What you'll do:
You’ll join our Java team that works on the challenging goal of redesigning important parts of Zowie’s architecture - building a low-latency central message delivery platform. The end goal is to easily connect Zowie with different channels such as Facebook, Whatsapp, and others. A lot of exciting work awaits - designing our systems with reliability, performance, and extensibility in mind. You’ll also have an opportunity to learn about exciting technologies like speech to text and text to speech and try out real functional programming by occasionally reading or writing some Scala code. We value outcomes over processes, believe in automatic tests, and use of Ports and Adapters practices in our services.
Despite being compact, we efficiently manage and enhance a sophisticated system comprising over 100 microservices, predominantly coded in Scala and Java. These microservices communicate synchronously through gRPC, handle asynchronous calls via Kafka, expose GraphQL to the frontend, and leverage databases like PostgreSQL, Mongo, ElasticSearch, or Redis.
At Zowie, our engineering ethos is centered around the tangible impact our work has on our users. It's not just about meeting predefined requirements. It's about having a substantial influence on the overall solution. We believe in the empowerment of our engineers to contribute not only to code but also to the strategic decisions that shape our product. This requires a holistic understanding of the business, the product, and the technology at play. Your expertise will enable you to connect the dots and provide valuable insights to guide the best course of action.
Autonomy and meritocracy are at the core of our values. We champion the idea that sound arguments should prevail. As part of the team, you'll be instrumental in shaping end-to-end solutions, influencing architecture decisions, and proposing crucial enhancements to our engineering practices.
Our daily routine aligns with industry standards, including regular planning sessions, standups, timely code reviews, and close collaboration with fellow engineers.
Think of our teams as startups in a startup. We value efficiency and therefore the only constant you should expect is Retrospective. Everything else is being constantly adjusted to fit the changing needs.
