The work spans backend, frontend, fullstack, and infrastructure engineering, with a strong lean toward senior and staff-level positions. Several roles centre on distributed systems and large-scale platform work: the Qonto backend role involves designing APIs and banking services running on Kubernetes and AWS, while the Mistral AI research engineer role focuses on maintaining training pipelines and optimising GPU clusters. Frontend work appears in roles like the Qonto frontend position, which includes leading a migration from Ember to React. AI product integration features prominently in postings from Mistral AI, including the fullstack AI engineer role building deployments for sovereign institutions. Team lead responsibilities—hiring, planning, cross-functional coordination alongside hands-on coding—appear in the Mistral AI backend team lead posting. A small number of postings cover more specialised areas such as mobile engineering and quantitative development.
These counts reflect mentions in descriptions across all postings on this page, not formal requirements. With a sample of 33 postings, the figures give a rough signal only. API design and Python appear in roughly half the postings, and Kubernetes matches Python in frequency. TypeScript and React appear at similar rates. Java, Docker, and C++ appear in a notable minority, suggesting the stack varies considerably across employers.
The employers' own advertised ranges, for individual roles at different levels — not an average and not a market rate.
Most postings on this page specify fully on-site work, making that the dominant pattern here. A smaller portion are listed as hybrid, and only two postings are described as remote. No postings have unknown work-mode information. Candidates who need flexibility should check individual listings carefully, as hybrid arrangements are not uniformly defined across employers and the extent of remote eligibility is not always elaborated beyond the label.
