FreshBooks is seeking skilledfull stack developers who have experience with web application frameworks and JavaScript frameworks as well as client-side performance optimization. With us, you will help build brand new features and update existing ones in our consumer-facing cloud accounting application. We build a product that helps our users earn their living and we’re proud of that. If you’re committed to great work and great teamwork, and are constantly looking for ways to improve the systems you’re responsible for, we’re dying to meet you.
We are versatile
Most of our software is written in Python, and JavaScript. We also use tools and technologies like Ember.js, RabbitMQ, Redis, Elasticsearch, Puppet, and Jenkins CI. We believe in using the best tool for the job (while maintaining a slight bias toward the tools the team knows the best).While we value experience with the tools above, we know that smart developers are great learners, too.
We Collaborate
<spanWe work in an open environment; no cubicles or offices. We closely follow Agile Scrum and rely on collaboration for success. We also collaborate across the office; regular hackoffs are a part of our culture. Developers join forces with coworkers across the company to pitch and prototype projects that improve our product, our culture, or are just plain fun.</span
We are agile
Agile development methodology has many different meanings but to us it is doing what works best for the customer. Our developers don’t just translate ideas into realities; they work with our product teams to generate ideas. We use Scrum for collaboration and release super-awesome-game-changing features once a week to our clients. We’re pragmatic. We have strong opinions but we are never afraid to try to new things.
We Ship
Shipping is at the forefront of our engineering practice. We rely on continuous integration and Test Driven Development (TDD) to ensure our product is always shippable.
We value our people
We recognize and reward ingenious work. We all have real lives, and respect their balance. We all have a voice that is heard throughout the company. We always make time for fun, and have one of the most unique, employee-led cultures out there. Join the FreshBooks choir or a class in the gym, organize a gaming night, teach a dev lunch and learn, or use a paid volunteer day to share your skills with the community. Salaries are competitive and compensation packages include stake in the company.
Interested?
We’re looking for people who are interested in getting in on the ground floor of an incredible opportunity to build amazing software and transform the lives of small business owners all over the world.
