Hey there, Alf here from tech 👋 I'm the Tech Team Lead here at Hobbii responsible for the daily management of developer squads. Our team is growing like crazy these days and we are looking for a talented and ambitious Frontend Developer to come help us take our main website to the next level amongst other exciting things.

So if you're eager to build the best ecommerce experience ever and using modern practices and tools such as Vue, and NuxtJS? Then please continue reading 🤓

We are aiming to rewrite our ecommerce stack from a traditional monolith-like setup to using tools such as a service oriented architecture and Jamstack. We are looking for someone who can contribute with some great ideas and challenge the status quo on the way we do things today. We strive to spend time on the things that matter and eliminating repetitive tasks in order to build things to last.

In our Tech department, we encourage everyone to have the chance to learn new things and make mistakes on the way to achieve great things. We'd love if you want to spend time digging in to some new technology, take a course or read a book you think could be useful to enhance your learning and deepen your knowledge about things that interest you.

Aim for the sky

We recently won the Børsen Gazelle 2020 award for the fastest growing company in Denmark, which is a proof of all the amazing and ambitious people we have at Hobbii. So generally, building something from scratch should excite you rather than terrify you... But don't worry, you won't be doing this alone; in the past year, we welcomed more than 190 people to our team from various backgrounds such as Bonnier, Pleo, GoMore and Google. We have plenty of ideas of how we should grow in the future and we are looking for more talented people to help us with this.
