About The Company
Driftock is a marketing technology business founded in 2013 on a mission to become the world leading automotive & e-Mobility marketing platform
We're a team of passionate, friendly, driven people who work hard, but also believe that you can do that whilst still enjoying life! We have a balanced, flexible culture where we have fun and achieve big things for the company and our awesome clients.

We believe in continuous improvement and we are constantly optimising how we work and communicate.
We plan our work biweekly, using a lean approach (a mixture of Kanban and eXtreme Programming). This way we are able to deploy several times a day, allowing us to have a short feedback cycle on our changes.
We have a data-driven mindset and we use data to drive decisions on everything from user story prioritisation to company strategy.
We also strongly believe in observability and keeping a close eye on how our product is behaving.
Our platform is made of multiple services (mainly built in Elixir, plus some Ruby services that we are transitioning to Elixir), talking to each other via APIs and RabbitMQ and storing data in Postgresql and redis. All services are hosted on Kubernetes and Google Cloud.
What We're Currently Working On
After a period of experimentation, we are in the process of migrating our app to Phoenix LiveView and Phoenix Components, coming up with best practices and defining a style guide. We are also working on improving the performance of our processing pipeline, as well as polishing existing and growing new product features. In addition we are always open to opportunities to geek out with new technologies.
Requirements
You should have strong backend experience (Elixir and Ruby are our favourites) and some experience with frontend frameworks
You should demonstrate a desire to continuously learn to improve your technical, communication and other soft skills
You value and enjoy working in a small team, collaborating closely with other engineers as well as members of other teams
You can provide new and diverse viewpoints for our technical and product discussions and be comfortable making technical decisions
You are interested in, and have a view on agile practices such as continuous delivery, TDD, pair programming, code reviews and retrospectives
You should have some experience mentoring engineers and a view on how to create a productive team
You are keen to ensure there is a high standard of quality and security in the software we produce as a team
You can work in the same timezone as the rest of the team (flexible)
Benefits
A fully remote role. Make use of a flexible working environment, with some travel requirements for company or team meetings when necessary
A holiday entitlement of 24 days, increasing a day each year, capped at 28 **
Budget to attend conferences or courses to further your development
Flexibility to take courses or time on personal goals
Maternity and Paternity - Family comes first, so we have a package that means you can spend the time you need with your growing family **
