Junior Back-end Software Engineer - Core Engine at Make in Prague, Czechia

Make is the leading visual platform for anyone to design, build, and automate anything—from tasks and workflows to apps and systems—without the need for coding skills. We are headquartered in the flourishing tech hub of Prague, Czech Republic, and our teams are spread across the USA, UK, Germany, France, Canada, India and Chile, among other locations.

Why do we love building Make (and why you might, too)?

We are developers and we take it for granted that we can solve pretty much anything by writing software. But what if someone is not a developer or doesn't have access to one? Chances are that they will end up doing the same boring tasks over and over again, copy-pasting data from one place to another, wasting time on low-value work instead of doing something way more impactful.

With Make, we give anyone the opportunity to build powerful automations in a way that almost feels like a game. We give anyone a chance to experience the joy of building something that just works. We turn regular people into makers.

What you’ll do

Become part of a product team working on the engine that executes thousands of automations per second.
Develop & maintain backend services, APIs, and microservices.
Troubleshoot and debug issues across the stack.
Write and maintain tests.
Participate in code reviews to ensure the quality of code delivered by the team.
Invest time into learning new things and growing.
Have fun at work :)
