Slides With Friends is a platform for interactive presentations, group education, live polls/quizzes, and team building — we make group experiences more engaging, educational, and fun.

Our small, all-remote team is looking to hire a full-time (contract) software engineer for 4-6 months to help our founder/CTO build product features and updates. Additional work after this is possible if the fit is excellent.

You’ll work directly with our technical co-founder to help build and release new features as well as to modernize, organize, and document our codebase over time. This is a central, hands-on role and you will be a core part of the team: you will develop features that will directly improve our customers lives and you will see immediate results from the things you build.

To do well in this position you should have years of experience writing clean and reliable code, shipping features regularly, and taking ownership of projects from start to finish. You will start by working with our current codebase (Vue2) to understand how our application works, how we like to do things, and where our priorities are — this is a role for someone who likes to code and ship prolifically and has the experience to do so well.

What we’re looking for

• You have 5+ years of hands-on experience building production software for the web
• You have a minimum of 2 years working with VueJS professionally
• You are easy to work with, flexible in coding style and methods, and have lots of experience working collaboratively with a team
• You want a role that is primarily code contribution (e.g. building and launching features)
• You have a strong grasp of HTML/CSS including grid, flexbox, use of preprocessors, and optimizing for browser compatibility and performance
• You have a visible track record of delivering products and feature to end-users
• You have excellent written and verbal English skills and communicate clearly
• You are experienced with modern best practices for automated testing, CI/CD, git, etc. and can help us improve where we need it
• You have experience organizing large projects for reliability, testability, performance, and upgradeability and you have opinions on how best to do these things
• You like to take ownership of projects and don’t need a lot of oversight or handholding
• You can understand the high-level goals goals of a project and are willing to compromise for business priorities when necessary
