About You
What we mean by “full-stack developer” is someone who will eventually be able to code both in the front-end and back-end. We expect that you currently master either the front or back-end part of our technical stack, and have notions of the other parts that you are willing to develop into operational skills.
We also expect that you share our interest in solving business problems in the simplest way possible and paying much attention to code quality. You will work in close collaboration, and sometimes directly with our customers: a motivation to understand the customer’s problem in addition to the technical challenge is key.
About the Role
DecisionBrain develops custom decision-support applications for various customers. While each solution is unique, they share common architectural traits:
- Web-based applications with a microservice architecture
- Deployment on various Kubernetes environments
- Built using DB Gene, our proprietary development platform
Developing a decision-support application for a given customer typically lasts from 3 to 9 months, during which a dedicated team is formed that includes roles such as Business Analyst, Full-stack Developer, and Optimization Expert. The project team is responsible for designing, developing, testing, and documenting the application. The size of the project team varies from 3 to 6-8 persons.
We are using an Agile methodology, with 2-week sprints, daily stand-ups, sprint planning and retrospective meetings, etc. However, we are working under fixed budgets and timelines, which requires synchronization with the customer, under the responsibility of the account owner.
