Full-stack Engineer at WhereIsMyTransport

Description

WhereIsMyTransport is hiring an experienced Full-stack Engineer. You will be building scalable, elegant web applications that impact the lives of passengers in the majority world.

We are a globally distributed scale-up revolutionising the way public transport information from emerging-market megacities can be accessed and understood. Using geospatial data collection, we untangle the mysteries of dynamic public transport networks - knowledge which, when shared, improves understanding and creates a more equitable society. We’re experts in our field - that’s why we’re backed by some of the world’s most renowned mobility technology investors, including Google and Toyota Tsusho.

You will be responsible for creating and maintaining innovative, world-class public transport data collection tools. You will work within a team of full-stack, front-end and mobile developers, collaborating closely with a Product Designer and Product Manager in an agile environment running Scrum development methodologies.

Requirements

• Develop our suite of data collection and mapping products, using .NET Core and React (Redux)

• Engage with the team’s Product Manager and Designer to deliver a world-class set of products for our customers

• Engage with the Technology Lead in the team to ensure adherence to best practices and scalability of our products

• Become a trusted member of the technology team. Coach and mentor Software Engineers

• Drive best practices, decision making and technical excellence within the technology team

• Improve system quality by identifying issues and common patterns, and developing standard operating procedures

• Design and implement maintainable & reliable code

• Write unit, integration and load tests for new and existing code

• Be responsible for technical documentation

• Work on bug fixing and improving application performance

Please note that as a developer on the team, you would join an on-call schedule to help respond to unforeseen incidents or outages after hours. Due to the global nature of our business, this could happen at any time. It is not expected that you will get paged every time you are on call - simply that you are available in case of emergencies. The whole team is part of this rotation and we help each other out where necessary, but we regularly change who the first responder is.

About you

You have:

• 4+ years of full-stack development experience, preferably .NET Core

• Restful API design experience

• Ability to effectively communicate technical concepts in a multidisciplinary environment

Bonus points if you have:

You are:

• Accountable; you take on ownership, “it’s not my job” is not in your vocabulary

• Vocal; you like to challenge but will commit once a decision is reached

• Innovative; you continuously look to improve and simplify our products and processes

• Curious; you love to learn new things and are actively seeking out feedback

• Friendly; you have a positive attitude, communicate well and are a team player
