Our team consists of about 40developers and designers located around the US and Canada. This is a remote, full-time position. Due to historical travel requirements, we are seeking candidates in the US or Canada who are willing and able to travel in the future once business travel resumes post COVID. Travel averages approximately 3-5 days every 10-12 weeks.

TL;DR A good short read for interested candidates is our blog postHello Potential Bitovian.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

We are looking for highly qualified individuals with the following (in order of priority):

  • 4+ years professional experience developing single page applications
  • A solid background in Modern Front End Development, including JavaScript frameworks
  • Experience in React
  • Experience with state management patterns, functional components with hooks, and functional testing
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills who are comfortable interacting with clients
  • A good understanding of Computer Science (CS degree, or equivalent knowledge is required)

We are looking for a candidate who has strong React knowledge and production experience on top of a solid JavaScript background. The interview process will focus on both JavaScript and React understanding. While this role will typically work on React projects with our clients, there is a chance team members will have the opportunity to work on other frameworks as well.

We welcome diversity and non-traditional paths into the developer profession, and advocate strongly for hiring the right person as opposed to the right combination of tech keywords.

THE JOB:

You'll work with clients to create applications, discussing and designing architectures, reviewing code, and researching new front-end technologies.

You'll have the opportunity to shape a small and growing company by applying your talent and passion to the Angular and JavaScript communities in your own way.
