Description For Software Engineer, Acceleration

Rover, the leading platform connecting pet parents with sitters and dog walkers across the US, Canada, and Europe, is seeking a Software Engineer for their Acceleration team in Barcelona. This role offers an exciting opportunity to make a meaningful impact in the pet care industry while working with modern technologies like React, Python, and Django.

The position requires 3+ years of professional software development experience, with a focus on building web and mobile applications. You'll be part of a collaborative, cross-functional team that values code quality, automated testing, and agile methodologies. The ideal candidate should be passionate about Rover's mission to make pet care more accessible and have a strong foundation in relational databases and schema design.

Working at Rover means joining a company that's been recognized among the best places to work, with offices in Seattle, Barcelona, San Antonio, and Spokane. The company offers an impressive benefits package including competitive compensation, private health insurance, pension plan, meal tickets, and flexible work hours. What makes Rover unique is its dog-friendly office culture – you can bring your furry friend to work and even receive monetary support for adopting a dog.

The engineering team embraces progressive practices including continuous deployment, automated testing, and data-driven decision-making. You'll work alongside product managers, designers, and data scientists in an integrated environment that promotes learning and professional growth. The company is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive.

This hybrid position is based in Barcelona, and while relocation assistance is available, candidates must have or be eligible to obtain the right to work in Spain. If you're passionate about technology, love pets, and want to be part of a mission-driven company that's transforming the pet care industry, this role offers an excellent opportunity to grow your career while making a meaningful impact.
