Lead a team of engineers designing, developing and operating integration services that connect our customers’ internal systems with Flip (e.g. HR systems, knowledge bases)

Our tech stack is mostly JVM-based (Kotlin, Micronaut), some components are written in Python and JavaScript.
We work remote within international (mostly European), cross-functional agile teams.
We develop software following modern software engineering practices (API first, code reviews, automated tests, MR environments for exploratory testing before a merge, and some tasteful experimental AI augmentation).
We deploy (Kubernetes, Helm) and monitor (Grafana, Sentry, Mixpanel) our services within the teams, with the support of a separate team of SREs for on-call duty.
Join customer calls together with your product manager to understand their specific problems and empower your team to build solutions that cover a majority of customer contexts.
Take charge on technical topics that are important to you, driving significant decisions, and seeking alignment across teams within our backend guild.
