Full Stack JavaScript Developer

  Headquarters: United Kingdom    
URL: https://www.debugbear.com/
(Fully remote, 50%+ overlap with UK working hours required)
DebugBear is looking for an experienced JavaScript developer.

What we do
DebugBear is a site speed testing and monitoring service. We help companies make their websites load faster and improve their Google Core Web Vitals metrics.
 
We're a small business and you will be working directly with the technical founder. In this role you get to have an impact on all aspects of the product.

 
The role
 
As a full stack developer you will:
 
Implement and maintain product features while keeping in mind user experience, implementation costs, and maintainability
 
Make the product scale to a larger number of users
 
Ensure the product is reliable and secure
 
 
Working in an early-stage company, you need to be able to take on a variety of tasks and complete them successfully, sometimes in the absence of established processes. You need to be mindful of customer needs to understand and challenge requirements.

 
Working at DebugBear
 
We value building a stable product that doesn't break unexpectedly, especially not outside work hours. For example, that means working with proven technologies where possible and writing automated tests.
 
While there is some flexibility with work hours, this is not an asynchronous role and we expect fairly consistent work hours. Frequent communication is expected.
 
Collaboration is mostly through Slack and GitHub, but this might change in the future as needed.
