Platform Engineer

Mentimeter is a product-first, tech-heavy, fast-growing, inclusive and profitable startup built by engineers. Back in 2014, we felt that boring and inefficient meetings had to go, so we decided to create a platform to change this. Eight years later, Mentimeter is recognized as the fastest-growing Swedish startup, with 200 million users and customers from over 200 countries; the journey has just begun.
Mentimeter is a high transaction system built in React, Ruby, Node and Go with a PostgreSQL database for persistence, Redis for caching and queuing, AWS Redshift for Business Intelligence, Cloudflare as a CDN, and WebSockets to enable a fast and interactive polling experience. We host on Heroku and use Github Actions and Concourse for CI. We monitor using Datadog.
Our core principles and basis for our culture:
Inclusiveness - transparency, equality and diversity
Work smart - good enough, but know when to excel
Professionalism - "the consultant mindset"
Be humble to other people’s work
Have fun
