This is Our Team

Our team is turning the vision of making homes smarter, greener, and ultimately, better places to live into reality.

We develop diagnosis and monitoring web applications, that are helping consumers to get the best out of their heating appliances and supporting technicians with the information to complete their maintenance tasks, reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions.

We combine different skills, tastes, interests, and experiences into a culture that loves to challenge the status quo, looks for perfection in the little details, and deeply cares about making lives easier for the people using our products. And almost all our jokes are funny.

This team gets it done because:

• Engineers affect the backlog, adjusting priorities and scope of user stories, or adding technical items to it.
• We collaborate with other teams’ developers, to discuss and clarify doubts, or to solve bugs together.
• All our code goes through pull requests and through a battery of tests at several layers.
• We deploy to production weekly and with a click of a button.
• We have daily touchpoints for the team to meet and stay connected remotely.
• We have weekly sessions of knowledge sharing.
• We talk with customers and their needs are at the forefront of all our developments.
• Engineers own all the processes, from the customer need to the deployment and scaling of the solution
• We split into smaller teams during development to decrease the number of topics tackled by each developer and reduce context-switching.
• We launch feature experiments with ideas from the team.
• We go out of our own way to make everyone feel safe to contribute with their own ideas.
• We strive for quality in everything we do, from the format of a log message to the position of a button, we want to get details right.
• We play board games together.
• Focus times are a priority and our calendar reflects that: 80+% of mornings/afternoons without meetings.

The Tech Stack We Build With

We are building web applications sharing the same backend API.

• On the backend, we use Java 21, with RxJava, Vert.x, and Spring Boot.
• On the frontend, we use Angular 17, Typescript, and NgRx.
• Our test setup is supported by Playwright, Cypress, k6, Junit and Testcontainers.
• Our database is on MongoDB, and we cache with Redis.
• Our infrastructure is supported on Azure and managed with Terraform plus Kubernetes.

Your Contribution to Something Big

We are optimizing the way how heating systems are managed, operated, and maintained by providing knowledge and tools for our customers to reduce CO2 emissions and energy consumption in heating systems.

As a DevOps Engineer, you will be an active voice in shaping and developing products that are changing the course of residential heating and cooling solutions. You will be part of a talented, motivated, and multicultural team that fosters continuous improvement through learning, retrospectives, and feedback.

  • Automate deployment processes.
  • Keep up with new tools and trends in DevOps.
  • Contribute to the full software development lifecycle.
  • Collaborate with other developers, product owners, and designers.
    • Identify areas of improvement on our products and processes.
  • Review code and solutions constructively.
  • Live the values and principles of Agile.
  • Share knowledge with teammates.
     
• These are the areas where your experience will help us:
  • Solid knowledge of Docker, Terraform, and Kubernetes.
  • Experience with monitoring tools, like Prometheus and Grafana.
  • Ability to build, and improve upon, our CI/CD pipelines.
  • Experience with Cloud networking would be a plus.
  • Experience in agile software development.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.
  • Working experience in backend or an academic degree in Informatics Engineering or similar.

What distinguishes you: 

You would be a great fit if you love to build products with a team and learn every day. But also, you:

• Want to have an impact on people’s lives with the work you do.
• You have a DevOps mindset.
• Take good care of the things you build, from the user story refinement, through all development phases, and delivery to users.
• Learn at every opportunity and find ways to share that knowledge with the team.
• Organize your work and don’t need others to tell you what to do.
• Can work with, and improve upon, established patterns and ways of working of the team.
• Don’t shy away from debating ideas or offering contrarian views in group discussions.
• Promote conclusions and seek concrete action plans that move the team forward.
• Welcome change, in priorities, goals, or information, and are comfortable adjusting plans to make the most out of the situation.
