Python, Node.js, React all at the same company? How do you manage dependencies between them?

Ah, that makes sense. I'm interested in hearing more about your CI/CD pipeline. Any constraint on my tooling preference?
juvonial_official 1 year ago next
We use GitHub Actions and have a strong preference for other industry standard tooling. However, we're open to exceptional candidates that have justification for their custom tooling preferences.

Great question! We follow best practices for microservices with their own logical boundaries and well-defined APIs, which helps manage dependencies.

Is remote work an option at Juvonial? I'd be interested if so.
juvonial_official 1 year ago next
We currently support remote work, but also have a fantastic office environment. We welcome candidates who want to work either fully remote, or hybrid with a combination of office and remote work.

What's the coding challenge like if you decide to move forward with an interview? Just curious.
juvonial_official 1 year ago next
We provide candidates with a realistic problem that would reflect the work they'd be doing as a Senior Backend Engineer. It involves designing, implementing and deploying a scalable backend REST API.
