Senior Frontend PWA Engineer Job

Pay: 75,000€ per year with great benefits
Remote: UTC-6 → UTC+3 (NY to Madagascar)

Hey, I’m Nathan, a co-founder of Shareup and currently the “web team lead” for Shareup 😅 We are a team of 3 today: Adam is a designer and frontend dev, and Anthony is primarily Apple-focused, but he’s also writing quite a lot of TypeScript these days too.

We are looking for the right person to join our nascent web team and help get our alpha version of Shareup ready for people to use and fall in love with.

Are you super into browsers and web standards? Do you care about progressive enhancement? Do you love TypeScript? Are you committed to making web apps work offline? Do you care about every kb transmitted over the wire? Are you comfortable building with Vanilla JavaScript while being happy to use frameworks like React when needed? Are you excited about helping others by crafting great web experiences with the newest tech and standards?

I want to talk to you 💪

Checkout my recent blog post where I detail our current Web Tech Stack 👀 to get a feel for where we are at today. Yes, we are using deno, and we are loving it. We have some code to extract and publish as OSS as soon as we get time. I can send you some examples if you are interested, just email the above address.

We’ve put up a teaser page at new.space which will soon be our first production PWA launch. And we’ve created a list resources for building PWAs at pwaresources.dev to help anyone begin learning more about PWAs 💪

About Shareup

Shareup is the easiest, fastest way to securely share anything with anyone. We help teams collect, organize, and make sense of the myriad of files, links, and services they use to get their work done everyday. Sharing is currently too difficult and stressful! We are obsessed with relieving that stress and anxiety.

We are a design-led company. We define design as “how it works.” This includes everyone having an overview of the tech fundamentals, understanding the full experience flow for the customer, and contributing to the beautiful details of everything we make—from UIs to code to icons to all the assets and interfaces our customers see and touch.

We are, at our core, a group of people passionate about building great products for our customers. We think those products require a strong design vision, solid engineering focused on performance and stability, and reacting to customer feedback. More than that, we believe every employee at Shareup has a part to play in making sure we always adhere to those principles.

We are a fully remote team.

You will:

  • Work alongside the founding team to build, test, and maintain a progressive web app and its services with a very modern tech stack.

  • Contribute to the growth of the company through consistently shipping updates while continually receiving and addressing customer feedback.

  • You are optimistic and able to operate in ambiguous or changing situations.
