Let’s talk stack

Our backend stack mainly consists of APIs within a Ruby on Rails application built on top of Redis, ElasticSearch, Sidekiq, Docker and MySQL. This backend coordinates multiple different data streams and allows for complex healthcare ecosystems to be optimized and efficient. Our frontend and mobile apps utilize modern frameworks such as Angular and React Native, RxJS, Redux, and Storybook. Quality being at the center of our principles, all of this code is tested using frameworks such as Jestas well as end-to-end testing libraries and services. Finally, we strongly believe in a continuous deliveryapproach and have achieved a strong maturity in this regard, deploying code in production environments multiple times a day.

Curious about our challenges?

Did we mention that we’re aiming for world-class? Think about efficient, highly scalable and responsive infrastructures, think interoperability, think multiple languages, think security – where to start! GDPR, PEPIDA, SOC2, and so on – we work in healthcare, that’s a given.

Much has been done, but much remains to be done for us to be satisfied. Do you want to participate in our transformation and collaborate in refining the techniques and practices that make the development of modern and complex web applications so challenging, but oh so rewarding? We absolutely want to meet you!

Job requirements

So what are we looking for?
First off, a palpable passion for your craft – be able to tell us about accomplishments that you are proud of!
In-depth knowledge of software development – ideally with a stack similar to ours, but don’t be held back if that’s not the case.
Experience to spare – be ready and interested in solving complex problems and mentoring, training and engaging your junior-intermediate colleagues.
Autonomy – but don’t worry, you won’t be alone in your corner when you arrive! You will have a dedicated colleague to support you for as long as you need.
Reliability – no one wants to check your hours. We’re interested in what you produce, how you advance your team’s goals, and what you put in the hands of our customers.

Maturity – Senior developers at Petal understand business issues and are able to face challenges with pragmatism and a solution-oriented approach.
Proficiency in verbal and written French.
