  • Understand the needs of our clients, and come up with efficient and innovative approach to translate them to features and enhancements to the platform
  • Keep bringing the latest and greatest innovation and technology stack from open source community to our products 

You’ll need to have:

  • Excellent problem solving and communication skills, and the ability to thrive in a highly collaborative and dynamic work environment
  • 3+ years experience building comprehensive, scalable, and extensible client-side apps with JavaScript (ES2015+)/TypeScript, Front End Development frameworks/tools, such as React, Angular, Vue, Webpack, Babel etc.
  • 3+ years experience working with Node.js and Python, including server application, frameworks, and CLI tools
