What we are building
Mimica is driven by a powerful mission: to enable enterprises, teams, and individuals to reclaim their most valuable resource—time—while enhancing efficiency, purpose, and impact in their work.

Our innovative AI-driven task mining technology closely monitors employee actions across desktops, transforming them into comprehensive process maps. Mimica’s process intelligence uncovers inefficiencies, prioritizes enhancement opportunities based on ROI, recommends optimal automation technologies (such as RPA, intelligent document processing, and GenAI), and delivers a clear blueprint for developing new automations to revolutionize workflows.

• Identify and resolve fault-tolerance, availability issues, and performance bottlenecks.
• Refactor components and services while documenting your implementations for future reference.
• Provide constructive feedback through pair programming and code reviews, supporting the growth of your peers.
• Take an active role in the hiring and onboarding of new team members, managing projects end-to-end as the team expands.

What you will bring

• A solid background in backend engineering, specializing in building high-performance production software and scalable architectures.
• A minimum of 8 years of experience in software engineering.
• Proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, along with experience in utilizing modern frameworks and technologies (such as Docker and Kubernetes) to develop high-throughput, low-latency systems.
• Practical experience in designing APIs and managing databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB), with a focus on query optimization and efficient data management.
• A thorough understanding of distributed systems concepts, including microservices, load balancing, caching, and scaling techniques.
• A commitment to upholding premium engineering standards, emphasizing code quality, maintainability, reliability, and security.
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills to methodically analyze systems, pinpoint bottlenecks, and devise effective solutions.
• A passion for continually enhancing your skills, refining team processes, and minimizing technical debt.
• Fluency in English with strong communication skills to clearly articulate complex ideas and concepts.

Bonus

• Experience in managing projects from inception to completion, encompassing specification, architecture, development, testing, deployment, release, and monitoring.
• Familiarity with working in a fast-paced international Startup/Scale-up environment, delivering value rapidly and iteratively.
• An active interest in AI, automation, or related fields.
