Proven experience working with distributed systems and message brokers such as Kafka, RabbitMQ, or similar tools.
Exposure to test-driven development (TDD) or behavior-driven development (BDD).

When we put unexpected teams in the same room, we unleash bold thinking with the power to inspire life-changing medicines. In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. Thats why we work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office. But that doesnt mean were not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility. Join us in our unique and ambitious world.
