Whiteboards.io offers the freedom of an infinite canvas with deep integrations to empower software & project teams on their way to connecting discovery with delivery. Our goal is to help our users work as we do: smarter and more efficiently. To support all teams and their tools, we’re expanding beyond the Atlassian ecosystem, GitHub being the newest one. Powered by Appfire, our start-up culture and vibe are grounded within an established organization. Join us on our journey and experience the freedom and flexibility of working at Whiteboards!

Being part of a really cool comapny you will:

Be a part of a self-organizing, cross-functional product team and cooperate closely with other Software Engineers, UX Designers, Product Managers, Team Leader, and with other specialists like Product Marketeers or Support Engineers;
Follow the best engineering practices: automated testing, code reviews, pair programming, YBIYRI (you built it you run it);
Spend ~80% of your coding time on frontend and ~20% on backend tasks;
Share your thoughts openly and honestly on what would be the best for the customers and the business: you will be part of discussions about the future of our products and Spartez (an Appfire company);
Decide freely about your day and assignments - we do not micromanage people and we do care about work & life balance;
Be the change you seek - if you see that something can be improved, suggest how and make it happen (alone or by engaging your colleagues)!

What you need to have:

Proven record of delivery of multiple complex software development projects or products;
Hands-on experience with front-end technologies, - React, Node.js, Typescript. Whereas we appreciate some breadth, we value the depth even more!
Attention to detail, passion for UX;
Willingness to learn and use multiple technologies;
Truly engineering approach to solving problems. Good theoretical foundations of computer science(e.g. algorithms and computational complexity, OOP) are super practical in the ever-changing landscape of technologies;
Good understanding of modern Cloud architectures, and practical experience implementing them in GCP, Firebase, or Twilio;
Deep architectural understanding of web applications, including performance, quality and security aspects;
Good grasp of SQL and relational databases; familiarity with Firestore and Realtime Database is a plus;
Ability to decompose complex problems into well described, realistic to estimate tasks;
Desire and ability to mentor other team members;
Command of English at level B2 or higher.
