Cape Town, South Africa Zappi Full time

Zappi is a fast growing consumer insights platform helping Fortune 500 companies deeply understand their customers. Our platform allows customers to pre-test new ideas and creative content before launch. From new products, media campaigns, names, logos, packaging or flavours, Zappi allows companies to kill bad ideas and improve on good ones. Customers can analyse their insights across their organisation and see their performance relative to the rest of their market. We bring together top expertise in data science and visualisation, UX and engineering to create a platform that allows non-expert users to make high-stakes decisions easily and confidently. Our working culture is incredibly important to us and our team – our retention is industry-leading.

The Research Building team

The Research Building team works to reduce any unnecessary friction between the Customer and their Insights. The team is responsible for the entire Configuration Journey experienced by our Customers, from landing on their Home Page to deciding to test their ideas in various Markets and Products through the ideas lifecycle.

In order to achieve their goals, each team works in close partnership with our design and research functions and leans on learnings from customer’s experiences. Each team consists of Javascript and Ruby developers working with React talking to Rails API services via REST. You will work closely with other engineering teams, building systems which can describe, manage and execute audiences in a scalable and meaningful way. You will work in an engineering function that practises continuous integration and deploys to production multiple times per day on autoscaling Kubernetes cluster running on AWS.

Who we’re hiring

- You will need to be able to demonstrate characteristics of an experienced engineer (this is generally more than 3 years experience)
- You are able to demonstrate how you add value to a team as a senior engineer, and what you expect from a high performing team
- You have transferable technical experience. We don’t require deep expertise in our tech stack if you can demonstrate your ability to learn new technologies
- You have the right to work in the location advertised

What do the first 30,60,90 days look like?

In your first 30 days you’ll take part in our Zappi 101 engineering onboarding where you’ll get familiar with our business and engineering domains, you’ll meet your buddy, team and manager, and work towards your first code change. Over the next 60 days you’ll have established a pattern of impactful contributions to our codebases, execute a collaborative code/system design, begin influencing the direction of the team and contributing to team ceremonies (e.g. planning).

Benefits

- Salary range R850,000-R900,000 per annum. Salaries are benchmarked annually.
- Unlimited holidays – we want well rested and motivated teams so encourage people to take plenty of time off. We don’t cap your allowance, but do set a minimum of at least 20 days per year plus national holidays
- Three company-paid mental health day's of rest every year (these are pre-scheduled, so the entire company can take the same days off regularly to reset)
- Thoughtfully designed offices to support both individual work and collaboration without interrupting others
- Private medical healthcare cover
- Medical Aid
- Group risk, life & disability contributions
- Wellbeing benefits such as free yoga and access to trained therapists / counsellors
- Paid 24h secure parking in Cape Town
- Free coffee, lunches and in-office snacks
