The list of your responsibilities will include, but will not be limited to:

• Work with UI/UX designers, users & product owners to understand desired application capabilities (e.g. information architecture, interactions, visual design, etc.)

• Work within an agile team to collectively design, develop, test, implement, and support end-to-end software solutions across a full-stack of development tools and technologies.

• Take the ownership over architecture qualities of front-end applications (e.g.: usability, accessibility, performance, etc.) your team builds and delivers.

• Bring a passion to remain up-to-date with the latest trend of ever-changing web front-end development.

• Have an ability to swiftly craft rough prototypes (proofs of concepts) to illustrate higher-level concepts, design ideas & solution drafts.

• Work to meet delivery commitments of feature content throughout the whole Software Delivery Lifecycle (SDLC).

• Identify and characterize technical risks throughout SDLC of your work products.

• Bachelor degree, Master or Engineering in computer science field or other relevant degree.

• Extensive knowledge of Angular 2.x (or higher)

• 5+ years working experience as a front-end JavaScript developer

• 3+ years in design and building SPA applications using a application building framework / library (Angular 1.x/2.x, React, Ember, Aurelia, Vue, etc.)

• Practical experience in building enterprise-grade, Internet-facing web applications (e.g.: security, RESTful Web API design, HTTP in-depth, test automation in the browser, i18n)

• Practical work experience with modern JavaScript development toolset (“build” tools, packaging, linting, transpilers)

• Experience working in an Agile/Scrum development process

• Ability to work well in an international and multicultural environment in a fast-growing company.

• Fluency in English required.

• Self-driven, team player, good communicator & faciliator.
