Role details

TRANSFORMING CIRCULAR ECONOMY

EMBRACE OUR MISSION

  • Circularity for everyone!
  • We are on a mission to help people recover the value embedded in their pre-owned goods, transforming them into currency, and enabling brands to sell more sustainably.
  • We've built a unique AI-powered, product-centric platform that connects retailers, consumers, and professional used-goods buyers.
  • As we scale rapidly across Europe, we're raising the bar for sustainability in one of the largest markets worldwide.

LIVE BY OUR CULTURE

  • We foster autonomy within our team, driven by our mission and the belief that 'culture eats strategy for breakfast.' In our view, agile management, long-term planning, and a deductive approach often fall short—only execution and tangible results truly matter.
  • We believe in shared ownership of the company and learning through experimentation.

JOIN OUR TEAM

  • We are highly focussed on people and work relentlessly to put the best possible team together. Veliuers have worked in some of the best startups worldwide: Senso, Palantir, Reddit, Meta, Scalapay, Sibill, ScaleAi, Satispay and more!
  • We secured our 4m USD pre-seed round in July 2025 and we have giga office in Milan (Italy).

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and ship backend services and product features, understand the business needs and the business model.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with design and product teams
  • Drive key decisions around infrastructure, testing, and scalability

Tech in our stack

Event-driven architecture leveraging AWS EventBridge. Backend composed of lambda functions written in go. Infrastructure as code using CDK. Frontend in Typescript and React.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in early-stage startups or small engineering teams
  • Familiarity with Docker, CDK, and production-grade deployment
  • Background in enterprise SaaS, fintech, AI tools, or developer platforms

Education

  • Master of Science in Computer Science, or Bachelor in presence of exceptional achievements (e.g. started a company as primary tech operator).
  • Non-CS education considered only in case of proven track record in building tech.
