We pride ourselves on keeping apps working smoothly, and the codebase tidy and well-tested. We dedicate time for upgrades, refactoring and improvements in the developer experience.

For people with skills and interest, we offer possibilities to work on our Ember.js frontend too, enabling people to grow to a fullstack role. Equally, there are opportunities to learn and be involved in infrastructure, DevOps and serverless development.

  • Capability to work remotely
  • We expect minimum four hours of overlap with central European working hours.
  • Knowledge of database technologies
  • Skills and the right mentality for test automation
  • Preferred experience:
  • Experience working with various APIs

  • Actual work-life balance with healthy 40-hour work weeks
  • Flexible work time
  • Biannual company retreats
  • Competitive salary
  • Friendly and encouraging work environment

 Our hiring process:

 After we've received and reviewed your application, there are a number of stages in our process.
  • Initial video call. You'll get to learn more about the role and our company, and we'll learn how you communicate and what are you looking for in the job.
  • Home assignment. We'll test your coding skills in building a small application. You can do this at home on your own time. The assignments usually take about 4-6 hours to complete.
  • Assignment review and skills interview. After our team has reviewed your assignment, we invite you to the next interview. We'll provide feedback and ask questions about your code. This interview also includes some pair-programming, where we do some improvements or additional features to your project.
  • Technical interview. Qualified candidates proceed to our technical interview, where we ask more in-depth technical questions.
  • Culture interview. The final step before decisions. Great cultural fit is highly important in our remote team. We also want to give you as much as possible information on how it is to work at Leadfeeder and what our culture is like.
All interviews are done remotely over video calls, but of course if you happen to be in the same city with some of our team members we're happy to organize a meeting on site.
