About Fiveonefour
We believe that data is the key to maximizing human potential. It helps bridge the arts and sciences. It helps inform our decisions. It powers the most delightful experiences. Unfortunately, data is relegated to specialist roles like data engineers, data scientists, and analysts. We’re on a mission to democratize data and make it easy for ANY developer to build data-intensive experiences.
We’re experienced founders with a track record of success. We have a remote-first team, are backed by incredible investors, and are building a high-performance culture that’s flexible and works well for working parents. We are maturing as a company, and joining at this time gives you a unique opportunity to help shape the culture of the company.
A note about our job descriptions. We’ve written tons of JDs in our careers and wanted to try something new. We believe that everyone on the team deserves to have a great relationship with their manager. Our hiring managers write their job posts, choose their words intentionally, and use this as an opportunity to open up a dialogue.
The role
As the first Senior Front-end Engineer, you’ll partner with the team to build and maintain Boreal, our Moose Hosting service as well as our marketing properties. I am looking for a front-end engineer that’s comfortable working on some NodeJS TypeScript backend (NextJS). As this is still very early in the company's life, you will have opportunities to stretch all across the stack.
What To Expect From Me
I am both a player and a coach for the team of engineers. I roll up my sleeves and care a lot about my craft. I am pragmatic, I spend my innovation chips deliberately and will encourage you to do the same. I love learning and I am always eager to read the latest trends and best practices. I firmly believe that engineering is a team sport; the best technical architectures and designs come out of tight collaborations between team members. I will challenge your designs, encourage you to hone your craft, expect you to ship code to production often, and eventually expect you to coach more junior engineers as the team grows.
What To Expect From Your Peers
As the senior front-end engineer, you will collaborate closely with product and design during this exciting growth phase. While our current team includes generalists who contribute to the front end, we will look to your leadership to shape our front-end codebase, establish best practices, and implement componentization. Our team is composed of ambitious and pragmatic individuals who value each other's well-being. We embrace the energy of a startup environment, and our diverse backgrounds and experiences enrich our collaboration. Many of us are parents and appreciate the flexibility to support our families, which we extend to all team members.
As we expand, you will be joined by other talented individuals eager to tackle challenges and achieve success together.
