<div><p>TELLONYM is a remote tech company, founded in Berlin. We want you to become part of our journey to build a social network that prioritizes open communication and lets everyone participate - and to help us build a world-class remote company on the way.</p> <p>At Tellonym, you will be joining a young and diverse team with a variety of experience, skills and personal backgrounds.

We work in a flat hierarchy with the opportunity for everybody to weigh in. Every employee takes over own projects from the first day, which ensures quick learning, ownership and skill development.</p> <p>Our backend is running on Node.js fully hosted on AWS. We use MySQL as our primary data store that is also self-maintained, but also make use of Apache Cassandra for feeds and ElasticSearch for search / text indexing. For caching we use basic Redis structures. We also run our own chat system that uses WebSockets for real-time communication. A large part of our system is our analytics services run via Clickhouse as well as our "worker" infrastructure to feature several async mechanisms in a scalable way.</p> <p>Visit our Tellonym profile (at)workAtTellonym to check out the product, ask any questions you have and read about our workplace.</p> <h2>Tasks</h2> <ul> <li>Take ownership and implement new features and improvements into our Node.js API</li> <li>Enhance your knowledge to implement product requirements or performance optimisations</li> <li>Understand existing code and rework it to fulfil coding standards</li> <li>Draft architectural decisions together with the Tech Lead</li> <li>Have a direct impact on team processes and conventions by regular retrospectives</li> </ul> <h2>Requirements</h2> <ul> <li>Living in Europe</li> <li>Enthusiastic about Node.js with experience 5+ years</li> <li>Extensive Typescript knowledge</li> <li>Confident with SQL databases especially optimising for performance</li> <li>Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills</li> <li>Passionate about writing well-structured, efficient and maintainable code</li> <li>Values an environment of candid feedback</li> <li>Used to work in an English-speaking environment</li> </ul> <h2>Benefits</h2> <ul> <li>Flat hierarchies that offer lots of freedom, impact as well as responsibility</li> <li>Completely flexible working times and location (we are doing half-yearly team retreats with hackathons)</li> <li>The right environment to learn new things and personally develop yourself</li> <li>Competitive compensation package and the option to participate in our ESOP system</li> <li>Modern working tools, hardware (Macbook) also for private usage</li> <li>State-of-the-art tech stack running on AWS</li> <li>Work with an exceptional team of young and smart people with a diverse background</li> </ul> <p>This position has been listed as DE only for SEO purposes.
