Summary

Yelp engineering culture is driven by our values: we're a cooperative team that values individual authenticity and encourages creative solutions to problems. All new engineers deploy working code their first week, and we strive to broaden individual impact with support from managers, mentors, and teams. At the end of the day, we're all about helping our users, growing as engineers, and having fun in a collaborative environment.

Want to join a team where your work makes a significant impact? Yelp is the richest source of local business data and user-generated content in the world. Our backend engineers use that data to power our websites and mobile apps. As a remote backend engineer, you'll work closely with our mobile and web application developers to bring our 200M+ reviews to millions of users.

Backend engineers take on a diverse set of challenges across Yelp engineering. Do you want to make a positive impact on Yelpers looking for the best local businesses? Build products for business owners to get the most out of Yelp? Take on some of the most meaningful problems in distributed computing and API design? We'd love to share more about how our agile team creates an amazing experience for millions of users.

This opportunity requires you to be located in the Republic of Ireland. We'd love to have you apply, even if you don't feel you meet every single requirement in this posting. At Yelp, we're looking for great people, not just those who simply check off all the boxes.

What you'll do:

  1. Build platforms to increase the development velocity of new product features.
  2. Iterate quickly using Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment principles.
  3. Articulate a technical vision and execute it.
  4. Give back by mentoring other engineers and sharing the skills you learn.
  5. Collaborate with team members and engineers across the company to design elegant systems.

What it takes to succeed:

  1. Demonstrated industry experience.
  2. Great understanding of and interest in well-designed APIs.
  3. Relevant experience in at least one server-side programming language (Java, Python, Scala).
  4. You're excited about the challenges of scalability, reliability, and performance.
  5. Willing to delve into infrastructure to unlock more performant solutions.

What you'll get:

  1. Full responsibility for projects from day one, a collaborative team, and a dynamic work environment.
  2. Competitive salary, a pension scheme, and an optional employee stock purchase plan.
  3. 25 days paid holiday (rising to 29 with service), plus one floating holiday.
  4. €150 monthly reimbursement to help cover remote working expenses.
  5. €95 caregiver reimbursement to support dependent care for families.
  6. Private health insurance, including dental and vision.
  7. Flexible working hours and meeting-free Wednesdays.
  8. Regular 3-day Hackathons, bi-weekly learning groups, and productivity spending to support and encourage your career growth.
  9. Opportunities to participate in digital events and conferences.
  10. €95 per month to use toward qualifying wellness expenses.
  11. Quarterly team offsites.
