Binder - Styles guides done right

Remote | We’re based in London

Looking for a full-stack javascript engineer to work remotely. We work with React, RxJS, Webpack, CSS Modules, TDD/BDD, Node and Babel… and more.

If you’ve got experience with those technologies, that’s good news. But we believe that a good developer transcends any particular library or framework. Here’s what we’re really looking for

1. You favour simplicity over complexity.

2. You scrutinise the things you’re asked to build and ask difficult questions.

3. You care about UX.

4. You care about good design.

5. You care about the user.

6. You can code.

7. You enjoy a good argument about naming conventions and other such things.

You’ll be joining a small team of founding designers, UXers, and developers. Why join us? I’ve no idea. We’re nice people. Get in touch and decide for yourself if you want to work with us.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Based on the account ages/activity/postings, it looks like a lack of coordination between different departments/recruiters in the company rather than being intentional. Curious how the mods will handle this.

Actually this has more to do with the referral bonuses and the speed at which postings happen on the Who is hiring thread. I think two of the postings were from individuals and one was from the recruitment team. I downvoted the duplicate posts. I work at Booking.com and often post on these threads. Stayed away this time after seeing the existing posts.

Interesting, thanks. Internal competition. :)

iOS/Rails engineer - 17hats - REMOTE

17hats is an online service designed to help tame the chaos of running a small business by combining invoicing, customer quotes, contracts, to-do lists, client contacts, bookkeeping and more into one easy-to-use app. Rather than repeat all the stuff that makes 17hats so nifty, head on over to our website and check it out: https://www.17hats.com

* Required Dev Skills (please know 2 out of the 3 below):

    iOS (obj-c/swift) 

    Ruby/Rails (our API)

    JS (Knockout, but all new stuff is React)
* Responsibilities:

- Lead by example – by writing good code, talking about good code, and then drinking beers with the team to celebrate all the good code everyone wrote

- Design and development of new product features and enhancements

- Communicate with non-engineers to define requirements and deliverables

- Know what technologies are out there in case you need to use them

- Periodically teach your co-workers all the great stuff you learned via tech talks, brown bags, blogs or open source

* About Us:

We are a small team of good-hearted folks with families, working really hard on a product that we’re very excited about. We’re committed to staying small and nimble, and we have this crazy belief that there are other good-hearted people out there willing to help us get a fair shot against the big corporate players. We hope that resonates with you.

You'll be working with people who previously worked at places like Eventbrite and Instacart, people who've contributed to Rack, and people who have founded their own startups before. We're all ambitious, but we realize the importance of being able to work from anywhere.

Every engineer on our team works remotely. That being said, we do need someone who can work California business hours (9am-6pm PST) and who is available for emergencies at night. If you live in the LA area, you are welcome to be in our cool office in Pasadena. Bonus points if you can curse in Dutch.
