Company: Paperplane
Website: http://paperplanehq.com
Headquarter: Phoenix, Arizona, United States
We’re looking for someone who’s passionate about building awesome tools and applications.
You’re probably a freelancer and have that entrepreneurial bug. Having a 9-to-5 or being one of many developers isn’t appealing to you. You don’t want to commute, work in a cubicle, or even be tied to any particular place. You simply want to be armed with a laptop, make cool stuff, and live an awesome life…
You enjoy solving unique problems and feel most at home knee deep in code and photoshop/sketch. You’re obsessive about building things right the first time.
When you're given a task, you take ownership and find the most effective way to complete it, whether or not it requires a bajillion rounds of trial and error.
If this sounds like you, read on….
Who we are
We’re a small, bootstrapped team of driven product creators who have a passion for making cool (and useful) stuff! For the past 5 years we’ve been helping people grow their businesses by marketing their products/services online. Now, we’re expanding our impact by creating Spiffy (Spiffy.co) and it’s already made quite the splash in the marketing industry with an easy, yet powerful way to create checkout pages. We believe in rapid iteration and testing with the market rather than perfecting things that may just ultimately flop down the road.
Our Stack
All of our front-end code is built on a framework using Bootstrap and Mithril with styling being done using Sass/SCSS to keep it readable. We use Mithril for basic interactivity. We use Laravel (PHP/MySQL) for our backends. Our apps are deployed on individual Ubuntu servers hosted by DigitalOcean to allow for rapid scale and easy deployment.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll be working on deploying new features to Spiffy and coming up with creative ways to overcome technical challenges. You’ll be responsible for the full lifecycle of user experience from design, coding, and thinking through ways to make users lives easier – you have the opportunity to own every part and will be playing a critical role in the growth of Spiffy.
--Develop new products and applications
--Prototype new and existing ideas
--Develop early technical and UX concepts
--Research and solve for technical/UX issues
--Improve existing front-end and user experience flows
Skills we’re looking for
--3+ years of front-end and Javascript development experience
--Very strong Javascript skills
--Strong CSS/HTML skills
--Preferably worked as freelancer or independent contractor
--Diverse knowledge and passion for both front-end and design/ux
--Experience working on a team within an MVC framework
--Experience building web applications in a team environment, not just websites
--Experience with Mithril and/or Laravel are huge bonus points!
All the details
This gig is a remote contractor position and gives you the freedom to make your own hours, work when you want, and where you want. Need to pick your kids up from school? Have to catch a football game? Do it! Ultimately we're looking for a long-term relationship and someone who can grow as the company grows (both in responsibility and in compensation). To demonstrate that you've read this posting, please include the word 'waffle' in your response :)
