- 27 days paid time off
- Working remotely with flexible working arrangements (fully remote position within Europe’s timezone (UTC-1:00 – UTC+2:00))
What is the company’s mission?
Roadie helps companies manage their internal services by making it easy to adopt Backstage. Backstage is a service catalog which was created inside Spotify and has been battle-tested in production since 2016. Every day, thousands of Spotify employees use Backstage to do critical development and operations work.
We are a talented group of engineers who experienced the problems of service sprawl first-hand and decided that there is a better way. By unlocking the power of Backstage, we can make software development easier, faster and more enjoyable.
We are developers who care about developer experience. Learn why the company was founded.
