DebugBear is looking for an experienced JavaScript developer.
What we do
DebugBear is a site speed testing and monitoring service. We help companies make their websites load faster and improve their Google Core Web Vitals metrics.
We're a small business and you will be working directly with the technical founder. In this role you get to have an impact on all aspects of the product.
The role
As a full stack developer you will:
- Implement and maintain product features while keeping in mind user experience, implementation costs, and maintainability
- Make the product scale to a larger number of users
- Ensure the product is reliable and secure
Working in an early-stage company, you need to be able to take on a variety of tasks and complete them successfully, sometimes in the absence of established processes. You need to be mindful of customer needs to understand and challenge requirements.
Working at DebugBear
We value building a stable product that doesn't break unexpectedly, especially not outside work hours. For example, that means working with proven technologies where possible and writing automated tests.
While there is some flexibility with work hours, this is not an asynchronous role and we expect fairly consistent work hours. Frequent communication is expected.
Collaboration is mostly through Slack and GitHub, but this might change in the future as needed.
Tech stack
Here are some of the technologies we use:
- TypeScript
- React
- Express
- Postgres
- Google Cloud
- Jest, Puppeteer
- Sass CSS
Application process
- Introductory call discussing the role and your experience
- Technical interview
