Desired Candidate Profile
About the Role
At Bridge, we favour t-shaped contributors, folks who dont limit themselves to one narrow area of expertise - but this role is definitely all about bringing the front-end web development muscle to our cross-functional delivery teams. Youll work alongside full-stack developers and technically minded QAs to deliver new functionality to existing apps and to build our next generation of web applications, as part of our ever expanding portfolio. And since we are forward looking, next generation of web applications means rigorously architected single-page web applications and progressive web-applications that consume microservices and treat testing and continuous delivery as first-class citizens.
This role reports to one of our software development leads.
What You Will Do
- Work with product designers to flesh out design concepts and build interactive prototypes
- Work as part of a cross-functional delivery team to deliver world-class user experiences in challenging network environments - think lots of need for offline-first.
- Write lots and lots of JavaScript. Or TypeScript. But probably not CoffeeScript or Dart. Sorry.
- Contribute to and lead decisions about the right frameworks and libraries to use.
- Craft all the appropriate CSS (well, SASS or LESS, of course), knowing that creating maintainable stylesheets means more than good class names (but that, too)
- Add a bit of sizzle and spice to the user experience you love making sure it all renders pixel perfect!
- Implement appropriate web app build tooling, meaning live servers for development, minification and obfuscation for production you get the idea.
- Don't forget writing tests. You will definitely be writing automated tests.
Required Candidate profile
What You Should Have- 4+ years of experience developing enterprise scale Single-Page Apps (SPAs) or progressive web apps (PWAs) using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, etc.
- Significant professional experience with at least one modern JavaScript framework (AngularJS, Ember, React, Vue.js, etc.) - ideally two or three. And opinions about the strengths and weaknesses of each.
- Considerable ability to be determined and adamant about markup quality.
- A belief that Agile and UI development can coexist happily.
- An understanding of RESTful APIs - and comfort pushing server-side developer to build them the way you want.
- git (or a different DVCS) is a part of your daily coding. Frequent commits and pushes are your mantra.
- The ability to work well as part of a team within aggressive deadlines and minimal supervision.
- The flexibility to respond to the changing needs of the business.
- The ability to prioritise and carry out multiple tasks, while also caring about limiting WIP.
- A detailed doer You have a track record of getting things done. Youre organized and responsive. You take ownership of every idea you touch and execute it to a fine level of detail, setting targets, engaging others, and doing whatever it takes to get the job done. You can multi-task dozens of such projects at once and never lose sight of the details. Likely, you have some experience in a start-up or other rapid-growth company
- A creative problem-solver Growing any business from scratch comes with massive and constant challenges. On top of that, Bridge works in often fragile, sometimes volatile low-resource communities and with complex government systems. You need to be flexible and ready to get everything done effectively, quickly, and affordably with the materials at hand
- A relentless advocate The children we serve and teachers we empower never leave your mind. You know them, get them, have shared a meal with them (or would be happy to in the future). You would never shrink back from shaking a parents hand or picking up a crying child, no matter what the person was wearing or looked like. Every decision you make considers their benefit, experience, and value
- A malleable learner You believe you can always do better. You welcome constructive criticism and provide it freely to others. You know you only get better tomorrow when others point out where youve missed things or failed today
- A data-driven decision-maker When making decisions, you dont rely your intuition alone. You collect data, you analyze it and make decisions with clear justifications
- A curious investigator You ask why a lot. You dont just take what you see and accept it. You wonder why it is that way, and are aware that the world we see is created by human choices and actions and it could be different. You wonder, and see the world as wonderful even when you want to change a part of it that is unjust
