SumUp - Berlin, Germany - Front-End Web Developer (m/f)

------------

Key responsibilities

Expertise in Angular.js, our framework of choice, is a huge plus, but we're also interested in your history with other javascript frameworks such as Ember, Backbone, or Knockout. You are fluent in Javascript, not just jQuery, comfortable with modern front-end development tools like Grunt and Sass, and you are proficient (dare we say, pedantic) with Git. Your eye for UX and usability are also essential to succeed in this role. Experience with at least one server-side language, especially Ruby, demonstrates that you are the kind of flexible and well-rounded developer we are looking for.

What we expect from you

You care about performance, clean code, and enjoy experimenting with different approaches to a technical problem. And of course, you know your way around Linux and have either a Computer Science education or understand the equivalent fundamentals. You love to work as a reliable part in a dedicated, high-performance team. Your excellent communication and written skills in English will help you collaborate with team members from a wide range of countries and cultures. You love what you do and strive for improvement in all areas of your life – whether at work or in your free time. You are excited and motivated by a good challenge.

What you can expect from us

An amazing working environment at the beautiful riverside in Kreuzberg, Berlin – the heart of the most vibrant city in Europe. Short decision-making channels in a technologically demanding, international and motivating environment with flat hierarchies. Challenging tasks and responsibilities and a wide scope for action. This full-time job, now.

If you’re interested in joining us, please send a copy of your CV and/or a link to your Github to careers@sumup.com. We look forward to hearing from you!

Hi!

This caught my interest, and I sent of an e-mail to you on Sunday. I understand that people may be busy catching up on e-mails from the holidays and everything, but it's now Thursday and I would have expected at least an acknowledgement of receiving my e-mail by now. :)

Maybe the mail has gotten lost somewhere?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Are you an experienced Haskeller talking from a position of knowledge or just a mindless naysayer? I don't mean this as an appeal to authority or ad hominem argument, by the way. There's no substance in your comment, so I'm more trying to understand the process of coming to your conclusion there. As someone who has only studied HTML, CSS, and Haskell, I have no perspective myself about the learning curve issues in th…

"Mindless" is quite possibly too harsh. Someone might have less knowledge than "an experienced Haskeller" and still have given it consideration and be operating still from some knowledge. While I (clearly) disagree with the conclusion the parent commenter has drawn, conclusions can be wrong without the reasoning being "mindless".

I wasn't saying the poster was mindless, I was asking if they made their comment mindlessly. I don't yet know anything to make a conclusion about whether they were or weren't mindless in making that comment.
