• Solid programming skills in at least one backend language (Elixir, C++, Python, Ruby etc).

• You have experience in Google Cloud Platform, Terraform, and CI/CD tools.

It’s normal for people to say a competitive salary and benefits. That’s table stakes. We want to find out what motivates you, in order to guarantee that we can offer it. That being said:

• Equity in a fast-growing company
• Competitive salary plus additional performance-related rewards
• 25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays
• Well-located office with our adorable dog Billie (if you’re in London)
• End of quarter learning and social events
• Mindfulness, yoga, team sports and more

For now, we’re taking a blended WFH approach. The office is a 5-minute walk from Shoreditch High Street Station. Dogs and friends of Programmai can visit and enjoy all the office perks (Kombucha, rooftop drinks, fresh coffee!) #J-18808-Ljbffr

We are looking for a full-time software engineer in London (or in Europe working remotely) to help us build a world-class web platform.

Our Engineering team consists of an ex-Googler, a DeepMind scholar, and other really talented and friendly people. We work in a collaborative atmosphere, and value autonomy highly., Programmai is a predictive marketing technology. We use first-party customer data in a privacy compliant way to improve the performance of online advertising.

Think Amazon. Now think about all the companies striving to be like them. We sit right in the middle. Our platform helps brands like ASOS and Deliveroo gain a predictive edge in the major ad platforms (Google, Facebook, Snapchat and TikTok).

We’re early-stage and London-based. In September 2020, we closed our seed round (+$1m) from a position of strength. And now we’re on a fast growth trajectory.

Tech we use at present:

• Google Cloud Platform, managed with Terraform;
• Elixir for APIs, storage, and external integration;
• Python for the Machine Learning pipelines;
• Reason React and GraphQL for the frontend web app.
