Brno, South Moravian, Czech Republic GoodData Full time 90,000 - 120,000 per year

GoodData is a cloud-based analytics platform that helps organizations in making data-driven decisions. We are hiring for an engaging job in a dynamic, international environment.

We are looking for a Sr. Software Engineer (Backend) to join our team. Working hybrid is a possibility, and we also have the option to work onsite from our Brno or Prague offices.

About the team

The team builds a product-oriented Analytical Stack, collaborating closely with dedicated Product Manager, Architect and QA, to ensure that our work delivers maximum value to users. We collaborate to design solutions incrementally and value ownership and responsibility. Our engineers take end-to-end ownership of their work, with the freedom to experiment, innovate, and contribute to shaping the product.

Our Tech Stack
  • Our tech stack is built for scalability, efficiency, and flexibility in data processing
  • Our backend is primarily developed in Kotlin and Python (with types), with a focus on modular microservices handling various aspects of the data pipeline, including orchestration, integration, and processing
  • We deploy on Kubernetes, leveraging technologies like Apache Calcite, Apache Arrow, DuckDB, Pandas, and Polars for high-performance data processing
  • We emphasize efficient algorithms and data structures to tackle diverse challenges and ensure optimal performance
  • We prioritize distributed architecture and scalability, crafting high-quality, test-driven code while influencing technical solutions, best practices, and API design—both internally and externally
What do we expect from you?

You are used to working on more than one project. You thrive in a dynamic, collaborative environment and enjoy taking initiative. You are proactive, open-minded, and enthusiastic about learning new technologies.

You will closely collaborate with your teammates to:

  • Develop our Kotlin and Apache Calcite-based Analytic Query Engine
  • Take on the challenges of building a distributed, highly scalable application
  • Craft high-quality code with automated testing
  • Influence technical solutions, processes, and best practices within the team
  • Contribute to both internal and public API design and implementation
You have
  • A strong background in computer science,
  • Experience with Kotlin/Python/Java
  • Very good knowledge of SQL and relational databases,
  • Familiarity with relational algebra
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to think analytically
  • Passion for clean code, design, and testing,
  • Familiarity with software design patterns,
  • Experience with Linux ecosystem, Git and Docker,
  • Good proficiency in written and spoken English,
  • A strong sense of ownership, while being open to constructive feedback
  • Experience as a team player in an agile environment
It is nice if you have
  • Working knowledge of open source frameworks like Apache Calcite and Apache Arrow
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes
  • Understanding of web technologies (HTTP, HTML, JSON) and modern frontend frameworks
  • Knowledge of gRPC and protocol buffers
  • Experience with distributed application development
  • Familiarity with BI platforms and Big Data
  • Experience with DB design and tuning
  • Experience or interest in learning Python
  • Experience or interest in learning full stack/frontend development (TS/JS)
