We believe people find their best-fit job when HR teams are empowered with the right tools. At talentsconnect, we help companies transform HR from a cost center into a strategic value driver—with a platform that supports smarter hiring, onboarding, and retention.
We’re remote-first, async-friendly, and focused on real impact. Our teams value learning, ownership, and collaboration across diverse experiences. If you’re excited to build scalable backend systems—and explore how AI tools can boost your impact—we’d love to meet you.
What you’ll do
As a Backend Engineer, you’ll join one of our cross-functional squads, where you’ll contribute to backend services that power products used by companies and candidates across Europe. Our systems are built with Java and Kotlin, hosted in the cloud (AWS), and delivered through a modern DevOps toolchain.
In this mid-level role, we’re looking for someone who brings curiosity, a problem-solving mindset, and a desire to improve how we work. You enjoy learning, exploring better ways of doing things, and contributing to a culture where everyone helps make our systems and processes better over time. You'll contribute across the development lifecycle—from collaborating on designs to releasing features—while continuously improving your workflow using AI-enhanced tooling.
You will:
- Build and maintain backend services in Java 21 or Kotlin, with support and guidance from more senior engineers
- Use AI tools (e.g., Windsurf, Cursor, Jetbrains AI) as part of your coding, testing, or learning process
- Participate in trunk-based development and contribute to our automated testing and CI/CD practices
- Work in a team alongside frontend developers, product managers, QA, and agile coaches
- Share feedback through peer reviews and retrospectives and contribute ideas to improve how we work
- Learn from your teammates—and teach them what you know
