Description
Oura’s mission is to empower every person to own their inner potential. Our award-winning products help our global community gain a deeper knowledge of their readiness, activity, and sleep quality by using their Oura Ring and its connected app. By providing daily insights and practical steps to inspire healthy lifestyles, we’ve helped hundreds of thousands of people understand and improve their health.
For us, empowering the world starts with living our values and empowering our team. As a quickly growing company focused on helping people live healthier and happier lives, we work to promote work-life balance and ensure that our team members have what they need to do their best work—both in and out of the office.
We are looking for a full-stack developer to join our Ecosystem squad in Helsinki, Finland. Being located in Helsinki is not a requirement for the position but is considered a plus. Being located in Finland is required and Oura will help with relocation, if necessary.
The currently eight-member Ecosystem squad is responsible for designing, building, and maintaining Oura’s B2B products and Oura’s web app. The ideal candidate wants to understand our users, build products that solve their needs, proactively advocate for technical investments, and gets a kick out of crafting quality code. We strongly value a proactive attitude and end-to-end ownership: taking a rough idea, working with others to turn it into a concrete feature or product, deploying it and monitoring its usage to make sure it solves the intended needs.
Because so much of our work is done together with other team members, empathy and excellent communication skills are very strongly valued at Oura. English is the de-facto language at Oura—no Finnish required.
Some buzzwords related to our current tech stack:
- TypeScript + React + SVG
- Python + Tornado
- AWS + EKS + CDK
- CircleCI + Sentry + LaunchDarkly
As an Ecosystem squad full-stack developer, you will:
- Contribute to a product that improves the lives of hundreds of thousands of people across the globe
- Partner closely with the squad’s product manager and designers to help design and deliver great digital products
- Write code that is easy to understand and reason about
- Push for architectural improvements that will allow us to scale and build new types of products
- Work closely together with other developers on the squad, both around code and team processes and practices
- Be comfortable working with a diverse and talented group of team members residing around the world
- Be productive and do your best work
- Have the ability to move to different roles across the company as Oura grows and new opportunities open up
Requirements
We would love to have you on our team if you have any of the following, but don’t worry too much if you don’t fill all the requirements:
- Have 4+ years of practical full-stack development work experience
- Have front-end experience with JavaScript or TypeScript and modern frameworks such as React
- Have backend experience with Python
- Although not required, data engineering experience is a big plus
- Enjoy writing maintainable and well-tested code
- Have architected, built and deployed scalable, performant web services in production on AWS or similar platforms, and can apply architectural patterns and best practices.
- Have an affinity for automating busywork and fixing problems at the root
- Have a pragmatic entrepreneurial attitude and delivery-focused mindset: you can handle tradeoffs between short-term goals and long-term tech debt
