• You build bots in your spare time
• You have used Kibana
• You have worked with databases such as Elasticsearch

Our tech stack

Our Dashboard stack is mainly Elasticsearch and MariaDB for storage, with Symfony 8 and Angular 21. Our infrastructure runs on AWS, GCP and Azure, using Docker, Ansible and Terraform, and is monitored with Grafana, Prometheus and DataDog. We are also heavily invested in integrating AI into our engineering workflows.

What's in it for you?

You also receive a €500 stipend to set up your ideal workspace if you work hybrid or remotely. If you are full remote, the SNCF discount card is paid for so you can visit us and your team.
• Generous health benefits: we have partnered with Kenko for your healthcare needs.
• Leisure allowance: €100 per year for a sports or culture activity of your choice.
• Bike allowance: €200 per year to cover maintenance if you come to the office by bike.
