Have a solid knowledge of common algorithms and data structures.
Have a basic knowledge of REST API's and SQL/NoSQL databases.
Have good communication skills.

And plenty of others - Docker, Werkzeug, Gunicorn, SQLAlchemy, Django, Nginx, Pytest...
Git is our version control system of choice.
And, naturally we are always prepared to introduce new technologies if the need should arise!

We value our team more than anything else. We like to learn from each other and share knowledge. Our engineering team is built upon a culture of initiative and openness, where we embrace open discussion about potential technical solutions and genuine curiosity. We value expertise, integrity, accountability and patience.
