Full Job Description

Looking for someone to join us as one of the early members of the Backend team. In the initial months, you'll be working closely with the team, gradually taking ownership of central components and features. Given our early stage, we're seeking versatile engineers, comfortable contributing to various aspects of the company's foundation. We value team members who delve deep into their respective domains, aiming to cultivate a team of subject matter experts. This commitment to expertise is an expectation of every team member. The backend team at amo is responsible for both server side and the backbone of the client as we believe it makes more sense to have one team handle both ends of the same topics (network, data modelling, management and synchronisation, etc).

You will collaborate with iOS and Android engineers to maintain a unified codebase, enabling consistent experiences across platforms. You’ll also bridge the gap between mobile development and backend infrastructure for a seamless user journey.   FEATURE DEVELOPMENT Participating in brainstorming sessions and discussions to design and implement features that set us apart in the market.   CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT We love learning from each other, staying abreast of industry trends and emerging technologies, bringing fresh ideas to the table. So you'll be contributing to our culture of continuous improvement, wh
