Front End Developer - remote

Better Proposals
Posted 2 months ago

We’re looking for a Front End Developer to join the Better Proposals product team. You’ll be responsible for coding the front end of new features and updates to the existing features and flows within the product.

Better Proposals is one of the world’s leading proposal tools, which helps businesses send web-based, high-converting business proposals, contracts and other types of documents. By sending trackable, modern documents with the ability to sign and pay online, our software helps sales representatives win more clients and get paid faster.

With 10,000+ users around the globe, we’re just getting started and we need your help.


A day in the life

You’ll start your day when you like and finish when you’ve done a good honest day’s work - that’s all. You’ll be working with our CEO, CTO and product team on designs of new features or improving existing ones. You’ll need to be the kind of person who pushes through bottlenecks and ensures work is published live. You’ll speak to our Customer Support manager from time-to-time to understand problems in the product. You’ll communicate with the marketing team to ensure the product is represented accurately.

What you'll do
  • Developing the front end of new features, as well as existing features and flows within the product
  • Making sure you, as well as all designers in the company, are doing work that is consistent with how we present the product.
  • Understanding how we build software and ensuring our ethos of simple software isn’t lost as we build new features and grow the product.
  • Communicate clearly with developers when working together
  • Weekly written updates and occasional Zoom meetings

Benefits
  • Salary dependant on skills, experience and what you can bring to the role. We use Glassdoor as a guide for your location and pay above average. Looking at a range of $35,000-$50,000 per year
  • Remote work in a global company, with a friendly and hardworking team
  • 3 weeks paid holiday + 1 week for every year (capped at 6 weeks)
  • Annual bonus based on personal and company performance

Requirements
  • Experience using Figma as a mock up tool
  • HTML/CSS/JS knowledge needs to be outstanding.
  • Proficient at collaborating using Github.
  • Ideally worked in SaaS and understand it.
  • You’ll ideally need to be able to draw elements from scratch like icons, write UI text, labels, and descriptions.
  • It is important you test and audit the work you and teammates did, work and communicate towards any further improvements to get the task published live.
  • It’s a “bring your own tools” role in that we’re not going to insist you use certain software. You will, however, have an advantage if you know your way around Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud.
  • It’s a team game - you should be willing to take feedback and help others in the team.
  • You’re a self-starter, with the ability to work on multiple projects at once and meet tight deadlines.
  • Be happy working in a 100% remote team.
  • Ideally you’ll be able to start fairly soon. If you have a notice period of longer than 30 days it will be difficult to consider you unless your application is exceptional.
