As a Software Engineer at BWZ you are responsible for the whole development process, starting with discovering, planning and developing, ending with testing and deploying. You will work in an environment that offers freedom with responsibility, and encourages simplicity with risk taking.
You will be working in the BWZ's Tech Team, highly involved in the development of our back-end systems and integrations (using Node.js, Python, AWS, etc), but also participating on the development and architecture of our multi-site Web Platform (built in WordPress), our Ad Tech Platform (built in Ruby on Rails), among many others systems and products.
You can work remotely or in a flexible regime, if you are in Curitiba, Brazil. Keep in mind that our teams work in the PST time zone, and your hours should be as least partially compatible with it.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Reporting to the Technology Director, working in the BWZ Labs Team but also closely with the Web Platform. You will be tasked with the development of internal systems used by dozens of employees, as well as customer facing systems used by thousands of clients.
You don’t have to know all the answers, because you will have the time to research and learn new technologies and solutions, so you can make suggestions and implementations that might fit our product needs to better perform and scale.
