At Quipu we are striving to
dramatically simplify the administration of companies, change the way
they do their bookkeeping and communicate with accountants. No more
paper and emails going back and forth - our core product includes an
image recognition algorhythm to read invoices and a scraper connected to
each client's banks to match transactions - so that companies can focus
on what really matters in their business. We aim to streamline
bookkeepers' workflow and improve the experience of final clients and
employees 10x.
In the Frontend we have the challenge
of visualizing these highly important movements and to make our tool
accessible for a completely tech-unsavvy public. We are a team of 24
people, all motivated to change accounting as we see the impact we can
have with our small team and an innovative solution in a huge market
where the word digitalization is still followed by raised eye brows. Are
you up for this challenge and ready to think about this product with
us?
Requirements
At
Quipu we are looking for a great Frontend Developer to improve our team
and help us keep growing our platform. We strive to automate processes
for our clients and let them focus on their business instead of doing
boring, mechanical stuff.
Top skills required are:
- Passion for coding & learning, finding the smartest solutions to each problem.
- A drive to push for great quality in everything that you do, being able to balance it with deadlines.
- Experience with JavaScript, HTTP based technologies and web frameworks.
- Being a team player, learn from others and help others learn.
-
Striving to be informed about each new thing, technique or technologies
that come out, specially if they can help our technological platform.
Our stack:
We
use Ruby on Rails in the backend, with mostly MySQL and, for some
parts, Redis as the databases. We are currently in the process of
migrating from the old-school approach of mainly rendering everything at
every request, to new small applications in React that will eventually
become one. We also use Python for a machine learning component and
React Native for our mobile applications.
What you will do:
You
will work side by side with our product and development team, including
the CTO. We are looking for a pragmatic thinker and a keen problem
solver ready to take on big challenges. Your role will range from the
development of new projects and improvements to the current product, to
internal refactors or even testing out new technologies.
The
whole development team works in 2-week sprints by following Scrum, and
although we obviously follow a product roadmap based on the company's
business needs, we strongly encourage your own initiative and ideas!
Benefits
What we offer:
- Provide you with continuous challenge and space for learning
- Participation in the technological and business decision making
- Agile tasks distribution, with daily deploys
- Flexible schedule (but should be based in sunny Barcelona)
- Broad and diverse start-up ecosystem that provides much more than a job experience
Miscellaneous:
- Ping pong championships - we have our own ping pong table at the office!
- Itnig Breakfasts every Tuesday, Yoga, Salsa & Language Classes, Summer Parties & Afterwork Beers
- Activities such as Laser tag, Poker, Table games or LAN Parties
- Conferences, events and workshops onsite
Don't miss the opportunity to contribute to our challenging project as part of a great team of developers!
