Who are we?

Qwili is on a mission to connect over 800 million Africans without digital access through its marketplace, sales portal, and smartphone used by micro merchants to sell digital products in the informal sector.

This is a unique and exciting opportunity, not only because of the impact our platform will make and is already making on the digitally excluded, but it will guarantee a constant stream of interesting and very challenging technical hurdles to conquer.

What are we looking for ?

We are seeking an experienced and highly motivated Backend Software Engineer to join our growing team. As a Backend Software Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining complex software applications. You should be highly independent and excited about solving difficult technical challenges.

Key Responsibilities

Design, develop, and maintain complex software applications using the latest technologies.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify and solve technical challenges.

Write clean, maintainable, and testable code.

Develop and maintain RESTful APIs, microservices, and other backend components.

Develop and maintain automated tests to ensure software quality.

Continuously improve software development processes, tools, and methodologies.

Keep up-to-date with the latest industry trends, technologies, and best practices.

Requirements

4 years + of experience as  Backend Software Engineer, with a strong portfolio of completed projects.

Strong understanding of back-end technologies such as Node.js, Java, or Python. Internally we use Typescript.

Experience with databases such as My SQL, Mongo DB, or Postgre SQL.

Knowledge of containerization technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes is a plus.

Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work independently.

Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams.

A passion for software development and a desire to learn and grow.

What's it like working here ?

We are remote friendly, though we place value on in-person interactions, to cultivate a productive culture and bond as a team, we try and meet up often for food/drinks and group discussions. We are in the early stages of building our team, so you will be working in an environment that's full opportunities to leave your mark and make a difference.

You will be provided with a new work laptop. We offer a competitive salary, employee equity options and opportunities for steep career growth.
