Description

Skip continually looks for high performers who are excited to join our entrepreneurial team to revolutionize food ordering and the delivery industry. We are constantly picking up new challenges, experimenting and innovating our projects. We're looking for a front-end engineer with experience building high-quality applications to help evolve and scale our product.

Here you'll get to work on the customer web platform. We leverage a lot of cutting-edge tech, including React.js, Redux, GraphQL, TypeScript (Strict mode) and Node.js.

Recipe for Success

While we don’t expect you to have a background in everything we use, here are some of the things we feel are important:

• Experience in component-based frameworks/libraries (e.g. React.js, Vue.js, Angular, Svelte). While these are all great, we use React.js on our stack.
• Experience with state management and effect management systems (Redux, Redux-Saga and xState). We’re currently using Redux.
• Experience with CSS pre-processor languages (e.g. SASS/SCSS) and/or CSS-in-JS libraries.
• Experience in quality assurance and testing best practices.
• Experience building large-scale responsive and accessible web applications.
• Experience in REST principles and API consumption.
• Front-end development tools, including Webpack, Babel and Yarn.
• Build application with Internationalization and localization requirements.
• Experience with Version Control (Git) and related tools such as Github and Bitbucket.
• Experience with agile processes (continuous development, delivery and improvement).

If you have some of these skills as well it'll definitely be very useful:

• NodeJS (Servers/lambdas/scripts)
• Github Actions
• Docker
• Cypress/Playwright E2E testing
• AI Coding assistance
• TypeScript and type systems
• GraphQL
• NextJS
• Automated testing
• AWS (CloudFront/Lambda/ECS)

Skills

• Ability to deliver best patterns and practices to solutions in a fast-paced environment.
• Excellent verbal communication skills.
• Good problem solving skills.
• Experience in a fast paced agile environment.
• Attention to detail.
• Mentor team members on best practices and new technologies.
