We are looking for a Component Developer that wants to make an impact in a growing SaaS-based company. You will work in a fast-paced Keboola Component team in a modified Agile environment. These components are the building blocks that will enable our customers to create sophisticated data systems. Components can include extractors, writers, and other data apps that connect to systems such as ERPs, CRMs, etc. In terms of technology, we are a multi cloud with everything in AWS and Azure, and all apps are in Docker.
The team communicates mostly in Czech but you must be able to speak with other teams in English. For onboarding, you will receive a set of training materials, descriptions of technologies we use and participate in a Keboola onboarding program.
What you’ll do
- Develop components to be used by Keboola customers.
- Create custom integrations, scrape data from various sources, learn about various systems, and figure out a way to "talk" to different services.
- Create Python tools that benefit the community and take part in improving the Keboola ecosystem.
- Work with teams or circles on technical issues including software system design and maintenance. Consistently communicate and brainstorm with your closest peers.
- The core qualities of a person who may be interested in such a position is laziness and curiosity. They always strive to make things easier so they can avoid tedious manual tasks and "hack" the system to his needs. "It can't be done" is a trigger expression that forces them to prove them wrong, figuring out smart workarounds and hacks brings her satisfaction. Have mastered Googling techniques so they can google her way out of any task, even though it's new or they never heard of it. "Fake it till you make it" is sometimes a working model.
What we look for
- 1 year of Python development experience in a professional setting, or an internship works too. We will consider a Computer Science degree plus a Python Bootcamp/night school course without professional experience.
- Knows Python or wants to learn it more while having experience with other programming languages.
- The main distinction we make is a move from using python for scripting only to more serious object-oriented coding.
- Has basic awareness of database systems and ideally is interested in anything related to data.
- e.g. Ever wondered how large-scale data are processed? Are you fascinated by all the possible use cases there might be for all the various kinds of data out there (e.g. IoT, OpenData)?
- Is interested in the data field and data-engineering in general.
The skills and experience you need to have
- Speak fluently in Czech and English and be based in Prague or Brno, Czech Republic. We will consider CEE remote.
- Has awareness about web services e.g. and basic communication protocols like API, HTTP.
- Knows about (semi-structured) data formats like JSON, XML.
- Has a basic understanding of UNIX-based systems (nice to have).
- Knows a thing or two about OS-level virtualization/containers (Docker) or is interested in micro-service architecture (nice to have).
- Is interested in data-engineering.
- Self-management and self-discipline to work independently. We are fully remote during Covid restrictions.
- Interest in learning new technologies and continuous self-improvement is required. Have an insatiable thirst for knowledge and development and the desire to grow in your role and with the company.
- Are technically savvy with a deep desire to build and support relationships and expand product use within a customer environment.
- Possess good judgment with consultative, problem solving, and escalation resolution skills.
- Daily working experience with Google products, Slack, Zendesk, Jira, Confluence, etc.
A little bit more about the opportunity
- Autonomy within your position. We are focused on outcomes, not micromanaging everything that you do. We love free company movement.
- Work with great brands both locally and worldwide. Ask us who we were working with!
- Work with new industry-leading data technologies.
- The opportunity to create the job you want that fits in with the life you want. We know there is life outside of work, and think fulfillment is achieved when all areas of your life fit together.
- We believe the best people are a bit weird and have an inner engine that drives them.
- We strive to push people for career development. There are many traits for a component team person - core Keboola platform tech team, consulting and other “departments” are always open for internal hires!
You can look forward to the following benefits
- Competitive compensation and employee stock options pre-IPO.
- Generous paid vacation time. And we mean generous.
- Cool new offices in the heart of Holesovice in Prague.
- We are a company born in the cloud means we are relatively location independent. Want to take an extra-long trip while working on the beach (or forest, or desert?), go ahead - make sure to send us a postcard.
- No set office hours and flexibility (aside from when you are placed on-call to support customers).
