About the team

By joining Rossum you will become a member of a team of 11 passionate Engineers, who work following the Pipedrive agile framework. We implement new features and improvements on focused missions without distraction or interruptions. When not on a mission, we take care of the maintenance and support of the services we built in a Launchpad team.

We are all geeks and hackers who like to engineer beautiful and reliable systems, all the way to Rossum’s CEO. We are constantly questioning and iterating on how we develop, deploy, and operate the software. We are pragmatic in choices while willing to make big bets.

Our Tech Stack:

Rossum is a highly tech-savvy product; therefore, experience or at least familiarity with the following stack is a significant advantage. This is what your team will be working with, and you will eventually touch all of it.

• Most of our services are written in Flask or FastAPI. We’re also utilizing AWS Lambdas, and internal framework where it makes sense

• For communication between components we are using RabbitMQ and REST APIs

• We’re mostly stateless, or we manage state in our platform. Where we need a database, we prefer PostgreSQL. For advanced functionality, we also operate a MongoDB cluster, and we like Redis too.

• Everything we run is deployed in Kubernetes clusters to ensure reliability and scalability. Currently, we use AWS in three regions, but we are mostly cloud agnostic.

• We operate quite a few lambda functions, our customers are able to customize the behavior of the product with just a few lines of code (Javascript or Python).

• All configuration is persisted in Git and synchronized with all environments using GitOps tooling (flux). Terraform is our tool for managing infrastructure.

• Prometheus and Grafana are used for monitoring, ELK stack for logs.

• We use GitLab to host our repositories and run CI/CD pipelines.
