The role

As a team, our job is to ensure high availability to deliver immediate insights from the properties that our customers manage. More than once, we’ve helped customers detect fires and events that may have caused harm to both properties and people.
We’re proud of the technical quality of our code and systems, and with this role, we hope to take that even further.
As a senior backend engineer, you will be part of an autonomous team of engineers responsible for everything from development and testing to architecture and operations.

What you'll do

Design, build, and scale Minut’s systems to handle one to two orders of magnitudes more customers and devices
Deliver new features that solve real life problems that our users experience every day.
Strive towards the infamous five-nines of availability by building resilience into the systems that ensure we can deliver on-time insights 24/7
Lead by example by delivering high-quality code with robust tests, drive architectural decisions, and share best-practices with your colleagues
Coach and mentor junior engineers to excel in their roles.

What you bring

You want to be part of a team where the whole technology stack, from hardware to apps, is developed in-house, and you interact with everyone involved
You have significant experience from several projects with a large number of users and a high-traffic load hosted in a cloud environment
You're curious and enjoy technical discussions
You enjoy the challenge of keeping both a high pace and quality
You are used to dealing with databases with terabytes of data and have experience migrating and managing them
You constantly find new ways to automate and improve tools and CI/CD pipeline
You have experience working with the tools in our technology stack (Node.js, TypeScript, MongoDB, SQL, Python, Git, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS)
Excellent communication skills in English are a requirement, but Swedish is not

The team you'll join

Minut's product and engineering team consists of 20+ engineers and designers. We come from various backgrounds, including Google, Axis, Jayway, and high-profile startups. Our expertise ranges from hardware design to deep neural networks to lively app animations. We like to say that we're a truly full-stack company with plenty of opportunities to work in all areas of the engineering team (and wider in the company)!

About us

Minut is a technology company that builds hardware and software for Airbnb hosts, property managers, and hoteliers. Customers use our services to provide better guest and tenant experiences, protect their properties, and prevent noise and nuisance complaints from neighbors.
We believe monitoring homes and properties shouldn’t compromise the privacy of those who stay and live there. To do so, we develop advanced AIs that run and process data on the edge.
Since the company’s inception, we’ve grown with our customers. While we started with Airbnb hosts, our product and technology developments have allowed us to expand to adjacent markets with incredible growth potential. For instance, residential property managers are showing significant interest in our cigarette smoke detection capabilities today.
