Do you want to combine programming and sustainability? We are a startup who have developed an online learning and analytics platform with simple and short learning modules introducing topics within the field of sustainability, designed to be shared and completed by an entire organisation. Our aim is to create positive impact through inclusion and education of the many rather than the few - we think that sustainability is achieved together!
This role offers the opportunity to explore and apply best practices as well as preferred technologies and libraries. You will work together with the developer team leader in a variety of tasks, mainly focused on developing user interface components.
The coronavirus is of course affecting our startup this spring. You will therefore therefore be working closely together with our team online on platforms such as Slack and Skype. Your location, being in Denmark or elsewhere does therefore not matter. We promise to do everything in our power to make it a fun and enlightening experience, with daily standup meetings, social calls, continuous communication and a well planned introduction week.
We have launched our first online learning package for corporations and have run a pilot project with a client. You will therefore be joining us at a very interesting phase - where we are updating our product, strategizing and getting ready for the customers.
Your responsibilities and tasks:
Developing new user-facing features using React.js
Building reusable components and front-end libraries for future use
Translating designs and wireframes into high quality code
Optimizing components for maximum performance across a vast array of web-capable devices and browsers
About you
You are a dedicated and motivated person with communication skills in English. You have a thorough understanding of React.js and its core principles, as well as familiarity with RESTful APIs and code versioning tools (Git). You like working in a fast-paced environment and you are not afraid to voice your opinion or question the status quo. You are able to work independently and enjoy an environment that trusts your skills and expertise - at the same time you value to be part of a team where we help each other when needed. In addition, you are not afraid to be the owner of a project, take the lead and be the main expert within your field of expertise.
What we offer
Joining our team gives you the opportunity to test out your skills where there is no overhead - giving you a lot of stuff to credit in your portfolio and recognition for your work. We also promise an environment where social and fun meets ambitious drive as we believe it is easier to be productive if you are also having a good time (unfortunately a bit limited due to the coronavirus - but online fun!). You will get the full on entrepreneurial experience and you get to use your knowledge and skills to create actual content and make a real change. If you are interested in entrepreneurship, you will also join meetings with various other startups, workshops and more.
