Frontend Developer (ReactJS)

We’re a small company, with a big vision...creating something that really matters.

We’re working on a solution that makes it nearly effortless for anyone to make better environmental decisions - across pretty much anything they do online. It’s different from anything else on the market, and our MVP testing has us optimistic that we might be onto something special (impact + business case).

We’re looking for Frontend Software Developers (React) to help us build out our core product experience - across our target use cases, customer touch points, and community engagement mechanisms. We’re looking for people who are comfortable striking the right balance between smart design, and the need for rapidly responding to customer & community feedback.

WHAT YOU’LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR:

• Implementing & improving upon our product targets and designs for our web solution and browser extensions. Seeing what we have, understanding our goals, and finding ways to make it better.
• Rapidly iterating & prototyping promising ideas. Until we’ve fully validated our value & growth assumptions, we need to quickly test new ideas, and follow where the data takes us. Production quality is the step after.
• Expanding our use cases & customer touchpoints, such that we help as many people as possible to make better environmental decisions, across whatever they want to do online (use cases, browsers, devices).
• Working on a day-to-day basis with our BE developers, designer, and broader team to deliver simplified, compelling user experiences that create measurable user value, move key metrics, bring about real change, and position us to scale into the future.

TARGET TOOL SETS & EXPERIENCE

• React experience, with browser extension experience being ideal.
• Experience porting designs from Zeplin to code.
• Ideally, Webpack / Babel experience.
• Ideally, Docker experience

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR:

• Smart, passionate people, who are driven to help find solutions to climate change (or at least, interested in tough intellectual challenges).
• Effective communicators, with good remote collaboration skills, as our working culture allows for flexibility, and a portion of the team is distributed outside of Taiwan (globally).
• Able to run lean, remain disciplined in thought and execution, and continuously strive for improvement.
• Creative and self-motivated when finding solutions to uncertain and difficult challenges.
• Somebody who makes everybody around them better. Somebody who people want to work with. Somebody who does what they say they’ll do.
• Ultimately, somebody who is looking to tackle a tough challenge, to grow their own personal responsibility (NOT be told what to do), and who is able and trusted to move quickly.

This position will be an opportunity and a challenge to operate with freedom, to personally grow, and to leverage your own creativity - in a rapidly growing company that’s trying to change the world.

• Good English proficiency, and experience working in multi-cultural / international environments.
• At least 2-3 years of experience in production software development (readable, maintainable, scalable), using the tool sets outlined above (work, academic).
• Masters degree in computer science (or related field) is helpful, but not required.
• Experience working in a startup is helpful, but not required.
• Experience working on community-powered solutions is helpful, but not required.

1. 30 minute call to assess mutual fit. Info gathering for both sides
2. Technical interview, consisting of a discussion & a small coding exercise (no theoretical whiteboard sessions). Ideally in-person.
