About the role

Our client is building an infrastructure that will define the new era of corporate wellness. Backed by Itnig, the mission is to make it easy for SMEs to manage their employees' benefits in a 100% centralized way, eliminating administrative and technological complexity.

It is the trust infrastructure for major industry players in Italy and now also Factorial, which is now looking for new teammates to help bring this capability to more companies in different European countries.

To achieve this, we are looking for versatile professionals with a product-driven mindset and a desire to make an impact. We are a team of problem solvers, naturally curious, with a strong growth culture where collaboration, the exchange of ideas, and joint evolution come first.

What you'll get

We believe that if you are an experienced person you will be clear about what you are looking for professionally. That is why our proposal will be clear from the start:

  • Salary: We will be 100% transparent about the salary range because we want your experience to be compensated taking into account Bilbao salaries.

  • Work model: Hybrid and flexible. Some days you do need to come into the office, yes, but half the month you can work remotely from home.

  • Real well-being

    • Health insurance (Alan): Company-funded, with reimbursement for physiotherapy, dental, psychology, nutrition, and optometry.

    • Flexible compensation (Factorial Benefits): So you can save on meals, transportation, or childcare.

    • If you get sick: We cover 100% of your salary for the first 3 days.

  • Disconnection: Your birthday is a day off. In addition to your vacation days (23 days).

  • VISA: We sponsor your VISA and that of your partner/family if you are not a European resident.

    • Don't live in Europe? Don't worry, if we think you are a good fit, we will find a way to work together.

  • Galatea tortilla: On Thursdays when we go to the office, we go out for a tortilla together.

  • Multiculturalism: The team is made up of people with different backgrounds, expertise, and nationalities.

  • Off Site & activities: There are times during the year when we do other types of activities outside the office.

Hiring process

We really like to get to know you, which is why our process is designed to be close and transparent. All interviews are conducted via video call, although we will be happy to invite you to visit our facilities if you prefer to come see us:

  1. Profile Review: We analyze your background and initial fit.

  2. Initial Connection (HR): A first conversation to learn about your journey, understand what you are looking for personally and professionally, and make sure you connect with the values of the people who make up the company.

  3. Technical and human match: The backend engineering team comes into play. We want to get to know you better, talk about the projects you have built (have your GitHub ready!), and validate both the technical and personal fit.

  4. Conversation with our CEO: A final conversation to go deeper into the company's vision and answer any remaining questions you may have.

  5. Offer and Hiring: We present our proposal and, if everything fits, welcome to the team!

Your Mission

We are not looking for someone who just "participates" in the project, but rather someone who…

We are looking for a proactive person who wants to take responsibility and grow along with the project itself.

Your main challenge will be to support your backend teammates in development, but you will also need to roll up your sleeves and do other things when the situation requires it.

On a day-to-day basis, this means:

  • Designing, developing, and maintaining scalable backend applications using Ruby on Rails.

  • Building secure, high-performance RESTful APIs and system integrations for cloud platforms.

  • Developing and implementing microservices that improve the scalability, reliability, and maintainability of the application.

  • Participating in the full software development lifecycle, including technical design, development, testing, code reviews, deployment, and production support.

  • Collaborating with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver high-quality software solutions aligned with business requirements.

  • Optimizing database interactions and application performance, ensuring code quality and maintainability.

  • Writing unit and integration tests to ensure reliable and stable software releases.

  • Contributing to technical discussions, architectural improvements, and the continuous improvement of engineering best practices.

  • Good technical communication.

  • Ability to work with moderate (not constant) supervision.

  • Good judgment for asking for help and proposing simple improvements.

  • Good command of Git.

  • Experience optimizing SQL queries and data modeling in relational databases.

  • Ability to integrate third-party services via webhooks and RESTful APIs.

  • Experience applying object-oriented software design patterns and clean code principles in the service layer.
