About Shippio
About the position
We created our product 3 years ago and realised last year that it was not aligned with the business strategy anymore. Thus last summer, we took the decision to rebuild it from scratch. We used this opportunity to move our FE stack from Vue.js to React.js as the team was eager to learn. We currently have 2 web-apps and will soon have a 3rd one, each with different user stories and challenges.
- Develop web applications using React.js
- Product quality improvement through code review and teamwork
- Critical analysis
- Achieve service compliance, stability, ease of use, and flexibility for continuous improvement
Requirements
- Located in Japan
- 2+ years of experience in web application development
- Challenger, making small changes having huge impacts
- Able to work smoothly in a multicultural environment
- Good intra and inter-team communication skills
