Full-Stack Developer

At Spidergap/AirManual, we're:

Fueled by the passion and exceptional talent of a successful start-up Hungry to amaze our customers and grow the business Always looking to grow as individuals and a team AND Focused on doing it all without unnecessary stress, and with a healthy work-life balance If you're a software developer who moves quickly and values code quality, wants to grow by working in a small and experienced team, and loves helping real customers to achieve their goals... then read on! What we do We're a SaaS business with two products: Spidergap and AirManual. You'll be working primarily on Spidergap, with opportunities to contribute to both products.

Spidergap

With Spidergap, our goal is to make it easy for organizations to support the personal development of their employees. We do this by providing a platform for employees to get feedback, plan personal development, and take action. We've been the top-rated 360° Feedback tool since 2017, and are used in 134+ countries by thousands of organizations including Samsung, 3M, Sony, the NHS, the European Commission, Breville, Konica Minolta and Philips. We've recently kicked off an ambitious plan to expand our product offering, as we look to support employees with all aspects of personal development. This includes a revamp of our product working in the latest technologies.

AirManual

We created AirManual in 2020 with the goal of helping other businesses to scale up, without constant stress. We provide tools for documenting and automating processes, working together in teams, and reviewing the health of the entire business. We're now supporting over 100 businesses, including big names such as Asahi Beer and with particular traction in the Accountancy market. As with Spidergap, we consistently get exceptionally positive reviews. We're currently expanding the AirManual product to support teams with wider challenges that cause stress in small businesses, such as managing the day-to-day issues that occur in teams.

Job Requirements

We're looking for someone who's a great fit for our company values, and who can bring the technical talent needed in this specific role. Do you share our values? We're looking for people who share our values:

• Focus on impact: We know our growth is dependent on increasing the value we deliver to customers. We focus our energy on improvements that will make a real difference, with a desired outcome made clear up-front. We expect everyone to understand why they are working on a particular activity or objective, being clear on how it will benefit the business and our customers.
• Be proactive and dependable: Everyone can solve problems and remove barriers to growth — both personally and for the company. We are quick to raise issues and ideas, and to recommend next steps. We make it easier for others to feel they can depend on us by being proactive in our communication and action.
• Pay attention to detail: We believe the quality of everything we do is a competitive advantage. We expect high attention-to-detail, whether it's in how we write an email, review our analytics, or design the site. We delight in getting the details right, even in internal documents. High attention to detail isn't something you turn on and off — it's an attitude.
• Always look to improve: We survive and grow by constantly looking for opportunities to improve our solutions, our processes and ourselves. We own our mistakes, using them as an opportunity to learn what changes we should make to processes and tools. We expect our people to proactively look for opportunities to develop and improve our own performance.
• Enjoy the journey: We consider our health and families to be more important than work. We ensure no-one feels that they are frequently required to work excessive hours. We support each other in overcoming problems and achieving work and life goals. We're positive and enthusiastic — helping everyone feel energized to take us to the next level. We don't pin our happiness on the attainment of a particular end goal — we delight in each step along the way.
• We don't just ‘say' these are our values. We use them all the time — to recruit the right people, manage individual performance, recognize good practice, and make decisions.

Is the role right for you?

A large part of the work will be developing and supporting new functionality using TypeScript/NodeJS/React. We follow "clean" code principles, agile processes and continuous integration tools to efficiently take features from concept to roll-out, and to continuously optimize our processes. Your attention to detail will help us to amaze our customers, and to grow our services and codebase in a robust and maintainable way.

• Ensure progress, issues and ideas are communicated clearly to the right people
• Help us to deliver outstanding customer support.

Tech stack (Spidergap):

Tools:

• GitHub
• Slack
• Codeship
• Dropbox Paper
• GMail

Location

• This is a 100% remote job — you are responsible for having an effective work environment
