[Hiring] Senior / Middle Software Development Engineer @Akvelon

Role Description

We are looking for strong Senior / Middle Software Development Engineers for a coding-heavy automated dependency management project at a developer platform company. The tool monitors outdated or vulnerable packages and creates pull requests to update them across multiple package ecosystems. The exact scope between the open-source tool and the platform remains to be confirmed.

Qualifications

• Strong hands-on coding and readiness to contribute from day one; practical coding ability matters more than years of experience.
• Ruby proficiency and ability to work with Go and Python.
• Confident everyday use of AI coding tools, including GitHub Copilot and agentic workflows.
• Git/GitHub workflows, including pull requests, code review and CI with GitHub Actions.
• Independent delivery, ownership of substantial work and good English for meetings, pull requests and issues.

Requirements

• Contribute hands-on development to automated dependency management tooling.
• Work across languages and package ecosystems to support dependency updates.
• Collaborate through pull requests, code review and CI workflows.
• Take ownership of development tasks and ramp up quickly.

Benefits

• Knowledge of package managers and ecosystems, including Bundler, npm/yarn, pip/Poetry, Go modules, Maven/Gradle, NuGet and Cargo.
• Experience with dependency management, semantic versioning and supply-chain security, including CVE/advisories.
• Docker.
• Open-source contributions, especially to relevant developer-platform or dependency-management repositories.

Working Conditions

• Overlap: until 11 AM / 12 PM PT (Eastern Europe timezone works).
• Target start: ASAP. A couple of engineers who can start in 3-4 weeks and ramp up quickly; the rest can come in a second wave.
• Locations: EMEA.
