We’re at an exciting stage: with solid foundations and growing customer traction, we’re now focused on refining our product and scaling what works. It’s a great moment to join if you’re looking to have real impact — not just by shipping code, but by helping shape the direction of the product and how we build it.
The salary for this position is €76,000 annually.
You can work from anywhere in Europe.
About the Team
Toggl Hire is one of Toggl’s four products, operating like an early-stage B2B SaaS startup backed by a well-established company. With solid foundations and growing customer traction, we’re focused on achieving product-market fit (PMF). With a small but growing team and the backing of an established parent company, you’ll have the rare opportunity to combine entrepreneurial ownership with the stability of a larger organization.
The Role
As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will be taking ownership of one or more product domains, and work closely with product, design, and frontend engineering to deliver impactful features that solve real hiring pain points.
You’ll help shape not just how we build, but what we build — contributing to technical decisions, product direction, and team culture. We value engineers who think in systems, take initiative, and balance speed and quality.
You’ll work with modern, well-supported tech including Go, PostgreSQL, and Google Cloud Platform, and we expect you to be opinionated about architecture, trade-offs, and maintainability.
Your main responsibilities will be:
- designing, building and scaling backend services and APIs that power Toggl Hire’s core hiring workflows — including assessments, candidate pipelines, reporting and integrations.
- collaborating cross-functionally to identify, scope and deliver high-impact product initiatives — from candidate-facing UX to recruiter dashboards.
- designing, breaking down, and completing projects of a medium to large scope with high-level productivity
- looking for technical problems of existing system/product without guidance and offering solutions
- leading projects with a small group of people, such as hosting weekly meetings, communicating with other partners and stakeholders
About you
We would love to hear from you if you’re a proactive problem-solver who thrives in environments where speed, experimentation, and ownership matter. Your role isn’t limited to coding — you’re part of the product’s journey.
In particular, we are looking for:
- Strong backend engineering experience in Go
- Significant professional experience with distributed systems, PostgreSQL, and Google Cloud Infrastructure
- Experience with software engineering best practices (e.g. unit testing, code reviews, design documentation)
- Experience with performance and optimisation problems, particularly at large scale, and a demonstrated ability to both diagnose and prevent these problems
- Ability to work cross-teams and improve cross-functional relationships which will facilitate ongoing projects
- Effective communication skills, ensuring regular consensus with peers and clear status updates.
- Strong collaboration skills across the company to define, design, build, and improve the product.
- Experience with data warehouse, analytics systems, Kubernetes at scale, and system architecture at scale.
- Eagerness to contribute to the engineering team's growth, including interviewing and mentoring junior engineers, and providing precise, actionable feedback to peers.
- Proficiency in the English language, both written and verbal, is required for success in a remote and largely asynchronous work environment
Benefits
- Freedom to choose when and how much you work - we only measure results
- 24 days of paid time off a year, plus your local holidays
- In-person meetups for team-building (expenses covered)
- 4-6 weeks paid sabbatical (depending on the tenure)
- Laptop budget up to €2,500 and it renews every 3 years
- €2,000 budget to set up your home office, and additional €300 every year after 3 years of tenure
- €250 per month for co-working space membership and/or internet service at home
- €4,000 per year contribution to use for training, workshops, and conferences
- €2,000 per year contribution for any equipment or services to improve and/or maintain your physical and mental health
- Support for buying tools you need for doing your best work (even eyeglasses if you need a new pair)
