Are you passionate about leveraging technology for a greater good? Then come join us as a Backend Engineer. We are looking for someone with a passion for impact by making contributions in a field where technology meets sustainability.

This tool is not just a product; it’s a movement towards a more sustainable and responsible global footprint. Joining us means contributing to a practical and impactful solution that addresses critical environmental issues.

This position is available in Copenhagen as a hybrid role, and we are unable to support or offer relocation.

Job Responsibilities
As a Backend Engineer, you will join one of our product teams. We place a high value on superior software craftsmanship, adherence to coding best practices, and a team-oriented spirit. In our inclusive environment, everyone has the voice to suggest changes and improvements.

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

• Developing and optimizing scalable backend systems.
• Collaborating with other teams to define, design, and ship new features.

Background & Skills

• Proven experience as a NodeJS backend developer who knows TypeScript really, really well.
• Experienced in designing robust APIs
