Description

Ness Digital Engineering is a global software company on a journey of digital transformation. We design, build, and integrate digital platforms and enterprise software to help organizations engage customers, differentiate their brands, and drive profitable growth. With over 4000 employees worldwide we are constantly growing the team and improving our long-term business relationships.

We are problem-solvers, architects, strategists, implementors, and lifelong learners. We collaborate with each other and with our clients to help them meet their short- and long-term technology goals. Our culture is open, transparent, challenging, and fun. We hire smart, self-starters who thrive in an open-ended environment to figure out what needs to be done and take ownership in delivering quality results.

About our client:

Do you get excited when hearing about trademarks and brand protection news? YES?! So do we! There’s no pushing trademark solutions and brand protection from our thoughts. We’re thinking about coined trademarks in the car, a detailed design search over lunch, counterfeits while sitting with the in-laws, and anti-piracy while working out.

We are a mission-led company, driven by a passion for making the world better and safer for our brand customers and their consumers. It’s what we do. And people come to us to be challenged, developed, supported, and valued.

Our team provides intelligent web-based trademark management platforms used by enterprise companies, law firms and branding agencies for instant trademark search results and risk assessment.

At its core is a unique artificial intelligence model of trademark law based on both explicit and intricate domain models of the law. Manually created by experts in trademark law and linguistics, our cutting-edge system also utilizes state-of-the-art machine-learning techniques to produce models that seamlessly take real-world complexities into account.

About the role

We are looking for senior backend Scala developers to join our world-class team of no-problem-left-unsolved engineers. Here you can also grow to become a full-stacker with gentle support from our experienced UI development team.

What we do and how?

  • Our core Scala framework consists of http4s and Slick which are used to build microservices providing REST APIs to the front-end layer
  • Front-end layer is implemented with React and TypeScript
  • We have a lot of raw trademark data (tens of terabytes) which is further refined and aggregated with our in-house built data pipelines
  • Our master data is in PostgreSQL and searching happens mostly in an Elastic Search cluster
  • Everything runs in Linux, and we are just moving into a CD based AWS setup to make deployment easy and your life focused on coding

Your everyday life will consist of implementing new backend APIs to the search platform, doing peer reviews and discussing about design decisions. Our culture aims to keep meetings in minimum and hence we are currently following Kanban style process.

Must-have skills & requirements

  • Scala backend development or willingness to go all-in with Scala from Java or such, backend experience of 3-5 years is a good start
  • Understanding good software architecture and coding standards, how to make maintainable code
  • Eager to learn new things and always ready to help your colleagues
  • Getting-stuff-done attitude

We appreciate especially the following experience / skills

  • Ability to design and implement scalable systems

  • Modern and spacious office with a city view, fresh fruits and other perks
  • A successful and growing, multi-cultural company with globally distributed team
  • Full health insurance that covers sports, massage, physiotherapist, vaccination, etc.
  • Continual professional and personal development through employer-paid trainings and certifications e.g., AWS, English/Latvian language courses and much more
  • Motivating referral policy and if you are lucky, you can get a Grand Prize
  • Supplementary vacation days based on seniority level
