- Be a leader in SCRUM processes with sprint planning, reviews, grooming and retrospectives;
- Collaborate with teammates to resolve service interruptions and high-impact defects; participate in on-call rotation;
- Support your team in developing their technical and other professional skills through mentorship, coaching, pair programming, and code review;
- Constantly look for opportunities to automate tasks, build internal tooling, increase team efficiency and free the team up for the work that matters most;

It would be expected that you are experienced with Elixir, Graphql, Front-end technologies (React), PostgreSQL, and Linux. Experience with DevOps, CI/CD, Kubernetes, blockchain technology, smart contracts and Google cloud would also be nice but it's not essential.
You'll need the flexibility required to work with a globally distributed development team across multiple time zones along with a good internet connection at all times.
If this sounds like something for you. Apply now!
