Yepstr is built on the vision of giving all youths a chance. In our app teenagers can find their first jobs in their neighborhood (babysitting, dog-minding etc.). As our Yeps (Young Entrepreneurs) level up they can charge higher hourly rates and eventually accept jobs for companies. We make sure the process is fun and safe. Now there’s a chance to join the core team as a React Native developer!
As a React developer at Yepstr you are at the very front of the line. Being part of a tight dev team you are entirely responsible for your own code and your own work. But with great responsibility comes great power.
You are a highly technical person who is always curious about learning new things. At Yepstr you will have the opportunity to try out every aspect of working in a small fast-paced team. You don’t shy away from expressing leadership - whether it be technical leadership, building a great culture or setting the bar high.
You have at least one year of professional React Native experience and you know most of the best practices of the framework. You know the difference between a "beautiful" solution and a "quick-and-dirty" one.
It's a big plus if you also have experience in backend and noSQL databases.
Location
Yepstr HQ is located in Stockholm, but you don't necessarily have to. We have a well developed remote culture and we value skills, drive and thirst for knowledge over proximity to the office. The only thing we do require is that you live in a neighbouring timezone. If you are reading this and do live in Sweden, we have a beautiful office in Gamla Stan that we'd love for you to come visit. If you don't live in Sweden and decide to join Yepstr we will fly you to the office a couple times a year to make sure you are a part of our awesome team. We even offer a nice relocation package (complete with accomodations the first few months) for developers looking to join us here in Stockholm.

1+ years of React Native experience
TypeScript (we do full stack TypeScript)
Keen on creating a superb end user experience and writing beautiful code
"Nice-to-have" skills:
Web experience
Backend experience
MongoDB experience

Your future team
The team that's out to change the world - and give all youths a chance in the labor market - is currently 30 passionate full-time people. The product team that you'll be spending the majority of your time consists of battle scarred software engineers with years of experiences as well as self taught developers with a crazy passion for coding.
What we offer you
We offer a competitive salary based on your previous experience and merits.
You are, and will be treated as, an owner of Yepstr from Day 1. Complete freedom - work whenever and wherever you are the most productive. We honestly don’t care. As long as you take care of our company as well as we do.
We offer a modern office in central Stockholm (Gamla Stan) right next to the water. The office is ours (not a typical shared office space), meaning that we have full control over what we want it to be like.
Furthermore, we can guarantee that you will work with some of the smartest, most ambitious people in the startup sector in Sweden. We are all focused on the same goal – making Yepstr the best thing that’s come out of Sweden since flatpacked furniture and fish roe in a tube (Kaviar).
