Description
We're looking for an engineer to join OneYearNoBeer (it's a behaviour change, welltech product, not an AA type product and yes, you are allowed to still drink if you so choose! ) The team is permanently remote, so location agnostic. You are going to be crucial in the next stage of the journey and we can't wait to work with you!
Our mission is to change people's relationship with alcohol by supporting their alcohol-free journey through offering access to 28, 90 & 365 AF Alcohol Free challenges, amazing global community, podcasts, blogs, specialised coaching and more. We use positive psychology to help our members transform their lives and discover the best versions of themselves. With 70K+ members in more than 100 countries, we're a dynamic start-up at a scaling-up stage. We’re around 20 people, and looking for great talent to help us make an extraordinary impact on people's lives!
We have product fit and now need to build the engineering capability in the business to allow us to build a better user experience for our customers; they love our product, but want it to do more for them. We are starting to develop a progressive web application to meet our customers’ needs.
We are a remote working company based around the UK so we welcome job applications from all European time zones.
Requirements
About You:
You will be someone excited by the opportunity to develop a greenfield web app and to build the team that will deliver on our ambitious plans for growth over the next 12 months.
You must be comfortable working closely with our product team and be able to advise, design and implement the technical solutions to meet the long term needs in our product roadmap.
We are looking for a full-stack developer, but we care a bit more about the backend side and architecture knowledge.
The skills you are likely to have:
You will have more than 3 years of on-the-job software engineering experience building web apps.
You will have strong backend experience, DevOps, building Amazon Cloud Infrastructure (or similar) and SQL.
You know how to design the data model and architecture for building complex features.
We are using TypeScript, NodeJS and React, although we are open to other languages on the backend; we need at least a solid knowledge of Javascript and experience in other typed languages.
Knowledge of React, or at least another frontend framework is important.
You will ideally have some exposure to mobile app development, but that isn’t a requirement.
Understand what it takes to build product features, supported by analytics and experiments.
Empathy for end-users, and understand the value of exceptional user interface design.
And who are you likely to be?
You are able to examine requirements that aren’t 100% clear.
You care about quality and results, not just checking “Done” on the assigned tasks.
You constantly seek to learn and improve yourself, the team, and the product.
You have the ability to thrive in a fast moving, and fast changing environment but know how to maintain a sustainable pace.
You have experience with agile delivery and development practices.
You have shown that you can work in areas outside of your usual areas of expertise.
You are not intimidated by large challenges where answers are unclear and the approach fluid.
