The Team
At Deliveroo we’re striving to build one of the world’s best engineering organisations.
We’re dedicated to building a collaborative and supportive culture. We set goals and objectives. We empower our engineers to find solutions to problems at great scale. We trust them to use their time wisely.
Our teams are solving unique and difficult problems at scale in an energetic and fast-paced environment. We’re growing incredibly quickly and we need experienced engineers to help us scale.
We’re looking for software engineers who can have a transformative influence on the way we build, operate and run our database infrastructure.
What will you do?
* Design and build the systems automation required to allow Deliveroo to manage and operate our large-scale cloud database estate.
* Work closely with DBAs to gain expertise in database engineering practices and technologies.
* Develop best practices, tools, and libraries to make the AWS database ecosystem easier to use and more reliable for product teams.
Expectations
Technical Execution
* You will improve code structure, architecture and review code of any scope produced by your team. It will also include work to maximise the efficiency of your team by leading team project planning, foreseeing dependencies and risks, and constructively partnering with other disciplines (e.g. PM, product engineers).
* You'll aim to simplify the maintenance and operation of production systems, promoting visibility, operational readiness, and health of your team's systems.
Collaboration & Leadership
* As well as leading from the front regarding technical execution, you'll build relationships with other engineering teams and identify collaboration opportunities.
* You'll break down large pieces of work, guide design and technical / implementation choices and influence the roadmap within your team.
* You will take an active role in the hiring process and conducting engineering interviews. This will also extend to the current team where you will support the personal growth of colleagues, encouraging efficiency in their roles.
We want to emphasise that we don't expect you to meet all of the below but would love you to have experience in some of these areas.
* Pride in readable, well-designed, well-tested software.
* Familiarity and practical experience with both relational and “NoSQL” databases such as Postgresql, DynamoDB and Redis.
* A strong background in software engineering, preferably with Go and/or Python.
* Practical experience in cloud engineering, preferably AWS.
Benefits And Diversity
At Deliveroo we know that people are the heart of the business and we prioritise their welfare. We offer multiple great benefits in areas including health, family, finance, community, convenience, growth, time away and relocation.
We believe a great workplace is one that represents the world we live in and how beautifully diverse it can be. That means we have no judgement when it comes to any one of the things that make you who you are - your gender, race, sexuality, religion or a secret aversion to coriander. All you need is a desire to be part of one of the fastest growing startups around.
