Read on if you are a lead or senior full-stack JS developer who likes the freedom to work the way you work best. If you love keeping yourself sharp by working focused on solving problems with code and also find it natural to share your knowledge with your team. If you find pride in seeing others motivated and thriving with your help.
At resOS we are looking for a lead developer with at least 5 years of full-stack JavaScript development experience to lead the development of our SaaS solution used by thousands of restaurants and guests around the world.
Besides working hands-on coding, you will be responsible for the quality, testing, and deployment done by the whole development team, by implementing and enforcing coding standards, reviewing your team's code, and working closely with them to find the right solutions - with both quality and development time top-of-mind.
resOS was founded 5 years ago, has grown month-to-month ever since, and is not your normal SaaS company. We like to be a bit boring, keep things super simple, and double down on what we know works. As a place of work, we value trust and individual freedom as the cornerstones of running an efficient company. We are a small motivated team spanning 7 nationalities, all working fully remote with time to also enjoy life AFK.
The resOS team is currently: 3 developers, 2 in online marketing, 5 in customer support, 0 in sales (on purpose), plus 2 very hands-on (and one less hands-on) founders/managers.
We currently run 2-week sprints and have daily stand-ups, but we are always open to changes if you would like to try a different routine. We value a strong and efficient feedback loop with our customers and our brilliant support team. We always try to develop and launch fast, keeping the first version of every new feature to a minimum.
We expect that you
- Have a strong background in JavaScript-based development with a minimum of 5 years experience with Node, React, and MongoDB, with Meteor and Material-UI experience being a plus
- Can handle the responsibility of and continuously improve: code quality, security, testing, deployment, monitoring, scaling, and performance
- Can listen to and work with your team to find the best solutions, while using your own experience in a motivational way and knowing when to just set the path (also when something goes wrong and the heat is one)
- Are open to input from everyone and not afraid to say when you don’t understand something, are in over your head, or made a mistake (we only see that as a strength!)
- Prioritize reliability and ease-of-use above always using the latest shiny new thing, while off cause keeping up-to-speed on what could help us improve
- Understand that features have to be launched (fast) to bring value to the business
- Find it exciting to help find and hire more people for your team
We offer
- A high degree of freedom, responsibility, and room to grow, with the support of experienced SaaS entrepreneurs
- Work fully remote and/or get a seat in a local office community of your choice
- The hardware you prefer
- Competitive salary
- A yearly company get-together, somewhere in the world
- With the right talent and results, the possibility of promotion to CTO within 1-2 years, including employee responsibilities etc.
We hope that the right candidate can start either 1st. January or 1st. February 2024. We’ll have ongoing conversations with the candidates as we get applications.
