We’re looking for a generally nice and smart person to join our development team in Berlin.
You and your role
- You’re a developer at heart.
- You have a proven record of creating modern web UIs with JavaScript and CSS. Ideally, you already know Ember.js, because that’s what we use at Acrolinx.
- You choose the developing tools and computer environment that you’re most comfortable with.
- You engage with your team in discussions.
- You can follow discussions in German and participate in English.
- You’re someone who enjoys sharing knowledge with teammates, and
- You’re not afraid of asking for help.
- You should have some experience with tools like NPM, Git, SASS, and Jenkins, not necessarily all of them. You speak Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, or some other fancy language? Cool, we’re sure you’ll get a chance to apply your skills.
Your team and our product
You’ll join an international team of friendly, dynamic people in Berlin who are passionate about their jobs. You can expect:
- A flat, informal hierarchy and quick decision-making processes.
- Support in getting up to speed.
- Teammates of all ages and backgrounds.
- We strongly encourage diversity in our team and share a respectful and open mindset. Some of us speak at conferences, organize meetups, write about programming, or contribute to open-source projects.
Chances are, you’ve read some text today that Acrolinx software helped to shape.
The core of our product is a linguistic engine, which analyzes written text—not just for spelling and grammar but also for good style and consistency. Acrolinx does this for English, German, French, Swedish, Japanese, and Chinese (with Portuguese and Spanish up next). This combination makes us unique worldwide. Just take a look at our list of happy customers, which include Google, Facebook, Microsoft, IBM, and Adobe. We also have customers of comparable size and impact in other industries such as the healthcare, manufacturing, and automotive industries.
