Senior frontend engineer (React & TypeScript)

Sendify is hiring a senior frontend engineer to join the team in order to help simplify logistics. Our mission is to help our customers succeed by providing an intuitive and thoughtfully designed experience for handling all of their logistics needs.

In this role, you’ll work with a new area of the product. This means taking the businesses perspective, having empathy for the customers, having respect for the design process, and being driven to find clarity amongst the fog.


About the job
We need a talented senior frontend engineer to help us develop a new feature area for our users. This means that you’ll work closely with product, design, and engineering colleagues. You’ll also be exposed directly to customers we’re helping, and the operations and sales teams we have internally within Sendify to support your work.

Your technical expertise will assist the design team with front-end decisions, and by selecting the best tools for the job, you will bring these designs to life.

During a normal week, you will:

- Produce tested, simple, and thoughtful code for Sendify’s platform.
- Take an active part in our team culture. Be open and supportive, be curious and bring new ideas, learn and build a great product together.
- Provide feedback and guidance on new solutions or changes.
- Help informally mentor and coach other engineers.
- Perform code reviews.
- Help maintain a tidy system, architecture, create tooling. Raise your voice for areas that need refactoring or work.
- Participate in technical strategy discussions.


While this description is for a senior engineer in a new product area, we do not expect anyone to come in and have all the answers on day 1. We do however need someone who has built up a strong intuition for great design, architecture, for what a great team feels like, and is able to ask great questions.

What we’re offering
Sendify has an open-minded, collaborative, and curious culture. This means being able to express new ideas, be yourself, have fun, and explore new technologies. You’ll be challenged to work with other smart people to find creative solutions to hard problems.

We’re focused on bringing people together in a low-ego environment; we don’t believe in being stuck to “a way” or that “this tech is the best”. Our environment is complicated and changing, we move faster if we keep our minds open and adjust when needed.

We also believe in helping smart people find and walk their own path. We support parallel individual contributor (IC) and management tracks, meaning that you don’t need to shift into management in order to progress. We also support sideways growth; want to go deep into backend? try being an engineering manager (EM)? think more about product management? Let’s figure it out together.

Our stack

Sendify aims to use best-in-class technology. We experiment a lot at the edges, but the core of our system remains clean and stable. Our stack is built up around TypeScript, React, Netlify, Go, K8S, AWS, MySQL, Gitlab CI/CD, Pulumi.

Benefits

- A fun, social team to do your best work with.
- Dog-friendly office 🐶
- Good insurance ✍️
- Remote work-friendly, and flexible working hours 🙌
- Health and fitness budget (friskvårsbidrag).
- Pension.




What we're looking for 👀
In order to succeed, we believe you:

- Have 5+ years professional experience.
- Have worked extensively with JavaScript and one or more modern JS UI framework.
- Have proven track record shipping tested, well-architected, and simple code.
- Are fluent in English.

︎ It’s a bonus if you:

- Have started or been employed in a product startup.
- Worked in modern React / TypeScript.
- Worked full-stack (Go), with SQL, or AWS.
- Have experience designing, instrumenting, and maintaining A/B tests.
- Have worked closely with a design team and are comfortable with Figma.
