowledge in the team for new tech and concepts
- Excellent communication skills (in English). You can naturally work with people from different backgrounds, both technical and non-technical. You are comfortable defending your ideas and challenging others. People enjoy working and debating with you
- Working with a remote team is not new to you but just regular business
What the job involves
- As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will play a key role in building the next generation of a Compliance SaaS platform using cutting-edge technology. At the same time, you keep growing your skills and other engineers
- As a Senior Software Engineer in our Engineering Team, your role is crucial in shaping our innovative SaaS platform to ensure its reliability and scalability
- Your contribution will be instrumental in our ongoing success. By focusing on performance and system reliability, nurturing team growth, prioritizing the product, and fostering knowledge sharing, you will drive innovation and ensure a high-quality customer experience
- Collaborative Code Sharing! While your primary focus will be on specific projects, you will actively engage with other teams by reviewing their code, creating merge requests for their projects, and promoting collaboration through documentation and best practices
- Ensuring Rock-Solid Performance! You will be responsible for ensuring the software's reliability and scalability, implementing robust monitoring systems and practices to identify and prevent issues proactively, improving logging capabilities for effective debugging, and being prepared to conduct postmortems to learn from failures
- Growing Your Peers! Recognizing the importance of a solid and cohesive team, you will support your fellow team members in making decisions, providing guidance and examples, and engaging in pair programming when needed. Your focus on peer growth contributes to the overall success of the team
- Engineering-Driven Product Focus! While coding is a core aspect of your role, you will also actively participate in discussions regarding product development. Your valuable insights will help balance incorporating new features and addressing technical considerations
- Sharing is Caring! You will be expected to organize and lead presentations on topics that you have mastered. By keeping yourself and your colleagues updated on new technologies and industry trends, you contribute to advancing the engineering department
Our take
With consumers and investors concerned about the environmental and social impact of corporations and governments increasing regulations on carbon emissions and supply chains, businesses now must report on a range of metrics other than the bottom line. Aside from being the right thing to do, mistakes can be extremely costly both in reputation and in fines. Founded in 2000, EQS Group exists to make corporate compliance, investor relations and ESG reporting easier with its cloud-based EQS Cockpit resource.
The EQS Cockpit allows streamlining of a wide range of compliance processes, including relatively obscure matters such as whistleblower protection which have recently cost firms large amounts of money (see for instance Barclays receiving a $15 million fine along with massive reputational damage for failing to protect a whistleblower). In a time when governments such as Germany are increasing compliance requirements on supply chain to deal with the scourge of human trafficking, such a solution is likely to be particularly appreciated.
As expected of a company providing a much needed enterprise service, EQS Group has been in demand in recent years, seeing an almost 20% increase in revenue over 2022 and adding nearly 250 new corporate customers to its books. This growth is likely to continue, driven by the introduction of the EU whistleblower directive across the EU member states, a new investment from Thomas Bravo and by EQS Group's continuing marketing efforts as it expands into additional markets.
