Here's to the crazy ones. The hackers. The doers. The curious geeks in a world of corporate zombies...

On top of the salary, you'll get generous stock options, performance-based bonuses, and annual profit share, as well as extensive training and mentoring, BUT…

You must be a perfectionist — you're simply too passionate about your work to call something "done" when it's not near perfect yet!

Do you remember how "Monica" from F.R.I.E.N.D.S was obsessed with the little details? Now, imagine if she became a front-end engineer somehow… Do you think this is you?

Okay, we want to hire you if you:

are an absolute expert in JavaScript, including vanilla code
have rock-solid skills in building SPAs and PWAs using React.js and redux
have experience with SSR technologies and Next.js specifically
have a good understanding of reactive programming, as well as modern trends in JS
can build mobile apps using React Native
can turn design system mockups to pixel-perfect code with attention to detail
know your HTML5 and CSS
know how to deliver a fully-responsive experience across different devices
care about loading speed and on-page SEO best practices

Extra points for:

experience with SVG animation
contributions to open source projects
UX design knowledge
a rudimentary knowledge of Python/Django
knowledge of Swiss Design and other abstract influences
being a fan of Pink Floyd

On top of that, you...

are passionate about making a difference in an early-stage startup with a kickass product
like hacking pet projects, just for fun and kudos
can work in a fully-remote environment and embrace asynchronous communication
document and test your code, and are familiar with continuous delivery
are familiar with Agile methodologies

Your typical day at DealTracker

You will be working in a small team of A-players, reporting directly to our Tech Lead and our CEO. You'll be taking the lead on the front-end side of things. We built a proof of concept using React/redux. You'll be working on turning it into a proper PWA.

So, on a typical day, you will:

build and scale new features on the front-end
improve and fix existing functionality
take care of your personal staging environment
work closely with backend, helping to define the APIs
participate in the design and architecture of new features
If you know React Native, you could also take part in building our mobile app

So, what will we build together?

DealTracker is a real-time deal aggregator that collects deals from all the major online retailers in the US and ranks them based on factors like current and historical prices across different stores, product reviews, brand reputation, etc.

It's also a social platform for curated shopping, where people can create shareable product collections in a Pinterest-like fashion. They can also follow their favorite brands and product categories for personalized deal discovery.

We didn't launch the product yet, but you can demo our old PoC here to get an idea. [NOT PUBLIC - Please, don't share it]
