Berlin, Germany ("H1B") - StorageRoom - JavaScript
We’re building a cloud-based Content Management platform that’s targeted at developers. We just received funding from prestigious VCs (unannounced).
You say Content Management sucks? That’s exactly what we think, and we see a huge opportunity to do something completely different that plays well with HTML5/JS and native mobile apps.
The initial version of our platform is already used by hundreds of customers, from major global media companies to small development agencies.
It’s now time to throw away the prototype of our API and to build a high-performance solution, from scratch. We want to bring aboard a person who will develop the new JavaScript frontend, public JS SDK and JavaScript server component with us (yes, we’re developers too!).
We’re looking for someone who already has a solid experience in writing and testing JavaScript applications and that has a good knowledge of the JavaScript ecosystem (CoffeeScript, Node, Rhino, ClojureScript) and its frameworks (Backbone, Spine etc). You should have a good Computer Science foundation and an authentic interest in working with JavaScript. Experience in functional programming languages will be considered a plus. One of the main jobs besides developing will be to involve the JS community with talks at conferences and interesting prototypes.
Interested? Please send your GitHub account and any other interesting links about you to REDACTED_EMAIL.
P.S.: The only language in the company is English and living in Berlin without any knowledge of German isn't a problem at all.
