Unsplash | Montreal, Quebec, Canada | Front-End Software Developer | Full-time, Onsite preferred
Unsplash is one of the world’s largest photography communities, dedicated to providing stunningly beautiful images released under Creative Commons Zero. Over 1 billion photos are viewed every month and our community is fueled by contributors who offer their photos freely for anyone to use, remixing and re-sharing in a way that has never been seen before. Unsplash photos have been used by millions of creators, from companies like Apple, to writers like Deepak Chopra.
We’re applying the principles of the open source movement to photography and what we’re doing isn’t just having a big impact on the photography industry, but the internet as a whole. We see it as an exciting chance to reinvent a major industry run by the old guard and covered in red tape. Unsplash started on Hacker News 3 years ago, and it’s been an amazing ride ever since. In 2016 we grew by over 250%, and we’re looking forward to beating that number in 2017.
Our stack is ES6 React/Redux, rendered on a Node server, and powered by a Rails API. Our team is small; right now I’m one of two developers on the JS side, and we’re looking to add a third. The ideal candidate should be very experienced with Javascript. Experience with React/Redux or contributing to open-source is a plus. Ideally, we’re looking to hire onsite in Montréal, Quebec, but we’re willing to be flexible for the perfect applicant. We can help with relocation costs.
