Your responsibilities
As a Backend Developer at Unloc, you will play a crucial role in further developing our Google Cloud-based platform. Your responsibilities will include system architecture, database modeling, and security assessments. You will also have the opportunity to facilitate our customers in building their own solutions on top of our APIs.

With a focus on scaling, security, user-friendliness, performance, and cost considerations, you will contribute to building a platform with endless possibilities that serves customers across various industries.
What’s the thing with Unloc?
Unloc
Unloc is about opening doors with mobile keys, and we have a unique approach that sets us apart from others in the industry. Unlike our competitors who often start with creating locks and then develop the app and software later, we don’t have any hardware we call our own. Our strategy is to integrate our software with existing hardware providers.
We are "API first" and encourage customers to integrate Unloc seamlessly into their products. One great product built on top of the Unloc Platform is "OBOS key". Through “Obos Key” housing cooperative residents can enjoy the convenience of mobile keys, managed inside OBOS’s own software.
A part of our ecosystem is the Unloc Control Center. For customers that don’t want to integrate, the web interface enables key management directly in the browser.The Unloc Doorbell feature is another innovation in progress, enabling visitors to call on residents by scanning a QR code outside the gates, and then letting the resident remote open the door . Additionally, we have a trial with Oda too.
You have the key; Open new doors; Better together
