The company
Adore Me is ranked among the fastest-growing companies in the US. We started in 2012 with the ambitious mission to disrupt a huge traditional industry and with over 300 employees across US and Europe.
The tech factor is strong in our DNA. We have more engineers than marketers, fashion designers or business folks and we’re proud of it.
The tech
The end goal is to craft the perfect bra and ship it to millions of women. So we're talking about scalable e-commerce, coordinating our factories & robots in the distribution center, internal tools that catalyze everything.
We're one of those scaling technology startups. Think many small teams, devops, millions of users, hundreds of git repos, crazy experimenting.
It's not all perfect. We're always evolving and change is everywhere. So we're either moving from Magento to microservices, from MySQL databases to a cloud DWH, moving from local environments to a serverless Machine Learning platform, there's always some technical debt to hunt & kill. We manage a lot of uncertainty and always try to learn from our mistakes. We're getting there.
The job
You will work in a self-organized full-stack scrum team. Alongside frontend people (Angular/Vue apps), test engineers, product & UX people, scrum masters, and AI/data folks.
As a senior backend engineer, you'll be playing all day long with libraries, microservices, API gateways. Building features or tools. We're all a bit multidisciplinary so you should not be afraid to debug a crashing container, investigate some data weirdness or fix a failing test.

You
You're experienced with PHP & MySQL. Very comfortable with at least a couple of frameworks (Laravel, Symfony, ZF, etc). Know your web stuff so a little JavaScript doesn't scare you and you can survive on a Linux box.
You're passionate about technical excellence. You know, RESTful APIs, standard coding style, code reviews, unit tests, documentation, refactoring, good naming. You have opinions about traits and interfaces and SOLID and design patterns.
You're a builder and you want to impact the world around you. So you need to get stuff done. Problem solve. Move fast.
You're optimistic, have a high self worth, you speak your mind and have strong empathy for your peers. More of a team player than a lone wolf.
The perks
Competitive pay. Private health services. Trips to our Manhattan office. Continuous learning. Playful mood. Punching bag. Specialty coffee. Did we mention continuous learning? Hipster mansion near Cismigiu*. We're hosting meetups and we're going to conferences. Lounge chairs in the garden. Experienced engineers doing no-bullshit work. Macbooks and fancy dev tools.
* These days visiting the office is optional. We work from home as much as we can to stay safe.
