The team’s setup
By joining Team Sudo, you aren’t just a developer, you’re a key defender of our platform. You will help us build the "locks and keys" (authentication and authorization) that keep our users safe while ensuring our systems remain fast and easy to use.
In this role, you will:
Secure the Platform: Build and maintain state-of-the-art security features that protect user data and privacy.
Build Integrations: Work on "multi-tenant" solutions - this means you’ll help create seamless ways for our different customers to connect their tools to our platform safely.
Collaborate & Learn: Work alongside cross-functional teams to solve complex problems, giving you a front-row seat to how high-level application security is built from the ground up.
Innovate Safely: We believe security should enable innovation, not stop it. You’ll help us find that perfect balance between "ultra-secure" and "user-friendly."
Our team is distributed across Estonia (Tallinn and Tartu) and Poland, operating in the Eastern European time zone (EET/EEST).
The work
As an entry-level software engineer in this team, you are expected to learn fast independently while solving actual business problems under supervision. You will be building Elixir microservices that utilize event-driven architecture with Kafka, backed by Postgres and NoSQL stores, like Redis and DynamoDB. All of our services run on Kubernetes, in Docker containers.
Since all our product teams are self-reliant, at some point you will work on some features that also require front-end work. The exact amount will vary depending on the projects the team undertakes.
Our current tech stack:
Coding languages: Elixir, Ruby, Javascript (React)
Current Persistence Solutions: Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, S3
Infrastructure: AWS
Monitoring: DataDog
CI/CD: Jenkins
Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, Ansible
Other: AWS services, Kafka, GitHub
Note: We are constantly evolving our tech stack to ensure the usage of the right tools for specific needs, and you will be part of the process of choosing new technologies.
Soft Skills ("The Human Side")
Growth Mindset: You view challenges as opportunities to learn rather than roadblocks.
Communication: You can explain your logic clearly and aren't afraid to ask "why."
Team Player: You enjoy working in a collaborative environment and value feedback.
