London, UK. Full time
Software craftsman required. Expertise in JavaScript and web development essential.
Could you be employee #1? We're looking for a brilliant developer to join two busy co-founders to help take the product and company to the next level.
== About you ==
You're passionate about producing beautiful, elegant code. You want to work in a company where quality counts, not just out of professional pride, but because great code makes for robust products, rapid development, and a beautiful user experience.
You've got a keen interest in security and take it into account in every piece of code you write. You graduated from a good university with a numerate degree, and have developed software in a commercial environment.
== About us ==
ONEIS solves complicated information management problems for information intensive small and medium organisations.
What does that mean? Each of our clients faces a different problem in how to manage the information in their business. Our current clients include consultancies, private health, insurance, training, and a tax information provider. Standard small business tools aren't good enough, but the large enterprise solutions are overkill and user-hostile. We work with our clients to design a customised solution built on our core information management platform, and host their data ongoing.
We launched to our first clients three years ago and have steadily built an enthusiastic user base. We're a bootstrapped company, funded entirely by revenue from our clients. With no investors, we can focus solely on producing a great product for happy clients.
ONEIS is a collaboration between myself, a developer, and my co-founder, an Information Architect. We've used her expertise to radically rethink how digital information should be managed, and our client satisfaction shows we got it right.
== About the role ==
You'll start by building server-side JavaScript plugins to implement custom features for our clients. These are quick to write, so you'll work on lots of interesting and varied projects from the start.
When you're happy with that, your responsibilities will expand. This will be a bit of everything from developing the core Platform to a spot of systems admin. You may not be familiar with the full stack yet, but you'll be keen to learn it all in a fast-paced environment.
