We are always looking for bright minds to join us, regardless of their experience or tech stack they use. We operate in Bratislava, Košice, Prague, Brno, and Budapest. Working remotely is an option too.
Computer programs are the most complex things that humans make. We believe that these three essential skills are the foundation of good engineering.
Strong analytical thinking
A sound engineer can reason about the code without executing it. Writing a quality code equals the ability to prove its correctness and effectiveness beforehand.
Strong intuition
Requirements, APIs, and whole ecosystems change without a warning. Decisions need to be made with incomplete information. Best engineers are able to navigate the uncertain world of engineering with their well trained ‘hunches’.
Simplicity mindset
Sometimes the best abstraction is no abstraction, the best library is the one you don’t use, and the best test one you don’t need to write. Great engineers know that and spend more time using their brains than using their fingers.
Software engineer salary range at Vacuumlabs: 1,600 – 6,400 €.

Intern X
With limited programming experience, you require close supervision. You are eager to learn and don’t give up easily.
JuniorX
You are comfortable working with standard toolchain, research information independently, and start developing a basic taste for a good code. You develop simple features under the guidance of your more experienced colleagues.
1,600 EUR–2,000 EUR
+ 15% EQUITY (AFTER 1 YEAR)
MidX
You can develop most of the features independently, coach less experienced colleagues, and lead small projects occasionally.
2,250 EUR–2,800 EUR
+ 15% EQUITY (AFTER 1 YEAR)
SeniorX
You require no supervision implementing even the hard parts of the software. You routinely lead junior colleagues and actively participate in design & code reviews. You always look at the code through the optics of its business impacts and can communicate them to the customer. You proactively research new trends and prepare talks for your colleagues and the general audience. We trust you to lead teams of 3–4 people.

Team LeadX
You are capable of leading the biggest of projects. You think of costs, benefits, and risks of any decision, even a bad one. You discuss, design and write documentation before writing a single line of code. If a proper software architecture doesn’t pull its weight, you advocate for a ‘quick and simple’ solution.
