🙌 Rokoko Care’s engineering team:

Currently, the team consists of a Product Manager, Clinical Lead Physiotherapist, 2 Unity Developers, 1 JS developer, and a Product Designer. We are working with an Agile Mindset where we use processes to make collaboration for the whole team easy, not get in the way.

The team believes in:

• Product first - We believe truly helping our users comes from delivering the best product experience. And that comes from thorough collaboration across all disciplines.
• First-principles thinking - We thrive to solve complex issues at their most fundamental level to help get better solutions to our users faster.
• Ship early, get feedback, and reiterate.
• Taking ownership - It’s a team effort, so it’s important that everyone is empowered to take responsibility when needed.

👉 As our Senior Backend Engineer, you will be:

• Leading technical discussions in order to help define the future of the product in discussions with your peers from product, design, and engineering on a cross-functional, outcome-based team.
• Collaborating and recommending architectural solutions, while understanding and explaining trade-offs around time to market, structural and functional quality, security, maintainability, resources, and scope.
• Helping drive your team through large projects, while continuously assessing and communicating progress and iterating on solutions to stakeholders.
• Supporting and maintaining the existing code baseline and products.
• Exercising and improving Care’s engineering practices such as pair programming, code reviews, collective code ownership, and CI/CD.

🔎 So what kind of person are we looking for in this role?

• Inquisitive by nature - You are driven to understand how and why things work whether that thing is a coffee machine or the product manager's mind.
• Team player - We expect you to understand why collaboration and team dynamics are fundamental to delivering a good product.
• Outcome-oriented - When managing trade-offs between speed and quality you always look for the solution that fits the necessary outcome. Understanding that some things can only be fully understood when tested.
• Communicative - You’re able to translate your thoughts and ideas for both technical and non-technical people to understand so that you can share ideas, and opinions and engage in a collaborative effort.

👀 Now that we've told you what the job looks like, here are the qualifications we're looking for in our colleague:

• 5+ years of experience building software products.
• Someone who finds joy in mentoring and leading junior developers, while still getting hands-on with the code.
• A very clear interest in communicating the engineering view with all types of stakeholders.
• Experience with C# and JS - experience with Unity and/or computer vision is a big plus.
• Experience in cloud services, preferably Azure, but AWS or GCP experience also works. We value managed services over VMs, and Infrastructure-as-code over shell scripts. Automation is the name of the game in backend infrastructure.

❤️ Rokoko perks and benefits

• Work with an international team of 70+ talented individuals and a rare opportunity to work with professional motion capture/or other ESP.
• Fantastic office location, catered lunch scheme, healthy snacks and beverages, and #coffee breaks.
• 25 days of paid holiday(annual) and 5 optional(unpaid).
• Optional healthcare insurance and pension scheme.
• Work-life balance - we want you to win both at work and in life.
• Quarterly education fund program.
• Company fun runs - we love sporty outdoor activities from casual runs to marathons.
• Regular social gatherings, both in person and digitally.
• A quite unique opportunity to join Rokoko at the most exciting scale-up phase. We offer a steep learning curve and an ambitious work environment.
