TL;DR: If you want to write F# and TypeScript while working with cool people on a fast growing business, shoot me an e-mail!

We are a fast-growing FinTech startup with a team built out of seasoned people, both on the operational side and on the technical side. We are looking for a smart and motivated addition to our team in Berlin. The role is full-stack but we don't see a specific preference for either front- or backend as a downside.

You will work within an agile process, in a fast-moving but structured environment. You will have a high degree of autonomy and be expected to provide working solutions, taking responsibility from the conceptual phase up to after the delivery. You will have architectural and technical freedom, and we believe in using the best tool for the job (TypeScript & F# are examples).

We work with pull requests, do code review for every feature, we have a dedicated QA team and we try to automate things as much as possible. We do continuous integration, and believe in keeping a high-quality codebase. We love tests and TDD. In general, we strive to work according to best practices.

Here's what you bring to the table:

– Fluency in JavaScript both in frontend and backend.

– Experience with Node.js, and frontend frameworks such as React or equivalent.

– Experience with TypeScript or similarly typed languages. All new web code is written in TypeScript and old code is being progressively converted. We use F# in production and the financial services are written in it, and run on AWS.

– Strong awareness of the interplay between JavaScript and HTML & CSS, and familiarity with Single-Page Applications. Ideally, you have developed internal systems or Web Applications for complex business domains before.

– Strong communication skills with the ability to lead team meetings and find creative solutions to complex problems. You enjoy driving continuous improvement and innovation.

– Eagerness to learn new things. We don't believe in chasing fads, but we're not scared of learning new techniques when they're needed.

––––––––

Here's what we bring to the table:

– Competitive remuneration package, rewarded for the success of the business (equity).

– Learning and career development with weekly team teach-ins, as well as “extra-curricular” development: We make available a budget of 2% of your yearly wages which you can use at your disposal on training/workshops/learning, as long as it's business-related :-)

– Beautiful office in the heart of Berlin (Hackescher Markt).

– Choose your own equipment.

– Standard Berlin perks of social events, meet ups and, of course, snacks and free cold beer in the fridge.

Personal note: I've been working here for almost one year and I feel fulfilled and happy. This opening is to work with me on my team and I wouldn't post this on HN if I didn't feel it was a great opportunity.

If this all sounds interesting, send me an e-mail at adelgado1313@gmail.com, ideally with your CV and whatever else you'd like to show us, and let's set up a quick call or a coffee – whatever you prefer :-)

We will sponsor work visas for candidates who need sponsorship in order to be eligible to work in Europe.
