Your Responsibilities

• Work with product, design, and other engineers to build new product features from start to finish: through ideation, research, implementation, and maintenance. For example, you might build an in-restaurant ordering feature.
• Leverage your full stack knowledge to help improve performance and reliability and polish existing features.
• Build and implement a roadmap to migrate the frontend from our old (existing component libraries) to our new stack (in-house design system).
• Establish best practices development in engineering for the Core Team.

• Experience with component-based, declarative UIs (we use React).
• Experience with GraphQL (we use Apollo Federation heavily).
• Experience with building APIs (both internal and external ones, e.g., for 3rd parties).
• Knowledge of rendering and design systems (as you'll be building it up with us).
• Insights into accessibility in web apps.
• Experience with AWS and its ecosystem (Lambdas, going through CloudWatch logs).
• (optional) Knowledge of DevOps culture and tools like GitHub Actions or Terraform.
• (optional) Experience with (or similar real-time solution).

Why You'll Love Working at aleno

• Flexible working hours. Due to the customer support and the daily cycle of our core customer base, 10:00-15:00 CET is required. If you need to finish up earlier, it's fine — that's just the default. Other than that, there are no restrictions — just attend the meetings and stay in alignment with the team.
• Paid time off. All bank holidays are off. On top of that, there are 26 days of paid time off and 5 days of sick leave.
• Hardware. We can take care of a laptop and a headset for you (if needed).
• Traveling. Company retreats are expected but not mandatory (once for the whole company and once for the product team). All conferences, local events, and online events (meetups, conferences, etc.) are highly encouraged but not mandatory. Traveling expenses can be covered in case of being a speaker and clearly mentioning aleno (for hiring, marketing, etc.)

Our Hiring Process

These typically include a conversation with the team, a technical or role-specific exercise, and time to get to know our culture and ways of working.

We do our best to keep the process efficient and streamlined — usually completing all steps within a couple of weeks.
