Job description

Online interview
At StuDocu, our mission is to empower everyone to excel at their studies by providing the best tools to study more efficiently. StuDocu is the world’s leading community for university students. Every month we help more than 15+ million university students to get smarter, faster. After rapid and profitable growth in the Netherlands, we are now taking the rest of the world by storm fuelled by a further investment of 50 million USD.

We are looking for a talented addition to our team who is a wizard with JavaScript and has ample experience with modern JS frameworks. You will be working with our designers and back-end developers to create responsive pages that provide our users with the best possible experience. Your hunger for technology is only matched by your motivation to solve problems fast, efficiently, and with a keen eye for design. Joining us now gives you the opportunity to be one of our team leaders in the future.

For now, StuDocu adopted a flexible remote-first policy, but we still require our 50+ employees to be located in or near Amsterdam in the Netherlands. We encourage our employees to visit the office once every other week to build relationships and socialize while abiding by the safety rules.

We are supporting our new colleagues in the relocation process, so you won't have to be concerned about the administration or costs of plane tickets. If you would like to learn more about relocation to Amsterdam you can check out articles about tax benefits (30% ruling) and why this city is called the biggest tech-hub in Europe or "silicon canals of Europe".

Why you'll love it here:

  • You will be helping to build a product that aids many millions of students worldwide to excel in their courses.
  • We are using the latest technologies and updating the older ones whenever possible.
  • Flexible, ambitious, and eager to learn team, bringing your own ideas to the table is more than welcome
  • You will be working closely with PMs and UI/UX designers.
  • Your own workspace including hardware of your choosing.
  • A free healthy lunch and unhealthy snacks every day when in the office.
  • An awesome office in the centre of Amsterdam with a huge garden, right next to the canals.

Requirements:

  • Javascript expert with at least 3 years of professional experience.
  • Solid experience with React.
  • Expert understanding of core front-end web technologies (JavaScript, HTML, CSS).
  • Ability to write high-performance, reusable code.
  • Solid English communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • Bonus points if you have experience with Elasticsearch, A/B testing, AWS Cloud Infrastructure, Mixpanel, Google Analytics, UI design, or SEO.

What our process looks like:

  • First, there is a short introductory call with our recruiter to get to know you better.
  • Then, a second call with StuDocu's CTO to touch base and tell you more about the future of our Tech teams and products.
  • If that goes well, you will receive a coding assignment followed by a technical interview with your future team leader as a last step of the recruitment process.

We're looking forward to your application!
