Senior Front-end Developer

At SpotQA (Full-time), in Lisbon, Portugal

Expires at: 2019-08-30

QA & Testing is often seen as an unexciting though necessary aspect of the software development process.

We're here to change that.

Here at SpotQA we're working hard to develop exciting new technologies, harnessing the power of machine learning and combining this with extensive domain expertise to enable testing to be performed fully autonomously. Something akin to self-driving cars of the testing world!

We know this is no easy feat, but nothing worth doing ever is. If you're excited and inspired by the prospect of working with a team of highly educated, expert engineers from around the world to build ground-breaking, and dare we say game-changing, applications to make testing easier, more efficient and autonomous, then we'd like to talk with you.

At SpotQA you'll have the freedom to make decisions quickly and execute them, to work collaboratively with colleagues in other countries (our product team is based in UK and Portugal, and so advanced written and spoken English is a must), and you'll be able to apply your degree (or equivalent) in computer science or software engineering to build a robust and scalable enterprise product to allow organisations to test their software faster and more effectively than ever possible before.

Main requirements

You'll blend your exceptional Front-End engineering skills with your passion for building an intuitive product, writing code and solving problems to support our engineering team in developing a research-lead application.

Engineering at SpotQA is a multifaceted role, so whilst we absolutely insist on top-notch Javscript (ES6+/TypeScript) skills, you should also bring a wealth of experience with building modern intuitive user interfaces, be a leader at heart (self-driven and passionate about taking an active role) and enjoy working in a full-stack engineering capacity.

Bonus points if you are experienced in advanced testing techniques such as mocking/stubbing, have extensive full-stack engineering experience, demonstrate you care about clean code and interfaces, and if you have previous experience with automating browsers (e.g. chrome debugging protocol).

We know that as engineers you'll have a mix of different skills, technologies and experiences, so instead of a long boring list of 'skills' or technologies we want people to have, we thought sharing details of our tech stack would be more interesting to you.

Our Tech Stack:

Vue / VueX for Frontend and Chrome extension

Languages: Java 11, Typescript / Javascript (ES6+) / Node.js, Python

Java services (distributed architecture)

PostgreSQL for relational database

Consul for discovery

AWS (ECS, S3, CloudFront, ALB, Lambda, etc.)

Prometheus for metric monitoring

ELK for logging

Terraform for infrastructure management

Github for source control

CircleCI for CI / CD

Your favourite technology that can help solve challenges

Nice to have

The following characteristics need to resonate with you:

A CODER WITH AN EYE FOR DESIGN - Code and test technical solutions working closely with our UI / UX designer and development teams

A QUALITY AMBASSADOR - You passionately care about applying best practices and adhering to coding, performance and usability standards

A TEAM LEADER - You are self-driven and want to take an active role to help lead front end directions of SpotQA

Perks

We take great pride in what we do; we work hard, but we have fun doing it! We know that we need to invest in our people. We're a startup culture that provides our team with great SpotQA Perks such as health insurance, a generous holiday entitlement which increases with length of service. We also offer sabbatical opportunities for employees with a minimum of 4 years' continuous service, and you even get an extra day off work on your birthday!
