Backend Developer for the Product Search Content Team

Our team is responsible for the product outcome and is not limited in its choice of technologies: we launch various features, work with large volumes of data, and build our own dynamic content system to aggregate all possible products from the internet into our database and create a great product based on them.

We are looking for a strong backend developer to make the Search experience better and more convenient for the user.

What tasks await you

Working with filters We want to help the user find products that match their specific filters. For this, we need to prepare the data, deliver it correctly to the runtime, and perform filtering based on it.

Working with data You need to be able to dynamically update data when the content in our database changes. This is a large architecture involving many services, and it's necessary to understand how each of them works to achieve a great product.
