Our requirements

We are looking for people who:
Have Strong Engineering Fundamentals: Demonstrate deep expertise in backend engineering with Kotlin/Java. While the role is heavily backend-focused, any familiarity with frontend ecosystems is a great plus that will help you collaborate seamlessly across the platform.
Thrive under High Responsibility: Are excited by the challenge of managing critical, high-throughput microservice architectures where system stability is a top priority.
Value Quick Feedback & Continuous Impact: Enjoy working closely with an internal customer base, allowing you to receive rapid feedback on your work and see its immediate organizational impact.
Are Forward-Thinking & Innovative: Are open to experimenting with cutting-edge efficiency boosters. Our team actively explores integrating AI Agents and LLMs into our internal tooling and workflows to optimize daily operations.

Your responsibilities

Architect, develop, and scale core platform services and content management tools. The primary stack is backend-focused (Kotlin/Java, Spring, PostgreSQL, Couchbase, GCP, Hermes (our open source solution on top of Kafka), Kubernetes/Docker), with the opportunity to occasionally touch or collaborate on the frontend side (TypeScript/React).
Actively monitor, optimize, and deep-dive into platform systems to ensure maximum stability, safeguard our SLAs, and reduce technical debt.
Provide technical foundation and active support for critical business projects, ensuring new features can be deployed smoothly and swiftly.
Lead software development initiatives, supervise and mentor other team members, and document software thoroughly.
Analyze the needs of our internal users to deliver features that accelerate company-wide development and deliverability.
Shape and develop the platform's foundation to support AI-driven tooling, ensuring our services are ready to seamlessly integrate with AI agents and next-generation developer assistants.

About the project

As a Senior Software Engineer, your primary focus will be the development, maintenance, and architectural evolution of our core frontend platform services. This is a highly impactful role where your work directly ensures the high availability and stability of Allegro's primary web and mobile rendering traffic. You will be at the very center of product delivery, helping the organization scale efficiently while keeping technical debt to a minimum.

Important things for you:

  • Flexible working hours in the hybrid model (4/1) - working hours start between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. We also have 30 days of occasional remote work.
  • The salary range for this position depending on the skill set is as follows (contract of employment, tax-deductible cost):
  • PLN 18 850 - 25 900
  • Annual bonus based on your annual performance and company results.

#goodtobehere means that:

  • You will join a team you can count on - we work with top-class specialists who have knowledge- and experience-sharing in their DNA.
  • You will love our level of autonomy in team organization, the space for continuous development, and the opportunity to try new things. You get to choose which technology solves the problem and you are responsible for what you create.
  • You will value our Developer Experience and the full platform of tools and technologies that make creating software easier. We rely on an internal ecosystem based on self-service and widely used tools such as Kubernetes, Docker, Consul, GitHub, and GitHub Actions.

  • You will become part of Allegro Tech - We speak at industry conferences, cooperate with tech communities, run our own blog (it's been over 10 years!), record podcasts, lead guilds, and we organize our own internal conference - the Allegro Tech Meeting. We create solutions we love (and can) to talk about!
