We are looking for a great frontenddeveloper (js+css) to scale The Dodo team. That’s a posting for outside the USA, only remote.
Some background about our team and you:
We don’t like bureaucracy. You are allowed to discuss any issue with any from the team including CEO
The tasks you would work on may be quick and simple or very long and complex.
It’s highly encouraged to show initiative and suggest new ideas. We understand that business goals come first but we try to keep our code clean
Your biggest responsibility as a developer is communication.
You care about how your work and attitude affects those around you. I meanreallycare. If you hurt someone, it hurts you. Everything you do runs through this filter.
Everyone knows that when you take on a task whether it’s huge and scary or tiny and boring, you’re going to see it through to the best of your ability.
You are humble enough to bend to the will of the frameworks, technologies, constraints, andpeopleyou work with when doing so won’t have a materially negative impact. In other words, you can play by someone else’s rules when that’s the easiest and/or best thing to do.
You make pragmatic (often boring) technology choices at work and you play in your free time. You don’t build science projects just because you are smart enough to build them.
You are confident enough that you don’t have to prove to anyone what a great developer you are, and therefore…
You don’t mind being the one that looks bad when you deserve it. You make mistakes sometimes, because you’re human, but rather than dwell on them you choose to fix and then learn from them.
You love to teach and learn from your co-workers.
We offer paid vacation, paid sick days and local holidays in your country
You have flexible working hours when it’s most comfortable for you but a few hours overlapping with NYC is required.
We support only major browsers versions (IE9 and higher)
You are accustomed to web optimizations for mobiles
You can receive an initial direction, ask questions and resolve the issue without 100% tech instructions from the rest of the team
An interest in animal-related topics and audiences is a plus.
In this role you will be working with The Dodo’s product, social, video and editorial teams to help grow and advance our site for our ambitious plans. The role will include:
Ensure our many types of content and articles look their best in every scenario (particularly mobile) and are optimized for page speed and sharing
Implementing robust a/b testing strategies for article displays, share functions, newsletter acquisition and our other calls to action
Helping conceive and develop strategies for acquiring user-generated photos, video, and their distribution
Shaping and improving the user experience across the site
Integrating revenue strategies including native advertising
Please send your resume todeveloper@rebelmouse.com, along with a code sample and brief explanation of your code.
