Descriptif du poste

Back Market is the world’s leading refurbished electronics marketplace with a team of 650 people, powering operations in 21 countries (and counting!).

Named one of the World's Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company in 2019 and again in 2021, our mission is simple: empowering people to consume tech sustainably by offering folks a high quality, accessible, and more eco-friendly alternative to buying new electronics. Why? Refurbished tech helps lower our collective environmental impact. We have indeed contributed to avoid the production of more than 1,000,000 tons of CO2e worldwide since our launch in 2014.

Be part of an exciting and growing international adventure that will change the way the world consumes tech.

Our engineering department, the Bureau of Technology

Representing a third of our overall team, the Bureau of Technology is structured around some concepts introduced by the foundational “Spotify model”: Squads, Tribes, and Chapters.

Spread across 5 tribes, the ~20 Product squads are the cross-functional, autonomous teams building and operating services to deliver value to customers and suppliers. They are grouped in tribes addressing a common theme. These Product squads are supported by the ~10 Platform squads which address the cross-cutting challenges, as well as the CyberSecurity team. 

As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will work closely with all members of your squad, and the Staff engineer of your tribe. Bi-monthly rituals with your tribe and the Backend Chapter will allow you to share what works for your squad, learn what works for others, and make sure your technical direction is aligned with the overall vision.

Main technical challenges

While Back Market has historically been powered by a monolithic application, it is currently being re-shaped into a distributed information system: building a set of efficient and loosely coupled services is one of the main challenges to face for the years to come.

Note that the Backbox (Algo) team has already migrated to a full microservice environment. 

This will allow each squad to: define their own ways of working ; release at their own pace ; manage their stored data by themselves ; have more latitude when picking a tech or tool.

As a Senior Backend Engineer the challenge is three-fold:

- making this transition seamlessly with zero downtime and no revenue loss

- ensuring scalability of the codebase in the context of new country openings in terms of complexity and adaptability of features

- guaranteeing high performance of production environments

Our technical environment

We use a lot of different technologies. Here is a list of the most commonly used by the Backend Engineers: 

Application (Python): Django/FastAPI/Flask/Celery/SQLAlchemy

Datastore: PostgreSQL/MySQL/Redis

Infrastructure: AWS / GCP / Kubernetes / Docker / Datadog/ ArgoCD / CircleCI
