Remote Senior Frontend Application Engineer
@ Gabi

We are looking for Senior Frontend Application Engineers to help us build an awesome new product/service for the consumer insurance market in the US.

We build our app using a flexible stack of frontend and backend technologies including Rails, Node.JS, React, MySQL, Redis, and Linux. Expertise in these areas is a huge plus, but working experience with other proven web technologies (such as Python or PHP) and other relational/NoSQL databases is a fine alternative.

We embrace lean startup, continuous integration, and agile development concepts. 

We are looking for people who understand the need to build lightweight, loosely coupled microservices supporting focused objectives. We are open to choosing the best new and exciting tools to get the job done and having fun at the same time.

We are an open, diverse and collaborative team working across Silicon Valley, Germany, Slovenia, and Poland.

This position is based in Łódź, Poland, with a healthy dose of remote work.

• experience with other functional or imperative languages such as Ruby, Python, Java or Go - with and without web frameworks.
