Our AI‑powered task mining observes employee actions across the desktop and categorizes them into detailed process maps.

  • Strong proficiency with Python and Backend Engineering.

  • Experience owning projects from start to finish, including speccing, architecture, development, testing, deployment, release and monitoring.

  • Strong skills in building maintainable tests, observability and tracing systems.

  • Knowledge of best practices for performance optimisation, memory management.

  • Familiarity with Kubernetes, Docker and other cloud infrastructure, ops and containerised tools.

  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills – methodically decomposing systems to identify bottlenecks, determine root causes, and implement effective solutions.

  • Drive to continually develop your skills, improve team processes and reduce technical debt.

  • Fluency in English and ability to effectively communicate abstract ideas, complex concepts and trade‑offs.

Nice to Have
