How will you be doing this
- You’re part of an agile, multidisciplinary team building features for our product. You bring your own unique skill set to the table and collaborate both with your own team members and other colleagues across teams to accomplish your goals.
- Work with the UX designers from the concept phase to the specification and finalizing phase to derive the solution.
- Collaborate with team members responsible for the API part, discuss and finalize the needs to make the process efficient.
- You prioritize work with the team and its product owner, weighing both the business and technical value of each task.
- Groom the tasks by understanding the functional aspect and applying the best technical solutioning to it.
- Train and help the junior team members with your experience in technology and process, so that they grow and become an even bigger asset to the team.
What we have worked on and where we are going
We have set a product vision for the future and defined a one-product strategy for Aize. We are now moving into the execution phase and are in need of more doers who want to challenge themselves as well as us as a product company. As an organization, we’re constantly evolving which means that a lot of opportunities will appear as we move forward. Maybe you want to be an expert in a particular area, manage a team or even seek a different career path? At Aize you’ll have the opportunity to explore and evolve together with us.
Team
As we have different teams who are in need of new team member(s)r - we are open to hear about your skills, experiences and motivation before suggesting the right team for you. However, all our teams are cross functional and multidisciplinary - and even though you will be working in one product team with its responsibility for a feature, everything at Aize is so connected that you will essentially be involved in the development of the entire product.
A few teasers on what you might end up doing in our teams
- Help in making the code manageable and maintainable
- Creating novel solutions for expressing information on web interfaces
- Working extensively on Canvas and SVG elements of Web
- Working with some of the brightest minds who work with 3D technologies
- Innovating our 2D area and work on further developing functionality of smart documents
- Work closely with designers and be involved in shaping the UX for a new feature
Who we think you are
- Passionate about technology and driven by problem solving - we care about what we do, and so should you
- Responsible and courageous - innovation is not something that just happens. You ask questions, participate in discussions, disagree with your colleagues; we will never solve a real problem without exploring our options. In essence; dare to be wrong
- Curious and always on the lookout for improvements - maybe we should implement a new library in our tech stack? Maybe the framework we have chosen for the app is not the optimal one? Suggestions to better shape our work methodology? Have some concerns around the UX? Let us know!
- Selfless and collaborative, always eager to share your knowledge with others - we all have our own area of expertise. You will bring some of the technical know-how, but you will also work closely with people from different areas of the organization. It’s not always coding, debugging and deployment, you actually need to understand the full picture.
Finally, and this should be self explanatory as this is a very senior position😉 - you should have experience with modern frontend technologies. We don’t expect you to be familiar with all of the technologies we use - however, experience with for example TypeScript would make it a whole lot easier for you to join the team and hit the ground running.
Here’s a rough overview of our techstack:
Angular v16
Typescript
RxJS
GraphQL
D3.js
Fabric.js
HTML
CSS
We use the latest and greatest version of our tech stack. Also, we try to modularize things - so any experience with creating reusable libraries or using NX for workspace would be really beneficial.
