About YLD:Everything we do is to empower our clients to move forward. Our purpose is to help our clients develop the capabilities they need to outperform their competitors. Our success is a consequence of ensuring our clients are successful. Our company is built on extraordinary people; we aim to attract, inspire, develop and retain them. YLD is a software engineering and design consultancy; we create digital capabilities for our clients that last beyond our engagement. We have offices in London, Lisbon, and Porto.

About the role:

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll be part of a client team building innovative products. We expect you to be curious, passionate, driven, and enthusiastic. You’ll be proficient at problem-solving, and crafting scalable, resilient, and fault-tolerant architectures. You’ll be an effective communicator and a team player. Furthermore, you and your team will move in a fast-paced engineering environment, achieving outstanding results and delivering exciting projects.

About You:

A YLD Software Engineering Consultant is a highly skilled developer who exemplifies the highest standard in software engineering and enjoys sharing their knowledge and experience with others.  

You’ll have the opportunity to build and deliver software within some interesting projects, both in terms of the product and the methodology. We work in an Agile environment (Scrum) with a test-first mindset (actually, writing code without tests should be unthinkable). We are also big advocates of pair programming and nothing is released until we have a code review.  

You have a real passion for problem-solving and are an active learner who gets excited by working collaboratively with those around you.  

If you are a proactive, adaptable, and enthusiastic engineer with must-have experience in Python and a passion for leveraging multiple technologies to build exceptional backend solutions, we encourage you to apply. Join our team and contribute to the development of innovative products that make a difference in the industry.

## Tasks

Your day-to-day responsibilities will look like this:

*   Crafting excellent products! As a Software Engineer, you will be building new features that meet the needs of our clients customers
*   Working closely with your team, regularly collaborating and on engineering initiatives, to continually push yourselves to be better
*   Being responsible for the production operation and monitoring of products inline with SLAs
*   Driving good practices within your team, making an impact on the whole department
*   Participating in regular show and tells, promoting your work to both your department and the wider company

## Requirements

You’ll have the following skills and experience:

*   Experience with modern frameworks across the stack (FastAPI, Gin, Express, etc.)
*   Experience building modern data pipelines using dbt, Kafka, Spark, AWS Kinesis, AWS Lambda, and Apache Airflow (or similar);
*   Experience working with data lakes; experience with Spark or Databrick;
*   Comprehensive testing experience (unit, integration, e2e, security) and performance optimization
*   Scalable system design patterns, load balancing, and high-availability architectures
*   Database design and Data modelling (both relational and NoSQL)
*   Understanding of common data transformation and storage formats, e.g. Apache Parquet
*   API development (REST, GraphQL, gRPC) and event-driven architectures
*   Caching strategies and message queue systems (Redis, Kafka, RabbitMQ)
*   Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) with containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes)
*   CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation)
*   Monitoring, observability, and performance optimisation tools
*   You can keep a cool head when debugging production issues

**Non-Technical competencies:**

*   Problem-solving skills that balance innovation with pragmatic technology choices to solve business needs
*   Comfortable working in a dynamic production environment and taking care of client expectations effectively
*   Distinct customer focus and quality mindset
*   Experience working closely with engineering leadership and architects to deliver high-quality solutions
*   Experience in maintaining a high degree of ownership and transparency in deliverables
*   An exemplar of YLD’s brand and safeguarder of our reputation
*   Exceptional communication skills, able to communicate complex ideas in a simple fashion

## Benefits

**What you’ll get in return:**

*   The chance to work with a forward-thinking, ethical, and fun group of people and to develop and grow your skills in a fast-moving business

**Our typical Recruitment Process looks like this:**

*   1st Interview with someone from the Talent team (30/45 mins)
