We are looking for an experienced Senior Backend Engineer to join our Toggl Hire Engineering Team and help us shape the future of hiring.
You’ll be part of a small, fast-moving team building a modern applicant tracking system that puts skills and structured workflows at the center of the hiring process — making it faster, fairer, and more efficient for teams around the world.
We’re at an exciting stage: with solid foundations and growing customer traction, we’re now focused on refining our product and scaling what works. It’s a great moment to join if you’re looking to have real impact — not just by shipping code, but by helping shape the direction of the product and how we build it.

That means no more resumes or cover letters, no more endless hours screening through applications, no more interpreting past roles into current experience, no more bias and gut feeling, but informed decisions based on demonstrated skill.
P.s. We have recently been named one of the best remote companies to work at. 😉
We are a fully remote team, with 19 people working from 13 different countries around Europe. We are highly skilled, highly motivated, and most importantly, a fun, friendly bunch.

Your main responsibilities will be:
