Job Description

What you'll be getting up to: 

We are looking for someone to work closely with our product owners to help shape and build the future of our tools and products.

You'd spend your time developing and improving existing projects, for example:

• Building new websites and pages based on provided technical and functional specifications
• Implementing different strategies for existing products and tools based on requirements

We'd also do a ton of work together like:

• Architecting and developing new features

• Prototyping and evaluating potential implementations

You would spend a lot of time programming, brainstorming on hard problems, and prototyping different ideas. You wouldn't be just churning through tickets in the backlog — you'd be helping to design entirely new products, figuring out what exactly we're even building and why

While being a somewhat big company, we're split into small teams which means that even though we each have our areas of expertise, we all wear many hats. We're looking for a programmer, but you'd also help out with things like:

• Managing Git VCS issues and fixing bugs
• Writing and improving the documentation for the products and tools we make
• Helping customer support answer customer questions
• Troubleshooting problems during live communication with other teams

If you've ever maintained a large project, working with us carries a lot of the same responsibilities.

Here are a few recent projects you might have worked on if you were already part of the team:

• Building next version of our products from scratch with latest technologies

• Building a performance testing architecture and laying the groundwork that will be used company-wide
• Refactoring the actual production application to simplify and speed up performance without any down-time

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop websites based on technical and functional specifications provided by the client;
• Continued maintenance, development, and bug fixes for the existing web sites;
• Utilise source control tools such as Gitlab for maintaining code versioning and releases;
• Test the website on different browsers and identify any technical problems;
• Work with the team to manage, optimise and customise multiple web applications;
• Attend daily meetings to report on assigned tasks’ progress and attend fortnightly
• meetings for project planning and other meetings from time to time;
• Complete tasks & deliver projects on-time and to the highest standards;
• Contribute ideas for making the application better and easier to use.

Qualifications

• Strong front end development skills including HTML, CSS, JavaScript;
• Knowledge of Javascript frameworks like React, Angular and Nodejs
• Strong working knowledge of web services including REST, JSON, Soap, etc.;
• Knowledge and demonstrated experience with cross-browser issues.
• Familiar with web development security best practices
• Strong command of MySQL
• Ability to write and interpret technical documentation.
• Preferable two years of relevant experience
• Preferable with portfolio of projects that can be viewed online
• Good oral and written English communication skills
• Ability to work in a team and works well under pressure and deadlines
• Ability to organise and manage multiple priorities
• Independent but collaborative, driven, assertive
• Background in Agile Software Development using Scrum Methodology is preferred but not required.
• Background in Online Gaming is preferred but not required
