Job Description
Position:
When joining us as a Software Engineer (Front End), you'll be aligned with one of our agile product and development teams, working together with not only other engineers but also with Product Managers, Scrum Masters, Architects, System Testers, DevOps and Customer Support. Some of your responsibilities will be to:
Understand your team’s product roadmap, pursuing sound technical designs and solutions to challenging problems our users face today or upcoming market trends
Implement best practices and processes, and assist your team with eliminating technical debt
Adhere to the designs from our UX Team to ensure we produce coherent products that are a pleasure to use
Follow our agile Scrum process, working in sprints together with the rest of the team to timely deliver work that both satisfies all our user stories criteria and is of sound technical quality
Work with our tech stack and tooling which includes, but is not limited to: ReactJS, TypeScript, ES6, Jest, Webpack, Cypress, AWS, GitHub, and Jenkins CI
Use the learning and development resources we provide to continuously improve yourself
Work with colleagues and stakeholders as part of the full product development life cycle, gaining deep knowledge of our platform, and particular areas of our clients' business to help you contribute as part of an agile team
About You:
Our people are the most important part of our business, and none more so than our engineers. We are fundamentally looking for bright, enthusiastic problem solvers – people who love a challenge, constantly evaluate and question, and above all, love to ship a product that solves real problems. While these characteristics outweigh any specific technical skills, a successful candidate should be able to demonstrate some of the below:
Solid knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript, ReactJS and the related ecosystem (npm, testing-library, Jest, etc.)
Experience with implementing and shipping rich front-end applications
Familiarity with functional programming concepts and other programming paradigms
Passion for delivering elegant technical solutions that not only meet Client and Product expectations, but are also underpinned by code that is clear, concise, maintainable, and testable
Openness to working and collaborating in a multidisciplinary team, where you can work with and learn from not just other Software Engineers but also Product Managers, System Testers, UX designers, etc.
Happiness to engage in discussion with your fellow engineers to reach the best possible solutions for our technical challenges
Proactive, inquisitive, always looking for a challenge and want to constantly grow as a professional and to grow others around you
Experience with C#, the .NET ecosystem, and RDBMS platforms (such as Microsoft SQL Server) is a plus
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field plus at least 2 years' engineering experience
