Job Description

• We are looking for a Senior Staff Engineer to join our Backend Engineering team. This is a very senior role and you would be reporting to the Engineering Manager.


• You would be working standalone and as a coach and contributor within a company that has an emphasis on high quality output using infrastructure as code, observability and monitoring as well as automated testing in all environments, including production.


• As we scale our business we want to continually raise the bar in our software engineering teams, therefore, this will suit someone that has an appetite to solve problems and define what "good" looks like in low ego engineering environment.


• At M-KOPA we deploy multiple times per day, and you will be empowered to drive the architecture of our new fleet of microservices. We use predominantly C# written against the latest .NET stack, and favor microservices hosted on Azure using Kubernetes for all new implementations. A high level of proficiency in this area is needed.


• We are constantly iterating towards a completely decoupled, event driven architecture across our entire software portfolio


• This is a fully remote role, within the following time zone (UTC -1 / UTC+3). Our engineers work remotely from locations such as UK, Europe and Africa. You will be reporting to the group Engineering Manager


• We have a mix of legacy services and greenfield microservices, so if you love the challenge of improving a legacy codebase while working on new projects, and if working remotely full time appeals, this might be a job for you.


• We have flexible working hours in the afternoon, where our engineers decide to manage the time in the way they fit best, we support a well balanced work-life schedule where you can manage your own time to take breaks in the afternoon in the way that you see fit. We value the work being done and we believe we are all accountable professionals.


• We also have 5 days of learning and development per year, and plenty of opportunities to learn while doing the job.
