- Languages & Frameworks: Python (Flask, FastAPI), Celery
- Databases & Storage: PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, Amazon S3
- Infrastructure & Cloud: AWS (Lambda, CloudWatch, Kinesis, Athena, EKS), Docker, Kubernetes
- Architecture & Tooling: Microservices, Event-driven systems, GitHub Actions for CI/CD, NewRelic

We handle everything from influencer payments and reporting to analytics and insights, making it simple for brands and influencers to connect, collaborate, and generate results.
We work cross-functionally in a hybrid environment, collaborating across disciplines to deliver impactful solutions. In this team, you’ll find a balance of challenge, creativity, and ownership, with plenty of opportunities to make a real impact on Flowbox’s core product.
We believe in pair programming, regular code reviews, and open feedback, helping each other grow while maintaining high-quality standards across everything we build.

As a UGC Platform Backend Developer at Flowbox, you’ll play a vital role in shaping the core infrastructure that powers our product, a platform used by hundreds of leading brands around the world. You’ll be part of an autonomous, cross-functional, agile team that designs, builds, and maintains backend services that are highly available, low-latency, and scalable.
