Video introduction to the job and Contra by our CTO https://youtu.be/UHLVqwmLxIM

Brief

You will be joining a small team of backend engineers working primarily with Node.js, GraphQL, and PostgreSQL. We are looking for someone who is primarily a Node.js developer but who could also support the team with DevOps-related tasks. If you have a deep interest in DevOps technologies such as Kubernetes, ArgoCD, GKE, etc., this is a great opportunity to work with a talented backend team while leveling up your DevOps skills.

How you’ll add value at Contra:

• Develop enterprise-scale backend services using cutting edge technologies


• Write professional-quality, clean and testable TypeScript code


• Transform business requirements into relational database structures and GraphQL schemas


• Craft readable, performant and scalable SQL queries


• Collaborate with the rest of the team through planning, code reviews and regular communication

You’ll be successful here if you:

• Carefully plan your work and build for the future


• Deliver transparent, honest, and direct feedback to your peers on an early-stage product


• Enjoy participating in all parts of the product process, not just coding


• Thrive in a remote-first environment


• Are fluent in verbal and written English
