Graduate Front End Developer

WHO WE ARE:

We make a web-based inventory and purchasing system used by independent restaurants, breweries and small food manufacturers. Our main product is a payroll and timekeeping app for hourly workforces, sold by subscription and supported from Omaha.

THE ROLE:

Looking for a Graduate Front End Developer who wants to stay somewhere for a while. Part of this job is rebuilding an older AngularJS front end in React. Some of that work is unglamorous migration, and we won't pretend otherwise. Our headquarters is in Omaha, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. You will join as an independent contractor on a long-term agreement. Payment is monthly in USD. You will need at least 4 hours of overlap with US Central time. Reliable internet and a power backup are a must.

WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON:

• Migrate legacy jQuery or AngularJS pages to the current stack.
• Review frontend pull requests and keep coding conventions consistent.
• Build UI features in React and TypeScript from Figma designs.
• Integrate with REST and GraphQL APIs and handle loading, error and empty states properly.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Solid HTML and CSS, including Flexbox, Grid and responsive layouts.
• Deep working knowledge of React (hooks, context, rendering behaviour)
• Comfortable using browser dev tools to debug network, layout and performance issues.
• Familiarity with accessibility standards and semantic markup.

BONUS POINTS:

• Some Node.js backend work.
• Visual regression testing with Chromatic or Percy.
• Figma, including Dev Mode.

WHY WORK WITH US:

• Long-term engagement.
• Annual rate review.
• Company laptop.
• Monthly internet allowance.

Duration: 12 months. Start: Within 30 days.
