Senior Back-End Engineer - Annotation Tools

Veriff’s machine learning and data science teams are automating identity verification. They have various internal tools to help debug problems, annotate data, catch fraudsters, and more. Effective tooling will allow the teams to deliver more complex models and push the forefront of identity verification. We're looking for a person to make sure our tooling gets the love it needs, via both new features and strong development practices. You will communicate, share your vision, bring your own ideas to the table, listen and hear other points of view.

As a Senior Engineer, we expect you to influence and guide your peers to the next level in solving complex challenges, help untangle problems for the team and groom complicated features to a level where implementation becomes clear for your teammates. We want you to see the forest, not just the trees, and to be able to formalize plans and coordinate bigger initiatives. You will be working closely with our stakeholders to build the best possible tooling that makes the verification process fast, accurate, and reliable. 

You’ll help us protect honest people online by:

• Writing high-quality, maintainable, tested, and efficient code with TypeScript, Python, and GraphQL
• Doing (and receiving) code reviews and providing feedback to your peers
• Identifying and advocating the use of new technologies, libraries, tools, and best practices in the team and across Veriff
• Contributing to the tools that other engineers at Veriff use, like our logging library, GraphQL framework, etc
• Collaborating with other engineers both inside and outside the team to find solutions to complex problems

The perfect future Veriffian

Our main back-end language is TypeScript, but you will need to write some code in Python from time to time. Also, we are actively using GraphQL, therefore previous experience with it at scale is a huge plus. 

We expect you to have:

• Proficiency in microservices, database design, PostgreSQL, and CI/CD
• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, GraphQL, and RabbitMQ is a great plus
• Good command of English and great communication skills
• High level of self-organization, ownership, and responsibility

At Veriff you will have the opportunity to:

• Receive support and a relocation bonus to help you to settle in Estonia

• Receive competitive compensation with salary as well as a stock options package
• Be able to work both from home or the pet-friendly office in Tallinn
• Get mentorship, learning opportunities, and support from your team through code reviews, pair programming sessions, regular 1:1s, educational (and fun) events, and other development programs inside Veriff
• Receive great career opportunities to grow as an individual constructor or as a leader
• Be a part of a diverse team that welcomes all races, cultures, genders, sexual orientations, ages and celebrates differences
