NOW HIRING: Front-End Developer


Company: iPhone Photography School
Website: https://iphonephotographyschool.com
Headquarters: Riga, Latvia


The Dream Job For A Front‑End Developer?

You’ve finally found it…

The perfect job for a talented front-end developer like you.


But who are we?

iPhone Photography School is the world's leading iPhone photography resource. In fact, we're one of the most successful online education companies of any kind.

But we're just getting started…

We’re about to revolutionize online education by creating the most engaging online courses in the world. And we’re well on our way to accomplish this ambitious goal…

You’ll see proof as you scroll down this page.

Of course, we can’t deliver a great learning experience without great front-end development.

And that’s why we want to hire another front-end developer. But what’s in it for you?


7 Reasons To Join iPhone Photography School As A Front-End Developer

Create World-Class Tech Solutions

We create our own tech solutions to specifically meet the needs of our customers. For example, we’ve built an industry-leading checkout system and our own online learning platform. Redesigning our website using AMP is the next big project in our backlog. We already have over a hundred thousand photographers as paying customers. At this scale, even small improvements in the front end will lead to massive benefits for our company. That’s why you’ll never have to lower your standards to meet an unrealistic deadline. Join our team, and you'll be able to do the best work of your life!

Only Work On Front-End Development

You've spent years honing your CSS and Javascript skills. Why would you waste your time on tasks that have nothing to do with the front end? All designs will be created by our talented in-house designer. Our back-end team will handle DevOps, and they’ll be available whenever you need them. By focusing on what you do best, you’ll become the best developer you can be!

Exceptional Dev Team That Really Works

Our five-person dev team really knows how to deliver the best results possible. You’ll get to plan your own tasks carefully while getting regular guidance from our CTO. You’ll always have enough time to write clean code and implement automated tests. We know that investing more time up front will result in less work and fewer bugs in the long run. Your work will be planned in weekly Scrum sprints, and you’ll set your own deadlines. Apply now, and you’ll become a part of an exceptional team that really works!

Millions Of People Will Use Your Work

There are over 1.7 billion websites online. Unfortunately, 99.9% of them will never have a significant user base because there are so many alternatives to choose from. It's frustrating to put months (or years) of work into a project that very few people will use. But that won’t happen in our company. Last month, our website received 1,098,625 unique visitors. And we already have 157,563 paying customers who take our online courses. Join our team, and your work will directly benefit all these people!

Stability You Can Count On

Most startups have huge ambitions – but little or no revenue. If you've spent years of your life in an exciting new project that never really took off, you already know how frustrating it can be. Rather than burning investor money, iPhone Photography School has been highly profitable for years. We’ve never taken investor money. Our rapid growth has been funded by sales. You won’t have to worry about our company running out of money.

Perks That Make A Difference

To get the best results, we have to offer the best possible work conditions. Things like a top-of-the-line laptop, automated solutions for repetitive tasks, and investing in your education make your work more valuable. So providing them is a no-brainer for us. We also want you to have a sense of belonging to our team. Even if you work remotely, you'll get to meet your coworkers in person at our regular team retreats. Whether it's rafting through the wilderness, sailing to a remote island, or participating in an ancient sauna ritual, you’ll remember these adventures for years to come.

Join A Company You Truly Believe In

Many people don't believe that their company creates a positive impact on the world. But our company is different. We help millions of people take better photos. And we make the most beautiful online courses in the world (you can watch a sample video below). Every week we receive hundreds of heartfelt thank-you notes from our students saying we helped fill their lives with the joy of photography. Join us, and you'll work for a company you truly believe in.

Here’s What We Expect From You
  • You’re excellent at creating cross-browser compatible responsive user interfaces
  • You can deliver efficient, easy-to-maintain, and scalable CSS code
  • You're proficient in CSS preprocessors and BEM methodology
  • You have significant experience with any of the modern JS frameworks (we use Vue.js)
  • You have excellent attention to detail
This is a full-time position. You can do this job from anywhere in the world – including your home, our beautiful office in Riga, Latvia, or any paradise location.

NOW HIRING: Frontend Web Developer


Company: Fisico Inc.
Website: https://fisicoinc.com
Headquarters: Westford, Massachusetts, United States


Do you love building functional landing pages and setting up funnels?

Better still… do you love building sites that improve people’s health and lives (through the products and services they sell)?

How would you like to join a team of professionals at a fast-growing company, work on fun projects, and get paid well in the process?

If you answered yes to all of the above, then this will be the most exciting post your read today. Here’s why…

My name Dr. George Karanastasis. And my natural health company, Fisico, is currently looking for a dependable front-end developer who can build sites that convert visitors into sales.

Please watch this YouTube video for a quick description:

https://youtu.be/3p_B2Cvemk4


Done watching? Great, here’s a bit more of what we’re looking for…

Specific Skills:
  • Very strong knowledge of HTML5, CSS3, and Bootstrap
  • Proficient in JavaScript/jQuery
  • Light PHP
  • Good eye for design (in the context of UX and conversion-focused landing pages)
  • Basic knowledge of Google Analytics, GTM, and similar tracking platforms
  • Some experience with 3rd party APIs
  • Clean code
  • Git version control

What You’ll Be Doing:
  • Building and/or editing custom-coded, responsive landing pages and sites that are fast-loading and cross-device compatible.
  • Helping to set up A/B tests for continuous optimization.
  • Working with lightweight APIs (e.g. Vidalytics, SmartyStreets, Zendesk, Wistia. etc.) to help streamline our e-commerce activities.
  • Working with designers to create functional pages from a PSD.
  • Collaborating with back-end developers to build out UI’s when needed.

Core Values of our Ideal Candidate:
  • Professionalism: you always show up and follow through on commitments.
  • Drive: you take pride in your professional and personal growth and continuously seek to improve.
  • Innovation: you have a “can-do” attitude, never back down from a challenge, and keep working on a problem until it’s solved.
  • Respect: for yourself, your team, and your customers/clients.
  • Integrity: you make the right choice – even when it’s not in your best interest to do so.

This is a part-time position (~10-15 per week) with the potential to grow into a full-time commitment. You won’t necessarily have work every single day. However, you must be flexible and be available Monday-Friday during business hours (EST).

Current projects typically require between one and three total work hours to complete. And we’d need a 24-48 business hour turnaround.

For the person who is dependable and understands this time schedule and need, I’m willing to consider an ongoing monthly retainer. Furthermore, the above is subject to change as the workload increases and you are assigned bigger projects.


A Bit More About Us:

We’re a Boston-based company that was founded in 2009 and has experienced hyper-growth year over year. We currently send millions of visitors each month to our various brand websites that sell information products and dietary supplements that change lives and dramatically improve people’s health.

You can learn more about these by browsing through our site. And please be sure to check out our raving customer reviews on the Better Business Bureau
(https://www.bbb.org/us/ma/westford/profile/marketing-consultant/fisico-inc-0021-165292).

Now, aside from making an impact on millions of lives, as part of our team, you will develop a deep understanding of how visual elements on a webpage (combined with copy) result in sales and conversions.

This is a highly sought-after skillset that dramatically increases your marketability and can propel your career (no matter where you decide to go, or do, in the future).

Lastly, we’re a hard-working group but we’re also lighthearted and fun to be around. And for the right person, this is truly a dream job.
