Parqet is a financial services platform that allows both large and small investors to visually combine and analyze all their portfolios. It emphasizes simplicity and user-friendliness, providing financial software that makes tracking wealth enjoyable and straightforward, with automated processes for ease of use.

📋 Description

• We are building the backbone of our platform — a central API for financial data that powers all our applications. • Your work ensures complex data streams from multiple sources become a unified, reliable, and lightning-fast foundation on which we can build new products. • Design and develop a central API that consolidates financial data and assets (stocks, ETFs, etc.) from different sources and makes them consistently available. • Build endpoints that elegantly abstract financial and mathematical complexity, forming the foundation for our apps and websites. • Ensure the API provides a first-class developer and product experience for our internal teams and applications — stable, performant, and intuitive. • Debug and resolve production issues across the stack — you'll be close to the product and ensure a robust foundation. • Continuously elevate our engineering standards, tooling, and processes. • Work closely with frontend, design, and product teams to turn the API into real user experiences — with impact, speed, and passion. • Improve Parqet's existing services and stack.

🎯 Requirements

• Several years of experience developing and operating backends and APIs in production. • Passion for API design — you think in clear interfaces and well-considered data models. • Strong knowledge of Python or Node.js (+ TypeScript), and experience with technologies such as MongoDB, ClickHouse, Redis, or Kafka. • High standards for stability, reliability, and performance of production systems. • Ability to deliver projects end-to-end and successfully complete them — even when multiple technologies and services are involved. • Enjoy working closely with product, design, and frontend to turn your API into real user experiences. • Strong emphasis on documentation, testing, and monitoring. • Effective communication in German and English, clear and precise.

🏖️ Benefits

• Equity — 0.1% to 0.5% • Profit sharing — employee participation in company profits • Location — Remote (work authorization in Germany required) • Working hours — Full-time (40h/week)
