Catawiki is an innovative online marketplace specializing in special and unique objects, handling over 75,000 auctions weekly and serving more than 10 million monthly visitors. As a Backend Software Engineer, you'll join a dynamic environment working on high-scale, customer-facing challenges across their platform.
The role sits within one of three verticals - Demand, Supply, or Fulfilment - where you'll be responsible for building scalable, maintainable, and resilient microservices. Working in small, autonomous Agile teams, you'll collaborate closely with cross-functional team members to deliver product innovations.
The company offers a modern hybrid working model with 2 days in office, emphasizing both flexibility and team collaboration. Their tech stack is primarily Ruby-based, though prior Ruby experience isn't mandatory for passionate learners. The role involves end-to-end responsibility for microservices, from design to deployment and maintenance.
Catawiki stands out with its diverse, international environment of 850+ employees representing over 50 nationalities. They offer comprehensive benefits including health insurance, meal allowances, and a holistic wellbeing program. The company's culture strongly values ownership, openness to change, and passion for their mission and customers.
This is an excellent opportunity for a mid-level backend engineer looking to work on challenging problems at scale, with the added benefit of contributing to a unique platform that connects special objects with passionate collectors worldwide.
