Job Description

Senior Fullstack Engineer

At Kpler, we are dedicated to helping our clients navigate complex markets with ease. By simplifying global trade information and providing valuable insights, we empower organisations to make informed decisions in commodities, energy, and maritime sectors.

Since our founding in 2014, we have focused on delivering top-tier intelligence through user-friendly platforms. Our team of over 700 experts from 35+ countries works tirelessly to transform intricate data into actionable strategies, ensuring our clients stay ahead in a dynamic market landscape. Join us to leverage cutting-edge innovation for impactful results and experience unparalleled support on your journey to success.


As a Senior Fullstack Engineer for the MT Inbox crew, your mission is to be an engineering leader, driving high-impact initiatives to provide reliable and scalable email client solutions to our customers. This role requires independent handling of complex technical communication with stakeholders and clients, ensuring the system's performance and reliability. You will also be responsible for mentoring and coaching junior and mid-level engineers to foster engineering excellence within the team.
Key Responsibilities
  • Design and Build End-to-End Features: Develop scalable and high-performance frontend and backend systems, working across the stack with technologies like AWS, K8S, Ruby on Rails(including Sidekiq), Python and Vue.js.

  • Lead Strategic Alignment and Initiatives: Drive high-impact engineering initiatives and manage technical communication with engineering managers, product managers, designers, and customers independently to ensure solutions align with critical business and reliability requirements.

  • Champion Engineering Excellence: Write robust, maintainable code and implement best practices around testing, CI/CD, performance, observability and reliability.

  • Architect Scalable Systems: Design and implement distributed systems and microservices with event-driven architecture using Kafka.

  • Maintain and Scale Tech Stack: This role offers a unique balance - you'll lead the scaling efforts of our production Rails environment to keep pace with our growth, while simultaneously architecting 'greenfield' components as we refactor toward our future-state tech stack.

  • Mentor and Coach: Serve as an engineering leader by mentoring junior and mid-level engineers on development best practices, engineering operational excellence, and complex system design.

  • Own Operations and Reliability: Take part in monitoring, incident response, production support and performance tuning across the stack.

  • Contribute to Agile Culture: Actively participate in sprint planning, retrospectives, and other Agile ceremonies to continuously improve team practices.

Key Stakeholders
This role will interact regularly with Engineering Managers, Product Managers, Designers, Other Engineers, and cross-functional teams (Crew Inbox, Crew Auth, Crew Archiplatform, Crew API etc).
Experience and Background

Essential:

  • 6+ years developing production-grade applications with Ruby/Python, backend frameworks (preferably Ruby on Rails + Sidekiq and FastAPI) and frontend frameworks (preferably Vue.js) in TypeScript.

  • Strong expertise in designing, implementing, and maintaining microservices architectures.

  • Solid hands-on experience with Kafka and event-driven systems.

  • Proficiency in MySQL, Elasticsearch, and Redis.

  • Familiarity with AWS and infrastructure orchestration tools like Kubernetes and Helm.

  • Deep understanding of data structures, distributed systems, and system design principles.

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, technical leadership and mentoring, strong adherence to Agile methodologies, decisive and purpose-driven (we make things happen), supportive and collaborative nature (we always help each other).

  • A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field.

Desirable:

  • Familiarity with Hexagonal or Clean Architecture principles.

  • Experience integrating SDKs and APIs into web and mobile apps.

  • Exposure to DevOps tooling and practices (GitHub Actions, observability, SonarQube, etc.).

  • Prior work in fast-paced, product-focused environments or the maritime/logistics domain.

  • Prior experience with React Native and MongoDB.
