  • The main application you will be working on is a scalable, high-performance API for supporting large-scale e-commerce websites (thousands of API calls per second). 
  • The API has features for e.g., product catalog, shopping cart and checkout. It is a rewrite of functionality in an existing application, that the same team is maintaining and migrating the functionality from piece by piece. 
  • The old application has grown organically with changing requirements, and we have decided to rewrite the API functionality from the ground up, with a changed architecture. 
  • We are implementing the main business logic as a GraphQL API written in PHP 7 on top of a MariaDB database. 
  • We use ElasticSearch and Redis and a lot of caching to produce an API that is very performant and hard to kill. 
  • We will generate events using change data capture with Debezium and feed those through Kafka. On top of this, we are implementing a caching proxy as a Cloudflare Worker using TypeScript. 
  • We work according to Scrum and our teams are self-organizing, meaning the teams themselves decide on what tech stack to use for a particular project and how to best deliver. 
  • We are all very ambitious and love to learn, and we hope you do too. 
  • We spend a lot of time coaching each other, pair programming, and sharing knowledge. 
  • We organize and sponsor the PHP and TypeScript meetups in Wroclaw (we promise they will be back after Covid!).

Centra

75-100

We are a tight-knit, young and professional team located in Poland and Sweden.

We’re shaping the future of e-commerce by building a tech-driven platform that enables Direct-to-Consumer and wholesale e-commerce brands to grow and accelerate globally. We are growing exponentially, and our application is battle- and stress-tested by some of the strongest brands in the business. With over 4 000 000 orders processed last year, and an ability to handle thousands of API calls every second, we aim to go even bigger – with zero limits ahead. We use Redis, Elasticsearch and a lot of caching to produce API endpoints that are performant and hard to kill. 

We are looking for people who want to have a real impact. Not only because of the fact, that our platform help with building milions of ecommerce shops - but also because we are trying to create a space where everyone can be heard - with their ideas, needs, comments. Who do their work with passion and look for a good place for development.
In Centra, we trust our employees, we give a lot of freedom in action, and at the same time - teamwork is very important to us.
We will provide you not only ability to work with new technologies, but also amazing atmosphere and time with great people - and it's not only vain promises, or publicity stunt (although our marketing department is also great 😉).
