Ingresso | Senior Backend Web Engineer | W6, London UK | ONSITE and flexible | https://ingresso.co.uk/

Stack: Python, Go services on Kubernetes/GKE, Objective-C legacy application on-prem, Helm, Travis/CircleCI build pipeline

We are a entertainment ticketing company connecting a large number of different suppliers (London west-end theatre, UK regional, and fast-growing attractions) to a wide distribution channel (including Ticketmaster). We do the challenging work of unifying different APIs so distributors can sell as much product as possible through our platform's unified API.

We have a startup-like environment with a small, skilled team, and are also part of a larger organisation with large market cap so we are well funded. We're looking for someone with experience delivering web apps at scale to help us scale our platform as we convert our legacy system to a microservices framework - if you love refactoring and have a strong C background as well as experience with modern web application development, we would love to hear from you! There's many hats to wear and plenty of interesting problems to work on.

In addition to a competitive salary we offer a generous pension contribution scheme, bonuses, stock options, and frequent free theatre tickets to London's west end.

You should probably fix the fact you're web server doesn't have a redirect to include www. That link just errors!


Thanks Tim, getting that fixed!

If you haven't lived in a high-visibility, group-centric culture like this, you don't understand why it's not strange for those two things to go together at all.

There is no "should" with depression and mental illness. You could well say 'you "should" feel better because it's just chemicals in your brain and what you are feeling isn't really real', right? But depression comes in all shapes and sizes and doesn't make rational sense, which is why it can't be treated that way.


The way I understood it is: "By failing my business other people will think because I am a foreigner and I failed my business most other foreigners are failures as well and I don't want that"

My point is that he shouldn't let hypotheticals like that keep him from doing what is best for him, especially if suicide is in the cards.
