Our values are short and we actually use them: Have Empathy. Be Curious. Be Intellectually Honest. Achieve Excellence. Remember to Relax.
Role
You would work on the backend systems that move data through Nexla: JVM services, the streaming runtime on Kafka, and the distributed processing underneath it. Production Java every day. You take a problem, shape the design, build it, and own it through deploy and on-call. You debug it when it breaks. Small, focused team, which is why the ownership is real rather than nominal. This role sits closest to the integration layer, where the platform meets everything outside it, so the problem below is the one you would live in.
