At
Geckoboard, we’re helping companies all around the world make use of
their data by enabling them to easily build TV dashboards that align
their teams on the things that matter most. We have a lot of interesting
and creative work to do to shape their experiences and are looking for
curious problem solvers to help us on this journey.
As
our Senior Frontend Developer you will help shape all aspects of our
product and pick up new skills along the way to share with our team and
customers (for example, none of us knew Go or
React.js a short time ago, but now they are key parts of our stack).
Right
now you are probably an experienced Frontend Developer building and
optimising single-page applications, (with great attention to detail).
You’re passionate about working as part of a cross-functional team (of
developers, designers, QA testers and product managers) and have already
learnt from others through pair programming and peer review.
What are the team working on?
We’re doing a lot of interesting work building the UI that sits across our growing library of
integrations
and radically improving the onboarding experience for new users. We’ve
also spent six weeks on delivering Geckoboard for low power devices by
rendering react components as images (More about Geckoboard Lite:
https://medium.com/geckoboard-under-the-hood/building-geckoboard-lite-e86ca367d0ee).
We also recently launched a progressive web application to replace our
native iOS application and allow us to release this to other platforms.
We’re excited by data visualisation,
React,
Redux, CSS Modules and frontend build tools (like Webpack). As our
Senior Frontend Developer you will be able to work with these and help
guide our stack in new directions.
Our interview process typically consists of an initial phone screen, a take-home code test, and a half-day on-site interview.
