Introduction

The Driftrock engineering team is on the hunt for a software engineer who will work directly with everyone in the company to continuously improve our product and drive innovation.

You will be expected to :

• Be passionate about problem solving, asking questions around when working on features
• Be an active member of our engineering team, working together with the other developers helping them grow their skills in a productive and challenging environment
• Have a strong data-driven mindset when assessing the value that our work has for customers

About the company

Driftock is a marketing technology business founded in 2013 on a mission to become the world leading automotive & e-Mobility marketing platform

We're a team of passionate, friendly, driven people who work hard, but also believe that you can do that whilst still enjoying life! We have a balanced, flexible culture where we have fun and achieve big things for the company and our awesome clients.

About the team & technology

You will be joining a growing product team, with engineers who are deeply passionate about technology and problem solving, and you will have a chance to make a huge impact on the culture and practices of the team, and the wider company.

We believe in continuous improvement and we are constantly optimising how we work and communicate.

We plan our work weekly, using a lean approach (a mixture of Kanban and eXtreme Programming). This way we are able to deploy several times a day, allowing us to have a short feedback cycle on our changes.

We have a data-driven mindset and we use data to drive decisions on everything from user story prioritisation to company strategy.

We also strongly believe in observability and keeping a close eye on how our product is behaving.

Our platform is made of multiple services (mainly built in Elixir, plus some Ruby services that we are transitioning to Elixir), talking to each other via APIs and RabbitMQ and storing data in Postgresql and Redis. All services are hosted on Kubernetes and Google Cloud.

What we're currently working on

We are working on a project to introduce Lead qualification through various communication channels and tracking everything in our Single Customer View. Together with the growing volume of data that we process for our customers this is a great opportunity for us to improve and optimise parts of our event driven architecture to be able to process existing and planned workloads without any issues. We are also finishing the migration to our own style guide using Phoenix Components, as well as polishing existing and growing new product features. In addition we are always open to opportunities to geek out with new technologies.
