What you will do

Listed below are the hard-skills that would fit well in our current team setup:

• Comfortable explaining technical concepts in a concise manner to technical and non-technical audiences

• Ability to implement backend services that will be running in AlikeAudience controlled environments or customer environments as managed or self-managed services

What you will need

In AlikeAudience, we care about you as a person more than your previous experience in a specialised role. We look for candidates based on who they are as a person, and their potential, not their previous achievements. Listed in the following is what we are looking for:

• Willing to put in the effort to learn new concepts and not being afraid of working in an unfamiliar environment

• Open to working in a small team and ready to take on meaningful work early on in your career

• Good communication skills; ability to explain concepts in understandable English

• A good team player who understands that collaboration can lead to better results than doing everything by oneself

• Self-motivated, responsible and able to handle multiple tasks concurrently

• 2-4 years of working experience is a must
