Our team is remote first and distributed across Europe. We are looking to expand it with a Senior Backend Engineer who is agile while keeping a focus on quality, and enjoys working in a remote environment with the possibility of mentoring more junior peers.
In our mission of democratizing coaching, we are currently focused on making sure the experience for both coaches and coachees navigating through our new coaching programs is as smooth as possible.
CoachHub is a diverse company with a remote-first and flexible culture. In our team, we use Scrum and try to combine synchronous and asynchronous ways of working to ensure a dynamic collaboration while making sure everybody feels represented on their ways of working. Quality is very important to us, so we strive to deliver incremental pieces of work that allow us to reduce time to market without sacrificing testing.
