Senior Backend Developer
Senior Backend Developer (Remote - Europe/Africa)
We're continuously adding features to make our backend much faster, more scalable, and more developer-friendly for our customers. If you think scaling a backend at a fast-growing startup sounds like an excellent challenge, then this is for you! We're looking for someone who could be "architect" or "principal developer" elsewhere but prefers to get their hands dirty within an excellent & experienced team. We offer tremendous freedom and responsibility + work in a remarkably decent codebase (for a startup :D).
At TalkJS we like to think that we're good at striking a balance between meticulous code and shipping quickly. If that sounds like your kind of environment, then this is for you.
Our ideal candidate:
- has broad technical interests
- likes to design great APIs for other programmers
- has demonstrable experience scaling backends
- has demonstrable experience coding Elixir (not necessarily professionally)
- knows at least 3 programming languages well
- likes to work together with the team to make our product better across the board
Bonus points if you know some frontend stuff (JS/HTML/CSS) too.
Salary varies with seniority and is benchmarked to Dutch/Amsterdam norms.

Apply by emailing to jobs@talkjs.com. If you can, show us an app your built (or helped build) and an API you designed (on any platform). Also, if you found us on a job site, could you let us know which? Thanks! 🙂
