Are you an experienced backend developer eager to make a significant impact? We are looking for multiple backend developers to join Upright's platform and data teams:

Upright's platform team is responsible for developing Upright's data analytics platform (https://uprightplatform.com), including both its customer-facing side and internal tools. The platform is currently used by 1,000+ institutional investment organizations and corporations, mainly in Europe and North America.

Upright's data teams are responsible for producing Upright's impact data, along with supporting datasets. Upright's data teams plan, develop and maintain the data pipelines and algorithms that produce Upright's net impact data. Software developers working in Upright's data teams work tightly together with data scientists who also write code, but who focus more on complex algorithms.

Your exact role in will be tailored during the recruiting process based on your background, experience, skill level, and interests. In general, software development tasks range from the usual bug fixes and implementation of new features, to developing novel algorithms for our net impact model, improving technical infrastructure, or setting up Python microservices to take machine learning solutions to production, amongst others.

SIGNS FOR BEING A GREAT MATCH WITH THIS ROLE INCLUDE:

Solid track record of internal passion for excellence: you have gotten things done clearly better than what was required/expected from you, as you enjoy doing things well

Sense of urgency and drive to get the job done with tight deadlines

At least 5 years experience in professional software development, and at least 1 year of professional software development in Typescript

Experience with other relevant technologies, such Node, PostgreSQL, Docker, and React (You don't need to have experience in the exact Upright stack, but you should have enough relevant experience to be able to learn any missing parts quickly.)

Attention to detail

Understanding of the whole software lifecycle including design, development, deployment and operations

Ability to think analytically, structure your work, and solve problems proactively

Ability to work both autonomously and as part of a team that includes technical and non-technical stakeholders

Ability to communicate clearly both verbally and in writing
