Senior Scala Backend Engineer

At Famly, we’re looking for a Senior Scala Backend Engineer to build awesome GraphQL and REST APIs to enable our platform to help the thousands of daycares that use Famly.

We are looking for people in the following locations:

• Copenhagen, Denmark

• Berlin, Germany

• UK (Remote)

• Lisbon, Portugal

If you aren't in any of these locations, do consider applying, we're always open if the right candidate comes by.

And Famly are...? Well it all began when our co-founder Henrik’s daughter was ready to start at daycare. He couldn’t believe the amount of work being done on paper - and how distant he felt from his first child during the day. The paper ‘parent’ books they exchanged once a month just weren’t cutting it. Together with his friend, our co-founder and CEO Anders, they set about solving that.

These days, the 140 of us building Famly talk about trying to do two things for our 6,500 nurseries:

• Giving children the best possible start to life.

• Championing the vital work that goes into making that happen.

We do it with software that brings hundreds of thousands of parents closer to their child’s day while they’re away from them. We also make financial, pedagogical, and planning tools for more than 34,000 childcare professionals, saving them hours and reducing their admin stress.

Ultimately, that gives them more time and headspace for the little ones that really matter. Come help us make that happen.

What you'll be doing:

• Working in our Finance & Payments crew with other Frontenders, Backenders, a Designer, a Product manager and an Engineering manager.

• You will play a key role in planning what’s next, designing, developing and rolling out cool new features and changes.

• You’ll team up with the Backend Chapter to shape the future of our tech stack, tooling and reducing complexity across our code.
