ZOKRI | UK | React F/E Developer | Contract | Remote

ZOKRI is a new startup, currently just the 3 founders, and we are looking for an amazing React F/E developer to help us ship the first version of the web SPA in the next 2-3 months.

The two tech founders have many (many) years of writing software and building companies, but this time need help to make the app as beautiful and usable as possible.

Initially we are looking for a remote contractor, but our aim is to build up a globally distributed team of best out there, so there is possibility of a long term gig if it works for both sides.

Contact me for more details - we can show you our current state and screenshots of what we are going to launch - martin.armstrong@zokri.com

ZOKRI is helping SaaS companies accelerate their growth - using OKRs, Initiatives and SaaS Metrics. See https://zokri.com for more details

One question regarding the salary (seems similar to Spain, Portugal) - how does it compare to such "low-income" professions (e.g. in US) such as taxi driver in your country?

The lower range given here (33k) is pretty much the legal minimum for software development for an absolute beginner.

Collective agreement in English: https://www.wko.at/branchen/information-consulting/unternehm... Updated numbers for 2018 (in German): https://www.wko.at/branchen/information-consulting/unternehm...

The relevant column is presumably ST1 ("specific tasks 1"), in several categories according to experience. The given numbers are a "monthly" salary paid 14 times per year, so the absolute minimum per year is 14 * 2.273 = 31822 Euro per year. If they actually only give you 33k per year, that can only be "above Austria industry average" if the industry, on average, breaks the law. Which is quite possible.

Anyway, the collective agreement for taxi drivers (German: https://www.wko.at/service/kollektivvertrag/personenbefoerde...) is 1.235 Euro per "month", which would be 17k per year, and I cannot imagine that they are paid a lot more than the minimum in general. So overall it's at least twice of what a taxi driver would make.

Edit: It's neither specific to taxi drivers nor software developers, but Numbeo claims average monthly net salaries of 858.64 € for Lisbon and 1,781.56 € for Salzburg, so you might be mistaken about this being comparable to Portugal. https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/compare_cities.jsp?cou...

I mean, I see quite small figures in these countries and it makes me think that software engineering in general is not considered as a significantly high-paid profession in general. i.e. in my country, programmer makes 6 to 10 times or more, compared e.g. to taxi driver.
