ABOUT THE TEAM
We are a Hong Kong–based jewelry manufacturer building a brand-new global B2B platform from the ground up. You'll join a small, fast-paced team that designs, builds, and delivers hands-on — web and mobile frontends, APIs and batch integrations, and the customer-facing tools that keep operations running. We work with modern technology and love turning it into products people genuinely enjoy using.
We are hiring at two levels. Apply once — tell us which role interests you, or let us suggest the better fit.

Both roles
• Help build, deliver, and support our new B2B platform — web and mobile frontends serving customers worldwide
• Contribute to APIs and batch integrations across internal and external systems
• Explore the latest technology, including AI, and help turn it into products people love
Senior Software Engineer, additionally

• Help set technical direction and mentor junior engineers
Software Engineer
• Work alongside senior engineers, learn our stack hands-on, and grow quickly by shipping real work from day one
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Both roles
• A degree in any discipline — an IT-related academic background is not required
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, and the resilience to try, fail, and try again
• A real drive to keep learning, and genuine passion — for the work you do and for the things you love outside it
Senior Software Engineer
• At least 3 years of relevant software development experience
• Hands-on experience building or running a B2B platform is important to us — tell us what you built, who used it, and what you learned
• Hands-on experience with several of: Java, Python, React, Node.js, microservices, MongoDB, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS
• A solid object-oriented programming (OOP) foundation
Software Engineer
• No working experience required — fresh graduates are warmly welcome
• Any exposure to Java, Python, React, Node.js, Docker, Kubernetes, MongoDB, or AWS is a plus
• An understanding of object-oriented programming (OOP) is a plus
NICE TO HAVE
• AI knowledge, interest, or experience

WHAT MATTERS MOST
Personality and attitude count for more than any single item on this list. We're looking for someone curious, analytical, passionate, fast-learning, resilient, and driven to solve real problems — even if you're just starting out. Being a strong team player is essential.
HOW WE HIRE
A friendly chat to get to know you, a small practical exercise in the spirit of the real work so we can see how you approach a problem, and a conversation with the team about how you think. We read every application ourselves and care more about how you learn than about buzzwords on a CV.
HOW TO APPLY
Send your CV to ••••@donovans.com.hk, indicating which role you're applying for and your expected salary.
If you have a portfolio, GitHub, or something you've built or taught yourself, share it — we'd genuinely love to see it. A polished CV is not required; curiosity, passion, and evidence of learning are.
