Report to
Director of Platform Engineering

Description
You’re exceptional with building application front-ends with a keen eye for UI and UX. You’re not a UI/UX designer, but you know a bad experience when you see one with ideas on how to correct them. You’re a specialist. You can work with any front-end language, not just React vs Angular. You have a public profile of personal projects you’ve worked on, simply because you love it. You’ll make magic happen with our Events app (https://appexchange.salesforce.com/listingDetail?listingId=a0N3A00000EX3qVUAT)’s attendee facing UIs, for responsive desktop/mobile and our forthcoming mobile app.

You’re someone who’ll try to do something even if it doesn’t make sense all for the sake of comparison and feedback.

Your vision will guide the direction of our company. You should be a progressive and modern thinker.

Why is our work important

Our apps provide our customers what they’re looking for with Events and Payments without being hard to set up. Most apps in our space take weeks to implement, ours take hours, and they work more flexibly, achieving significantly more functionality than our competitors.

Trajectory

IC (individual Contributor) or Management. We’re a 28 person team growing quickly. We’re at the precipice of the classic SaaS hockey stick growth chart and are now starting to scale, so those who produce will be able to define their own path. We deliver a bigger scope of your responsibilities then larger companies and your impact will be directly quantifiable to the success of the company and our customers.

Onboarding Process
You’ll work with the our platform team to learn our stack and vision over the course of many months, but will be expected to begin contributing within a few days.

Relation of work to other departments
Your prime responsibility is owning the customer-facing front-end of application stack, primarily around our Events app. You’ll work with everyone on the team in solutioning new features, testing with our success team, and will occasionally join customer calls for trickier testing and feature delivery.

What the job will bring you

Set a standard for our front-end. We’ll be building new UIs for our products, focusing on our Events UIs, across multiple front-end languages, working with our now-hiring-for UI/UX designer. You’ll have ownership over the front-end architecture, under the approval of our CTO.
