Pfäffikon SZ, Switzerland

You will be part of a small and motivated team, actively contributing to the development of our various web applications. Most of your time will be spent working on our online surveying platforms, which total more than one million visitors per month – a number that is growing at a rapid pace. Our newest product, www.surveyhero.com, will receive the most of your attention.

You will be deeply involved in the design process for new exciting product requirements and take over responsibility for considerable parts of our existing PHP code base. Based on new requirements, you will independently analyze and elaborate possible software designs and implement them on your own, while closely working with other Back-End and Front-End Developers.

Ideally, you will also optimize our databases, improve our continuous integration processes, set up and maintain our AWS resources, extend our API and third-party integrations, give technical support to other team members, and much more.

It is easy to underestimate the technical challenges of running an online survey platform on a large scale: Users will share their surveys with as many people as possible, often resulting in unannounced, dramatic traffic spikes. Our platform must be highly available and scalable, as well as maintaining fast loading times, because survey participants won't "just come back later" if it is down; We save and process large amounts of data that needs to be made available to our users in real-time. This data is often sensitive, so security is also a very important aspect of our work; We send millions of user generated emails (survey invitations) and need to ensure that they are delivered, all while preventing abuse from spam and phishing attempts. We offer a vast number of features, resulting in a large and complex code base. Maintainable and extendable code, automated tests and a well-organized software architecture is key to the continuation of our success.This is what we are looking for:

This allows us to fully focus on creating and evolving great web applications that are currently being used by hundreds of thousands of people every day around the world.

In addition to the opportunity to be part of a very successful team and help shape our increasingly rapid growth you will benefit from the following:
