  • Understanding of OO and MVC patterns, relational and non-relational databases, Test-driven development, data structure, and design patterns
  • Experience with Google Cloud Platform (App Engine, Firestore, BigQuery, APIs, etc)
  • Experience developing CI/CD pipelines
  • CMS integration development
  • Docker knowledge (usage, management, and deployment)
  • Experience with Kubernetes
  • Caching (Redis/Memcached)
  • Experience with message queue architecture (RabbitMQ, Celery)
  • Knowledge of security principles and how they apply to web applications
  • Customer focus with the ability to translate technical language to a broader audience
  • Experience working in an agency environment with agile teams

And in return, Beyond offers:

  • A team of passionate people who genuinely care about what they do and the standard of work they produce
  • Whilst we’re remote first, we have two hubs in Portugal: Lisbon and Porto
  • 25 days’ annual leave, Juneteenth, your birthday off, and a paid office closure between Christmas and New Year's.
  • Health insurance
  • 15 days of paid sickness and wellness days
  • A generous learning and development budget and an annual leadership development programme
  • A strong company culture that includes weekly meetings, company updates, team socials, and celebrations
  • In-house DE&I council and mental health first-aiders

Having been named among the Sunday Times Best 100 Companies, we believe culture plays a large role in what we offer as an organization. We actively promote diversity in all its forms across our Studios, and we proudly, passionately, and proactively strive to create a culture of inclusivity and openness for all our employees.

Beyond is committed to welcoming everyone, regardless of gender identity, orientation, or expression. Our mission is to remove exclusivity and barriers and encourage new thinking and perceptions in a space of belonging. It is not about race, gender, or age, it is about people. And without our people being their most creative and innovative selves, we are nothing.
