Some of your responsibilities will be:

  • Work together with our PO to set the quarterly team goals and make sure the team delivers them
  • Collaborate with the architects and the other team leads to align dependencies between teams and make sure common architectural and best practices are followed
  • Mentor the team members
  • Providing a seamless experience for tenants and advertisers when dealing with all money flows in the platform
  • Working together with the Finances team to develop tools that make their work auditing, processing and validating payouts easier and more reliable
  • Developing fault tolerant finances microservices
  • Monitoring and improving the performance the APIs
  • Managing our services in Kubernetes cluster and through CI/CD

Our stack

In frontend we are React lovers. We use TypeScript, CSS-in-JS, Redux and all tools related to this stack. Our backend is powered by Golang backed with a Postgres database and NSQ messaging. Our main infrastructure is in Google Cloud Platform.
