Careers

Senior Backend Web Developer - London

What we are looking for

Our ticketing platform consists of:

• an API (exclusively powering Amazon’s ticketing business tickets.amazon.co.uk)
• ticketing websites (eg www.fromtheboxoffice.com and www.disneytickets.co.uk)

The main challenges relevant to this role:

• We aim to make the two products above the best in market. You will work on them and recommend improvements based on your experience with other APIs etc.
• We are in the process of migrating from a monolithic architecture to a microservices architecture. It is important you have experience of a modern services-based architecture running at scale.
• We still have a large legacy Objective-C code base which needs to be actively developed to ensure we move fast. We need someone who is prepared to get stuck in to whatever is needed to get the job done.
• You need knowledge of Python (we use this for new some services and all websites), and preferably experience with a modern C-based language (some new services are written in Go and the majority of code is written in Objective-C).

You will report to the CTO and will have responsibility for architecting and developing new services and products. The position involves interesting challenges including proposing and building internal APIs, ensuring high transactional throughput, and simplifying the system to prepare our current platform for client growth.

We expect you to recommend improvements to our architecture, and to offer solutions using modern tools and development practices. You will need to be able to work closely with others in the development team, product management, and others in the business.

Must Have

• Experience architecting and building backend applications, end to end
• Ability to write in Python (backend and Django) and Go (we will consider experience in similar languages).
• Experience with modern technologies / platforms and architectures
• Experience delivering high-scale low latency applications
• Strong database and SQL knowledge, and knowledge of new datastores (Redis, Memcache etc)
• Strong drive to create the best possible product
• Willingness to get stuck in to whatever is needed and not limit yourself to just the new stuff
• Work well in a team - contribute ideas, listen to others, help junior devs

Nice To Have

• DevOps experience
• Experience with Git and Continuous Integration environments
• Experience in startup environments and agile-like development

Who we are

Ingresso is a London-based ticketing startup. We have done the work to connect to a large number of ticketing system APIs, allowing us to transact directly on the venue’s system. This ensures our platform has live access to the same pool of tickets that the venue sells, last minute selling, and minimal manual work for the venue and ticket seller. We are profitable, well-backed, and growing fast.

Location

London, W6. Please only apply if you are able to meet for interview, have a permanent UK work permit, and can work on-site.

QA Engineer - London

What we are looking for

Our ticketing platform consists of:

• an API (exclusively powering Amazon’s ticketing business tickets.amazon.co.uk)
• ticketing websites (eg www.fromtheboxoffice.com and www.disneytickets.co.uk)

We are looking for a QA Engineer to help us improve the quality of these products.

The role will initially be focussed on manual testing, primarily of our ticketing websites. Over time we would like you to build up a suite of automated tests to reduce the manual testing, making the role suited to a manual tester wanting to break into automation. It can also suit someone who eventually would like to transition into full-time development. We would prefer someone with a technical background and programming knowledge. You will be analytical and will work with the team to diagnose complex problems.

You will report to the CTO. Since you will not have a QA line manager it is important that you can solve problems on your own and enjoy taking responsibility. You will be expected to gain a strong understanding of our products, which over time will open up additional responsibilities.

Reponsibilities

• Exploratory testing
• Manual testing, but replace over time with a suite of automated tests
• Write automated tests using Selenium and Python
• Perform a set of daily tests and system checks
• Push for quality, file bug fixes and follow up
• Point of contact for internal and external clients
