About Geoblink
We’re a fast growing startup that has already raised close to
$8 million in investment from leading venture capital firms, and have been named by Bloomberg as one of
50 most promising startups in the world
to look out for. Our goal is to revolutionise the world of Location
Intelligence and the way businesses think about, and act upon location
intelligence data.
At Geoblink we are proud to say that we use the latest technologies to
find awesome solutions to real world problems businesses face when
trying to expand. We leverage GIS technologies and Big Data to create a
beautiful map-based user interface that not only provides lots of
awesome statistics but also a great user experience.
About The CORE Team
Currently we are a team of 4 who have worked super hard to
build robust systems using an SOA approach that allows us to perform
multiple deployments per day. We ❤️ monitoring, pull requests,
continuous deployment, automated testing and Cachopo.
We’ve built everything using Node.js, Angular, Vue.js and PostgreSQL,
although our architecture is still very much language-agnostic. We want
to maintain the philosophy of using the right tool not sticking to the
status quo. In general we like to move fast but with emphasis on the
design of our architecture so that it’s simple and scalable. Our
mother’s would say that we write clean, high-quality, modular code to
produce great software that solves the needs of our clients.
About The Job
Although we have called the position Frontend Developer, as
the whole stack is in JS, you can do some backend from time to time if
you want to broaden your skills. We like people who like to get stuck
in! On a day-to-day basis you could be doing anything from writing
components (it's components all the way down) to creating awesome
graphs, or persisting user’s session...it is trickier than it sounds! As
our product is a pure SPA web application you won't just be creating
webforms. Should you join our team you would be using BEM and SASS so
that all of our CSS code is reusable and has no global collisions. 😉
Who We Are Looking For
Someone smart, humble and motivated to build an awesome
product with us that our users will absolutely love. It would also be
great to have someone with a love for Javascript and a ideally 3 years
of experience as a Developer, and who can easily handle complex async
patterns without race conditions and understands why solving a problem
with a setTimeout is a really bad idea. 🤕 If you have worked in a SaaS
Startup before then you get even more kudos points from us!
Some Other Things What Would Be Nice To See
If you can, without a doubt say that your code is always
clean, can be read like a book and at a macro level you split the code
into independent components with clear and orthogonal responsibilities
then we would love to hear from you.
- You understand and like CSS. You can explain Flexbox to a kid and you know five ways to center text in a div.
- You
are a curious and driven person. You might not know how a == 1
&& a == 2 can be true but you are keen on learning why.
- You are fluent in English.
Perks of the job
We have something called the “zero-policy” which means there
are no restrictions on vacation days, office hours, working from home
days, etc. We believe everyone here is a “mini-CEO”, and should have the
opportunity to make their own decisions about their work schedule.
Everyone at Geoblink is passionate about their job, whether it be
increasing businesses ROI or building complex data systems. People join
Geoblink not just for the flexibility that we offer but because we have
worked hard to foster a great collaborative environment filled with
plenty of opportunity to have a real impact in the business and
collaborate with some off the best minds in the industry.
- Flexible work schedule or ability to work from home whenever you want.
- Opportunities
to learn and grow in your professional career quickly. We are open to
use new technologies when they have a positive impact.
- Blameless environment. Whenever we screw up, we try to understand what failed in the process in order to improve it.
- Unlimited coffee, tea, coke to keep you going.
- Chillout space with ping-pong, table football, draft beer, etc.
- Lots of space for you to work in peace so you can produce your best work.
- Awesome offices in the heart of Chamberí.
- And much much more!
