We ensure high standards by comprehensive end to end and unit testing, as well as refactoring to ensuring we work to the latest standards, best practices and up to date frameworks. We work as part of a cross-discipline team who deliver robust and reusable components originating from product requirements through UX, design, development, and quality assurance. We are looking for a pro-active person to join the team and actively contribute to code reviews, pairing, knowledge sharing, mentoring and technical roadmapping.
Technologies we’re using:
Angular 1 & 2 / Ionic / Cordova
ES6 / Babel / TypeScript / SCSS / LESS
Gulp / Protractor / Jasmine / Karma
Android / iOS
Jira / Bamboo / Git
RESTful JSON backend (Java / MySQL / AWS )
Great if you have…
