Speaking of technology, we use:

On FE: ES6 and React/Redux.
On BE: Python 3 and Clojure, as well as: Django, DRF, Celery, Gevent, aiohttp, Airflow, Postgresql, Redis, Memcache, RabbitMQ, ElasticSearch, Terraform, Ansible, Stackstorm, Splunk.

We have the stability and vast clientele of the global corporation, and the pace and environment of a start-up. Our office is in Kyiv, but we also have fully remote employees throughout Ukraine.

As a team, we believe in freedom and responsibility and hire only mature people, able to find a balance between the two. However, it doesn’t mean that we don’t have fun, because we do! We play kicker daily and often gather together for all-nighter board game championships.

We are currently expanding our team and are eager to get to know you!
