About the role

We are 40+ engineering team members, organised in feature-oriented, cross-functional squads. Each squad is responsible for specific features of the product, and works tightly together with high autonomy. Depending on the product area, squads are comprised of Backend and Frontend Engineers, Designers, and are always paired with a Product Manager.

We believe in listening to everyone's ideas and feedback –no matter what your role is, you get to have a say in the product and technical decisions of your squad.

Ember.js developers at Leadfeeder work on our web frontend with state of the art technologies. The Leadfeeder web frontend is structured with Ember engines and makes extensive use of addons such as ember-data, ember-concurrency, ember-cli-mirage and ember-component-css. Our strong testing culture extends to the frontend: all user flows are covered with acceptance tests, components and models are integration and unit tested.
