Polarsteps | Senior iOS and/or backend engineer | Amsterdam, NL | ONSITE (we can sponsor your visa & help you with relocation)

We're a young startup on a mission to radically change the way travelers plan, track, and remember their adventures. We've built the best travel tracker out there, and we're embarking on our next journey: making your trip planning a breeze. To get a feel of what we're building, you can download the Polarsteps app here: https://www.polarsteps.com/app (we've been featured in the WWDC 2017 Keynote and multiple times in the App Store).

We’re a fully funded, enthusiastic and multi-faceted team of 6 with a passion for travel, design and code, and you'll be working closely with us building a super awesome travel app that people genuinely love.

The challenge lying ahead of us is huge, but if we push the right buttons we honestly believe we'll forever transform the way people travel.

=== Our ideal candidate ===

You’re a seasoned, professional and pragmatic developer with a feel for UI/UX. You love to travel and believe in metrics and stats as a means to understand our users' behaviour as much as you care about their explicit feedback. In addition to this, if you have iOS experience and successfully released one or more apps in the App Store, or if you have experience with large-scale backend platforms, then you’re the rainbow unicorn we’ve been looking for.

=== Benefits, perks, the cool stuff... ===

Does this description apply to you? Then check out these additional perks (specially the last one ), and contact me!

- Stock options

- Competitive salary

- Work/life balance

- Relocation assistance

- The possibility to be part of a fun, international team

- Awesome office in the center of Amsterdam, one of the most cosmopolitan and beautiful cities in the world

- 30 vacation days (25 ‘regular’ days + 5 Teleporter™ days, see below)

We believe that regardless of stock options and salary, what will really make you richer are your travel experiences. That is why once per year you’ll have the chance to use our Teleporter™: with the push of a button, the Teleporter™ will go through all of the locations logged by our users and select a random one that is at least 1.000km away from Amsterdam. This is where your next adventure will take place! The flight is on us (plus the 5 Teleporter™ days, naturally). Try it out here: https://www.polarsteps.com/teleporter

If all of this sounds appealing to you, holla at me: max@polarsteps.com

P.S. As for our tech stack, we’re constantly aiming for the best possible setup based on our needs as we scale (we take over&under engineering mishaps very seriously!) - we’re hosted in Heroku, use Amazon S3 for media storage, python (Flask) in the backend/API, AngularJS in the frontend, and we have fully native apps in iOS and Android. We have single-command build&deploy tasks for production and staging, and we do automated testing with protractor on the web, XCTest on iOS and UI Automator on Android.

Head of Digital Product / Designer/Developer / Web Developers / Full Stack Developers / News Algorithm Developers / Programmatic Advertising Engineers / Back End Software Engineers | NewsNow.co.uk | London, UK or 100% remote (UK residents only) | Full-time, permanent

We are a top ten UK media publisher, with a website loved by millions: a technology company at heart with industry-leading success metrics propelled by a highly experienced multi-disciplinary engineering team that can afford to run lean. Which means today, we offer all the excitement and agility of a start-up, but with the stability and benefits of an established business — we’re still a company where everyone gets to make a massive impact!

Our mission: to democratise and disrupt the market for news. Today, we have major plans for growth, both here in the UK and abroad, and to create even more social capital out of what has been an extremely successful platform: through increased editorial direction, a focus on credible independent journalism, as well as through computational approaches to identifying the best news to show our users

We currently have these opportunities:

- As a /Head of Digital Product/, you’ll take over from our CEO in keeping all our development efforts incredibly well organised and delivering the vision. You’ll grasp our strategic vision, consult with stakeholders to prioritise and specify desired developments, and co-ordinate the work of our agile development team to balance our editorial, development and commercial goals and deliver them with maximum efficiency.

- As a /(Fully Remote) Designer/Developer/, you’ll be responsible for designing and developing all aspects of UI and brand, including a new homepage format. You will be working with Adobe Creative Suite, JavaScript, CSS3, SASS, HTML5, Responsive Web Design, progressive enhancement and feature detection.

- As a /(Fully Remote) Web Developer/, you’ll write the logic that drives the UI, and integrate new UI with back-end data. You’ll also work on a wide array of other UI/UX, SEO, and content integration challenges.

- As a /(Fully Remote) Full Stack Developer/, you’ll be expected to contribute authoritatively towards product development projects throughout the entire software stack: from database and infrastructure installation and configuration, through writing business logic and prototyping presentation.

- As a /(Fully Remote) News Algorithm Developer/, you’ll develop automated curation algorithms that will produce the content for a new homepage format.

- As a /(Fully Remote) Programmatic Advertising Engineer/, you’ll use JS (ES5, ES6) and NodeJS to develop our unique bespoke programmatic advertising technologies, helping maintain our role as the leading UK publisher in ad tech.

- As a /(Fully Remote) Back End Software Engineer/, your projects will largely be server-side. You will bring a sophisticated approach to problem solving, finding ways to achieve objectives while addressing scalability challenges and security concerns.

All positions are available at our head office in London Euston/Kings Cross, and developer roles are also available 100% remote (UK residents only).

If you like the sound of this, we’d love to hear from you, so get in touch! http://www.NewsNow.co.uk/careers/
