Senior Full Stack Engineer

Are you an experienced Full Stack Engineer looking to make an exciting change: ditching the monolith and building new Golang & React microservices?

We are looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to join our team in Newmarket. You are expected to perform at a high level and make strong contributions to the team in rapidly and efficiently building solutions to our retailers' problems, focussing on iteration, experimentation, and stability.

You don't need to be an expert in Golang or React but you must be willing to learn as you go, and you'll have our full support on this journey.

Engineering @ Lightspeed:
We build new features on top of a modern stack, consisting of web apps (in a mix of Angular & React) communicating through GraphQL and REST APIs to Go services, backed by databases and Kafka topics, all deployed using Docker in a continuous delivery cycle to AWS
You don't need to have experience in any of our specific technologies: we're great at teaching good engineers how to use our modern SaaS stack
We don't follow rigid Scrum or Kanban, but we do work in an agile, iterative way, and try to continuously improve and implement what works for us
We value letting our merchants experience what we're building as soon as possible - So we deploy a change to production on average every 7 minutes
Blameless culture and a continuous improvement mindset
What you'll be doing:
Build stuff: this means coding, delivering new features, code reviews, fixing bugs, peer programming and incident response
Own and be accountable for features and high-leverage coding projects
Structure projects into small, actionable tasks to deliver the most value in no time
Collaborate with engineers, product managers and designers to help plan the work ahead
Learn and teach: knowledge sharing, chapter reviews, demos, mentoring fellow engineers
Work on common services, shared libraries, upgrade/introduce new tooling or libraries, documentation, evolve best practices and processes etc.
