Who We are looking for
We are looking for a senior frontend engineer/consultant to work on projects for our consulting clients. We expect experience with JavaScript frameworks and related technologies as well as the web platform in general. While you'll be working with Svelte and SvelteKit, we don't necessarily expect previous experience with the framework but an interest and willingness to work with it. We appreciate writing maintainable, tested code and are looking forward to your application if you share this appreciation with us.
The ideal candidate will have experience working closely with product managers and designers and has made decisions that have directly improved a product for its users. We are looking for a candidate who can take a leading role in steering a project towards a successful release.

Must-Have
Bonus
We're a team of open-minded developers who value collaboration, empathetic working relationships and well-crafted code. Beyond a supportive team culture and a relaxed work atmosphere, we enable you to take part in modern projects for international clients ranging from small startups to big enterprises. We work closely with our clients and expect direct communication across the entire project team.
We also offer the opportunity to travel internationally - either to visit clients on-site for a limited time or to attend tech conferences (If you enjoy speaking or you're interested to learning that skill, that's awesome! We'll support you in finding mentoring support either through one of our experienced team members or any other external support that you find useful).
Apart from working on client projects we also maintain a bunch of open source libraries and tools on which you're invited to work on as well. We reserve 1 day of the week for such work or work on writing blog posts, recording videos or preparing conference talks.
