What we are looking for:

We are seeking an intellectually curious frontend engineer to help us build the future of GovTech using the latest frontend stacks. Our main stack consists of ReactJs, Redux, and ES2015+ as well as functional JavaScript libraries such as RamdaJS and Sanctuary. We believe that functional programming improves developer experience and productivity, increases code testability, and reduces bugs.

Our frontend engineering team collaborates closely with designers and our product team to create user interfaces for both public-facing and internal web apps. Don’t have experience with functional programming in JavaScript? If you love to learn and want to improve your programming skill set, we’d still love to hear from you, so drop us a line!

  • Contribute to the implementation of development best practices, including design and code reviews, unit tests and test automation
  • Aid in the development of a culture of outside-of-the-box thinking, exploration, innovation, and problem-solving within the team
  • Work closely and collaboratively with a small, multi-disciplined agile team
  • Help make CityBase an emerging leader in GovTech

Qualifications:

  • Experience with the ReactJS Redux ecosystem
  • Knowledge of HTML, JS, and CSS
  • Desire to make exceptional user experiences and very performant web apps
  • Eagerness to learn new programming concepts, frameworks, and languages

Bonus Points for:

  • Experience with CSS-in-JS libraries, such as styled components
  • Previous work with GraphQL and REST APIs
  • Exposure to functional programming concepts
  • Familiarity with Elixir and Phoenix or Ruby on Rails

Benefits:

  • Ability to adjust schedule around core hours to accommodate a preference for earlier or later start and end times
  • Flexibility to work from home sometimes.
  • Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, 401(k) (currently no match)
  • Flexible Spending Account, Dependent Flexible Spending Account, Pre-tax Commuter Program, company-paid short-term and long-term disability and life insurance
  • Unlimited and encouraged PTO
  • Paid parental leave
  • A multitude of snacks and beverages
