Senior Software Developer

Job Description

Coinsquare's Product & Engineering team is looking to add highly skilled Developers to our growing team. If you are passionate about your field then reach out. We value your personal insight and ideas as much as your programming skill. In no particular order, some of the things we look for most in candidates are: A desire to collaborate on complex problems, a willingness and interest in learning from anyone (or what the folks these days are calling a "growth mindset"), a sense of humbleness and an appreciation of puns. If you've got what we're looking for, get back to us with some projects that you're proud of! We love passionate people who pursue the things they love, so show us what you're proud of. Your job will be to architect, develop and maintain our application code. You should have some experience (or the desire to learn about) containers, concurrency, clean tested code, performance optimization, and instrumentation.

You should have a firm understanding of:

• Deep knowledge of at least one programming language (we are service based, not a monolith)
• Familiarity with a multitude of programming languages
• An understanding of functional programming practices
• Containers and orchestration (k8s) / Kubernetes
• Streams and/or queueing
• Security Design / Anti Patterns
• High-frequency transactional data modelling
• Automated testing
• Data pipelines
