Drive the development process in an Agile environment, placing Flix users at the center of each solution you and the team create

Support technical decisions across teams, improving technical excellence through collaboration and lateral leadership

Help define and deliver products that optimize the coordination between Flix and Mobility Partners, enhancing efficiency and reducing manual tasks

About You

6+ years of experience as a Software Java and/or Kotlin Engineer, with knowledge of distributed systems, including Spring/Spring Boot, Kafka, MySQL/Postgres, Redis, MongoDB and S3

Willingness to work with both Java (for existing products) and Kotlin (for new ones)

Experience in making architectural decisions, and writing clean, performant, well-tested code

Autonomy and ownership in solving technical challenges, as well as strong communication skills when working with a distributed team

A strong product mindset, with a passion for user experience and a data-driven approach to decision-making

Nice-to-Haves

Experience with DevOps and infrastructure: Kubernetes, Docker, Gitlab CI, AWS, Terraform

Familiarity with data engineering (ETL, Snowflake)

Ability to be a sparring partner, share knowledge and experience, explain complex things in plain language, consult/mentor, and provide constructive feedback

Cooperation Model

Cooperation based on a service agreement (B2B/freelance contract), not an employment contract

You will operate as an independent contractor, responsible for delivering agreed services and submitting invoices

Location: open for contractors based in Poland
