What is positive about the opportunities

Working at Porterbuddy you will really get the opportunity to make an impact and design modern day solutions. Additionally, you will be impacting the technologies being used. You will certainly be able to put your mark on things and for the front-end position you will also be free to do some back-end and UX work if desirable. We are heavily upscaling and you will be part of what we hope will be an incredible journey to make smart and green solutions, or shall we say; revolutionise home delivery processes. Last, but not least; we naturally pay competitive packages to all our high calibre staff.

Senior/Lead Front-End Developer

In this position you will be the lead front-end developer within a small and agile environment. You will be working with the newest technology and own the platform from a front-end perspective. Perhaps even better; you will work in an environment with a short life cycle of transactions, thus giving you the opportunity to experiment as much as you like.

The overall responsibility is to ensure that end customers, couriers and partners have design and surfaces that make their experience better. Examples of this include: Partners can easily send packages with the right tools to support. Make sure couriers have as easy a time as possible to pick up and deliver. Make sure dispatchers have the tools that can monitor everything and oversee the logistics.

You will build tools to support all the above, both for mobile application and traditional web page.

Other areas of responsibility:

• Develop solutions to ensure efficient communication with the user
•    Develop solutions to ensure efficient sharing of packages between driver and car.
•    Develop solutions to ensure quickest route is achieved.
•    Develop solutions that are efficient and user friendly in order to ensure drivers can do their job fast and with high precision.

Technologies being used

We use cloud services to ensure development is as simple as possible. Some of the technologies include: TypeScript, React, React Native, Node.js, Kotlin, Spark Framework, PostgreSQL, Google Maps, Heroku, AWS and more.

Full-Stack Developer

We are looking for someone who can be an integral part of the development team who thrives in an agile environment with high competencies among colleagues. You will be working with the newest technology in an environment with a short life cycle of transactions, thus giving you the opportunity to experiment as much as you like.

As one of our full stack developers, you’ll help us develop and improve all the systems behind our platform – our dispatch and logistics systems (Kotlin based), courier app (React Native), and user facing interfaces (Typescript/React). We work cross functional, so you’ll get a chance to contribute to all of the different systems, depending on what you’re interested in working on. 

We like to work with the user in focus, in short incremental cycles. A big part of the job is therefore to understand the problems we’re trying to solve, and iteratively test solutions in the live environment.
