[Vancouver] Senior Front-End Developer at Thinkific

[leonardofaria]

NEW YEAR NEW JOB NEW COUNTRY

Descrição da vaga - Job description

Are you an experienced Front End Engineer looking for new challenges? Do you get excited about designing user experiences with consideration for performance and accessibility standards? Does the idea of joining a rapidly growing tech company excite you? If this sounds like you, read on!

As a Senior Front End Engineer, you’ll work closely with our product managers, designers, QA and other engineers to improve our existing product and explore alternatives for new features. You must be an expert at soliciting, receiving and synthesizing feedback. We have a highly engaged company that cares deeply about our customers— they will have a valid voice of reason in what you do.

Some of your typical responsibilities might look like:

• Deliver high-quality, consistent code based on user stories and prototypes
• Spec and plan out new features with our Product Managers, Designers, QA and Lead Software Engineers
• Triage and fix bugs in our existing codebase
• Code review the code of your fellow engineers
• Work in migrations of existing code to React
• Participate in knowledge sharing activities with colleagues and provide mentorship for others

Here are a few other hints that you might be the person we’re looking for (you match up with a number of these):

• You believe that better solutions are achieved via collaboration rather than independently
• You are driven to continually improve by investing time in learning about new technologies or working on your own projects
• “Organized, with attention to detail” doesn’t even begin to describe you. You’ll have a lot of responsibility and also autonomy—no one will be looking over your shoulder to be sure you’ve got it right! A keen eye for detail is key in everything you do—quality over quantity is the name of the game

This is an incredible role for the right candidate. We can’t wait to meet you!

• Our office is stocked with snacks, coffee, and the occasional Friday beer and cider to keep you fuelled
• We're dog-friendly and have many furry friends sitting nearby, ready to be cuddled
• We get together often for fun company events (we’ve flown to California, hosted family BBQs, conquered The Chief, gone rock climbing and put our heads together to tackle creative challenges at our Hackathons)
• We have an amazing existing team of talented engineers, marketers, designers, customer champions, and other tech industry pros that want to work with you

Thinkific welcomes all applicants regardless of race, gender, orientation, sexual identity, economic class, ability, disability, age, religious beliefs or disbeliefs, or status. We’re proud to be an inclusive company with values grounded in equality and ethics, where we embrace diversity. We welcome you!

Obrigatórios - Must haves:

• You have strong technical and practical understanding of Web technologies in general
• You have experience developing SPA using the latest JavaScript APIs, language features and frameworks/libraries like React, Angular and Vue
• You have proficiency with CSS processors such as PostCSS, Sass, or Less and build tools such as Webpack
• You have the ability to implement pixel-perfect designs while maintaining stylistic consistency
• You have experience writing tests using testing frameworks
