About Abios:

Abios is a Stockholm-based esports data provider, founded in 2013. We distribute industry-leading esports data and technology across the globe. Our customers include world-famous esports teams, search engines, and sportsbooks. We provide our customers with data APIs, data visualisation iframes and odds on top of which they can build the next generation of esports products.

Being a tech scaleup, our engineering team has a significant business impact and makes critical decisions for the direction of our company. We work in small agile teams with clear missions and end-to-end ownership of our product development, utilising a modern tech stack to create novel data-based esports products.  

Role description

As a Backend developer, we specifically look for people who are driven by the challenge of building robust, scalable and performant applications, where “best in class” is the given standard to go by. We also look for the knowledge and experience to know what to build in-house and what services, libraries or frameworks are best bought or brought in from the open-source community, so time and resources are spent efficiently.

We are a tight-knit team that works closely together to solve novel and complex problems in different areas of our platform. Consequently, we are looking for you who are communicative and open to both helping colleagues and asking for help and input as needed. As a Senior Engineer, it is also your responsibility to drive development practices and the team as a whole. This includes introducing new methods and frameworks that ensure high code and product quality as well as coaching less senior team members.

To be able to work efficiently with our code-base, we would like to see that you have practical experience in a few of these areas (personal or professional).

• REST & WebSocket APIs
• Golang
• Cloud-based services and infrastructure
• AWS: EKS, RabbitMQ, Redis, Lambda, Aurora etc
• Microservice infrastructure
• CI/CD pipelines
• SQL dialects & schema design
• Containerisation & Kubernetes

What we can offer you: 

Culture 

Abios is an esports startup at its core, with employees sharing a love for esports and gaming. As such, our Stockholm office has gaming computers and consoles, perfect for in-house tournaments or an after-work CS:GO full-stack. For those interested, there are events on the social calendar including exercising days, breakfast on Fridays and after work with colleagues. 

Work-life balance 

We take the health of our employees seriously and understand that sometimes life gets in the way. Hence, we allow our employees to work from home a day per week as needed. 

Compensation

Our competitive salaries and benefits include a generous parental leave program, health benefits and pension. We offer 30 days of paid leave a year because we believe everyone deserves a healthy work-life balance.

Learning

We believe in the continued learning and development of all our colleagues which is why we have access to extensive learning/educational materials via providers such as LinkedIn Learning (formerly Lynda). We also look positively at people aspiring to try out new roles in the company.

Office 

Our brand-new offices are located near Torsplan, complete with different complimentary beverages and snacks in the fridge, new shuffleboard and calm open office spaces. There are also several smaller rooms to work in peace, and meeting rooms named after popular esports genres (FPS is the largest one).
