Are you an experienced backend developer eager to make a significant impact? We are looking for multiple backend developers to join Upright's platform and data teams:

The platform is currently used by 1,000+ institutional investment organizations and corporations, mainly in Europe and North America.

Upright's data teams are responsible for producing Upright's impact data, along with supporting datasets. Upright's data teams plan, develop and maintain the data pipelines and algorithms that produce Upright's net impact data. Software developers working in Upright's data teams work tightly together with data scientists who also write code, but who focus more on complex algorithms.

Your exact role in will be tailored during the recruiting process based on your background, experience, skill level, and interests.

Understanding of the whole software lifecycle including design, development, deployment and operations
Ability to think analytically, structure your work, and solve problems proactively
Ability to work both autonomously and as part of a team that includes technical and non-technical stakeholders
