Overview
We are Basket (www.trybasket.com) – a fresh and exciting new approach to save, share and follow the things you love, and the people who love them too. Basket keeps you organised, up to date, and helps you buy better across all shopping categories.
To continue our growth we’re seeking a Senior Backend Engineer located in London or Auckland. With your strong production experience of Python and ETL processes, you’ll play a key role in our data extraction, transformation pipelines, data storage (MongoDB), and data delivery via AWS API Gateway (Rest APIs) and AWS AppSync (GraphQL). You’ll need a deep understanding and experience with serverless AWS (Lamba with EventBridge), and knowledge of the serverless framework (https://www.serverless.com/) would be a significant benefit.
To excel in this role, you’ll learn quickly, think big, and deliver rock-solid results in a fast-paced startup environment. You implicitly know how to balance safe decisions while proactively researching and running code experiments. You’re someone who embraces collaboration and feedback with open arms. You continuously look for ways to grow yourself, help teammates, and opportunities to make the products you work on stronger. This is a chance to join an innovative team where you will be challenged, and have significant input to shape a product we believe will become a global household name. This is an exciting opportunity to join our backend team at a pivotal time in our journey.
This role is development focused, with a small amount of coaching required for junior team members.
How We Work at Basket
At Basket, we work in 2 week development cycles with a clearly defined goal. We’re inspired by companies like Linear where quality work is more important than quantity of features released. We plan each cycle well ahead of time with team discussions, research and workshops to make sure we’re making informed decisions.
Here’s how our typical cycle looks;
2 weeks before a cycle we plan and define requirements for features
1 week before a cycle we do technical due diligence and write acceptance criteria
During a cycle we write code using test-driven development, test code to development and staging environments, collaborate with QA, Design and PM team members to ensure features are production ready.
What You'll Do
Write, improve and maintain serverless functions to accurately transform and load data into efficient and organised MongoDB storage
Develop and maintain 3rd party data clients to enrich stored data
Create and update API endpoints for a frontend client using AWS API Gateway (Rest APIs) and AWS AppSync (GraphQL)
Analyse and tune application performance with a focus on efficiency using analytics tools such as Lumigo, Sentry, Segment and DataDog
Research and architect solutions using serverless architecture patterns
Implement and improve analytics and application monitoring performance
Approach your work using test driven development (TDD) to ensure the integrity of your code and our services
About You

Located in London, UK or Auckland, NZ
5+ years full-time work experience as a backend engineer on production services
Advanced knowledge of Python ^3.10 and/or NodeJS ^15.0.0
Deep knowledge of webpage parsing, including XPath and Regex
Excellent experience with MongoDB and DynamoDB
Production experience with AWS services in a serverless microservices context, such as Lambda, AppSync, API Gateway, S3, SNS, SQS, Cognito, EventBridge

Experience working in a VC-backed startup environment
Our Culture
Our culture is built on respect, collaboration and a drive to shake up the world of shopping. We’re at the beginning of our journey with the opportunity for new team members to lead projects, and shape services that customers interact with daily.

\nAbout Your team\n\nO’Reilly Media’s Platform Engineering team supports O’Reilly’s premier training service, which is used by technologists, managers, and designers around the world to hone their skills and improve their craft. We are made of many small teams that are broadly distributed across the US, featuring tightly collaborative groups of developers, designers, and product managers constantly encouraging each other to deliver work that instills pride and fulfillment.\n\nOur developers are organized into a network of small teams with embedded product managers, designers, and front-end specialists focused on specific functional areas. We believe deeply in automated testing, code review, and iterative improvement. We are in the midst of a transition from a monolithic web application to a microservices ecosystem, and welcome individuals who’ve made that journey before or are interested in starting it with us.\n\nOur team is located in the United States. We happily support a variety of employees who connect remotely from the American South, the Pacific Northwest, New England, and the Midwest, as well as those who come into our offices in Boston or Sebastopol, CA but we cannot offer full time employment to those who live and operate outside of the United States.\n\nAbout the Job\n\nOur backend engineers are focused on building a diverse family of scalable and robust micro-services, aimed at a variety of educational audiences.

We also utilize Ruby on Rails in some key applications. Many of our applications and services are dockerized and deployed into Kubernetes clusters by Jenkins.

We desire candidates who work comfortably in an agile environment and with collaborators who are distributed across multiple time zones. We value colleagues who are helpful, respectful, humble, and always willing to do what’s best for our users. We desire developers who treat automated tests as essential, and believe that code reviews are a crucial path of learning and of sharing knowledge. The women and men of our platform team have taken many traditional and nontraditional paths to the developer profession, and we welcome diverse teams that are bound together by a mutual love of learning.\n\nRequirements\n\n\n* 2 years of experience developing web applications and services\n\n* Demonstrated competency with Python and Django\n\n* Experience building and maintaining RESTful APIs\n\n* Experience with automated testing and test-driven development\n\n* Experience with continuous integration tools and a rapid release cycle\n\n\n\n\nExperience Bonuses\n\n\n* Django-REST-Framework\n\n* Celery\n\n* React and Redux\n\n* Docker\n\n* Kubernetes\n\n* Microservice architecture\n\n* RabbitMQ or similar messaging system\n\n* Node.js\n\n* Scrum\n\n* Ruby on Rails\n\n* Go\n\n\n \n\n#Salary and compensation\n
