Want to build systems that power one of the world's largest e-commerce platforms? We are looking for engineers who love solving complex, real-world problems at massive scale. Our team builds the core tax calculation and invoicing platform that ensures accurate, compliant transactions across global marketplaces - covering sales tax, VAT, and tax invoicing for physical and digital products.

Work in an agile environment where priorities are clear and impact is immediate
Contribute across the full software development lifecycle - from design and documentation to testing and operations
We are hiring software engineers who thrive on complexity and take pride in operating mission-critical, high-availability systems. You should be self-driven, a good communicator (both written and verbal), and energized by collaborating with talented peers in a fast-paced environment.

Familiarity with Linux-based development environments
Background in building or operating large-scale distributed systems
5+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
