Product is dating platform – very complex – it consists of hundreds of similar dating sites - (white label approach) – covering European and American market.

Developers are working with live traffic – at the same time users are taking actions like registering, signing up/in, updating their profiles etc.

Platform has tens of millions of profiles (ofc not all of them are active), and statistics shows that at 24h-level every day it has been sent 7-8 millions of emails. Each email is defined as an iteration between profiles. Platform is focused to getting new users, so there is not much space for experiments with ultra new technologies with live traffic (each mistake costs a lot if sites are down even for few minutes), so we are using well known proven technologies which already showed its efficacy.

While developing new functionalities we use Test Driven Development – TDD, so Unit tests are very important. We also write acceptance tests, depending on which application it is about.

We are trying to keep close to Domain Driven Design – DDD.

We use SOLID principles and consider it as very important in work.

We use Elastic Search as search engine.

Requirements:

-EDT working time

-Employment as contractor with salary in gross range up to 4.5k USD

-Vacation days: 10 working days + public holidays from his/her country

-need candidates to be actual seniors, ideally strong ones

-strong database skills, MySQL in specific, they don’t need to be a DBA however

-E-commerce experience is a must. Not like, using a library in a wordpress site that can make transactions, but experience talking directly to processors (which we do all day, every day)

-Frontend is nice, but not required for the commerce developers we’re seeking.

-Queued processing (RabbitMQ specifically) is super helpful

-distributed application experience, not necessarily a must, but it would go a long way

• -experience with large-scale distributed databases (plus if it considers 1,000,000 transactions per day) and with large-scale websites (plus if it considers more than 80 pages and up to 700,000 unique visitors per day)
