RateIt | REMOTE - (Australia or similar TZ) | Full-Time | https://www.rateitapp.com

RateIt is an Australian led company which is focused on helping businesses (retail, hospitality, medical, etc.) consistently deliver great customer experiences every day.

We're Hiring For:

1) A product focused full-stack web developer to join our small (28 people) but hardworking and passionate team. We find the people who fit best at RateIt often come from a startup background where they've had to wear many hats and have been involved with bringing new products to market end-to-end.

We’re a modern development team – our tech stack today is a micro-services oriented architecture using C# + SQL Server on the back-end (Azure/Service Bus/Storage/Functions), with Angular/Backbone/Marionette on the front-end. However, if you love to learn new things and come from a background with Ruby, Python, Go, etc. we'd still love to talk to you. Rather than just hiring for expertise in a particular stack, we believe that great developers demonstrate their skill through design, UX, thoughtful architectural decisions, user empathy, outstanding technical communication, and overall product understanding. In other words, we're looking for someone who sees themselves as more than just a cog in the wheel.

2) QA engineer. You'll be the first QA employee at RateIt so we're looking for someone who can step in and own software quality end-to-end. Your job will be to write and maintain automated test scripts and develop testing plans and execute them against new features and bug fixes. You'll prioritize and manage bugs and overall help improve our development/testing process to prevent problems before they happen.

Sound like a good fit? Get in touch with me at neil@rateitapp.com

Work on what you want, within reason. Help define the company and take ownership of your chosen field.

Registered in Hong Kong, we are a small, mainland China based, international team in the mid prototyping phase, approaching prep-for-manufacturing on a novel series of distributed food service locations supporting automated food preparation and retail. You can look at them as scaled down factories, robotic chefs or one large distributed just-in-time custom food manufacturing system including the associated logistics network. Fresh ingredients and personalized customer orders in, tasty cooked food out.

We are in perfect unison with the largest trends in the sector (convenience, personalization, mobile ordering, commodification of last mile delivery), are already oversubscribed for our next investment round and have recently doubled down by moving to Shenzhen. We have great experience with China, less in manufacturing, lots in complex systems and emerging technology, and multiple successful exits globally.

Mandarin speakers well regarded, but Chinese knowledge is not required. Clear written technical communication in English is mandatory. Skills and experience first, qualifications a distant second. We respect execution.

Email in profile, please include 'Candidate: ' in subject. No recruiters.
