About YLD:

Our goal is to help our clients keep moving forward. We work with them to build the skills and capabilities they need to stay ahead of the competition, and we know our success only happens when they succeed. We’re a team of curious, talented people, and we’re committed to making YLD a place where great people want to work, grow, and stay.

We’re a remote-first consultancy specialising in software engineering, product design, and data. Our teams are based across London, Lisbon, and Porto, and we create digital solutions that continue to deliver value long after our work is done.

About the role
As a Senior Software Engineer at YLD, you’ll be part of a client team building innovative products. We’re looking for someone curious, passionate, driven, and enthusiastic. You should be skilled in problem-solving and experienced in designing scalable, resilient, and fault-tolerant architectures. You’re also an effective communicator and a strong team player. Together with your team, you’ll thrive in a fast-paced engineering environment, delivering outstanding results and exciting projects.
Preferred skills
  • Deep Kubernetes knowledge, including the API, controllers, scheduling and networking;
  • Solid experience with Golang, to the level where you can write, test and maintain a Kubernetes operator;
  • Terraform, to the level where you own and review the modules that provision clusters;
  • Hands-on AWS experience is mandatory; experience with other cloud providers is a plus;
  • A working grasp of distributed systems: consistency models, replication, consensus and network partitions. You can reason about what happens when parts of a system disagree or can't reach each other;
  • Experience in regulated or financial systems;
  • Comfortable working with AI tools for most of your day, with the judgement to review their output and to adopt new technologies where they add value.
What you’ll get in return:
  • The chance to work with a forward-thinking, ethical, and fun group of people and to develop and grow your skills in a fast-moving business
Our typical recruitment process:
  • 1st Interview with a Talent Partner (30/45 mins)
