About the role
At Software Mansion, being a Software Engineer means:
- flat structure, fast technical decisions, no unnecessary stress – we draw from our experience of working with many startups;
- an opportunity to close cooperation with clients, but also chance to work with internal or open-source projects;
- an opportunity to get to know new technologies and working with experienced engineers constantly learning from each other;
- very little chance you'll have to work with legacy code.
We mostly work with tech startups (but not only), so our projects are always changing and dynamic. We plan our development just a few weeks ahead, and adapting is a big part of the job. But we like it like that – we release things fast, and our clients are open to experimenting with new technologies.
Requirements
More than knowledge of specific technologies and years of experience, we value willingness to work with at least one of technologies we use and technological flexibility. Right now the most used programming languages at Software Mansion are: React Native, JavaScript/TypeScript with React, Python with Django, Elixir with Phoenix, Node.js, Ruby on Rails. Even if you don't know any of the listed technologies, you are still encouraged to apply.
That being said, we expect you to have:
- great command of Polish (which we use internally), and English (most of our clients are US-based);
- previous commercial experience working as Software Engineer.
It would be bonus, if you:
- have experience in technical mentoring and leadership of a project;
- have experience working with clients and know how to provide technical consulting.

- we offer contract of employment, B2B contract, contract of mandate – whatever suits you best;

- at the beginning of our cooperation, we expect you to be able to work at least 3 days in our office. After the first three months, you can work mainly remotely, with only occasional visits.
