Kbrw works on complex IS architectures for its key account customers. Its R&D is based on a bottom-up approach, which means the company develops solutions for its customers and then puts them "on the shelf".
🤖 Kbrw uses the Elixir (back-end) and React (front-end) languages to develop its software:
- A modern reinterpretation of Erland offering greater user-friendliness.
- High performance and availability: easily manage major additions to stocks or hundreds of thousands of orders at the same time.
- Resilience: easily distribute a highly resilient application, which is very useful for managing the degree of importance of our applications
- Metaprogramming: Elixir makes it easy to develop frameworks
🎓 Kbrw invests in initial training for all developers. As there are currently few Elixir developers in the market, Kbrw is looking for resourceful, curious developers who are keen to get outside their comfort zone. One month's training before being assigned to a project to learn the functional language the company uses, Elixir.

We apply three key principles:
- Control over the full stack– we prefer rebuilding functionality in-house rather than losing control over external tools and frameworks.
- Prioritising performance– every technological element we use is designed to provide the best performance possible.
- Less is more– we only put in place what is needed for our customer's solution and for our platform and other in-house tools and frameworks.
We currently manage a cloud of over 3,000 hosted containers on more than 300 servers spread between two OVH data centres, processing hundreds of millions of HTTP requests every day.
