YOUR TEAM & YOUR MISSION
The Engineering Team at Eskimi tackles complex adtech challenges with a focus on delivering business value quickly. Engineers build both scalable infrastructure and high-throughput, low-latency systems, solving complex problems that demand deep system-level thinking beyond the reach of AI tools.
The culture is built on making decisive technical choices that drive business outcomes. The team moves fast from problem identification to solution deployment, prioritising impact over perfection.
As a Backend Developer, you’ll help shape our Ad Exchange by building features that directly impact performance and drive revenue.

You’ll join a sharp, supportive team where learning and improving never stop.

- Design and implement features that directly generate revenue
- Collaborate closely with a cross-functional team of engineers, product managers, and data analysts
- Work in an Agile environment with frequent iterations and releases
- Write backend services in Scala — no Scala experience? No worries! If you’re eager to learn and ready to dive in, we’ll support your transition
- Continuously improve and refactor the existing codebase to keep things clean, scalable, and robust
WHAT WILL HELP YOU DO IT
- At least 10+ years of hands-on experience with modern programming languages like Java, C#, Go, or Scala
- Strong communication skills — you can clearly explain your thinking and understand what others need from your work.
- Solid background with various storage systems: relational, in-memory, and NoSQL, and a good grasp of when to use what
- Familiarity with Git, testing practices, and system monitoring tools
- A “build it to last” mindset — you write code meant to survive updates, scale, and serve users long-term
- Comfortable working with remote, distributed teams across time zones
WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU

- Professional development opportunities: Grow with programs like Leaders Assembly for managers, mentorship programs for growing talents, regular learning sessions, and access to external consultants. Our internship programs also serve as stepping stones for career starters, often leading to full-time roles within the team.
- Recognition & rewards: Your efforts matter, so we reward contributions with bonus programs and Bonusly, our peer-to-peer recognition system that turns appreciation into points for gifts and vouchers.
- Additional perks: Private health insurance (location-dependent), volunteer days, and team get-togethers both online and in-person to foster meaningful connections in Eskimi.
