TalentTribe Asia – Full-stack Web Developer – Project Basis

TalentTribe is looking for a full-stack developer to build the MVP for a new product line, building on our current career discovery platform for millennials. Expect to work closely with the co-founders and be immersed in the life of a start-up, with full autonomy and freedom.

Here’s what you’ll get to do in this role:
Build and launch an MVP within a 6-week time frame

• Front-end web development: Develop beautiful, responsive and performant web interfaces catering to multiple devices & screen resolutions, based on wireframes.
• Back-end web development: Design and build the web platform, third-party data integration, API & backend systems.
  
• Software testing & troubleshooting: There are always bugs that come up and need fixing. Measure, diagnose and improve product performance.

This is a project-based role, where you have the option to work remotely. As opposed to a freelancer who’s looking at this as a one-off project, we’re looking for someone who is excited to build & grow a product after the MVP is launched – someone we can work closely with towards a potential full-time conversion to a full-stack developer who’s a part of our core team. 

We are looking for people who have:

• Proficiency in React or other modern JavaScript front-end framework
  We use React in our tech stack, but are open to having you pick up React on-the-job if you already have a proficiency in other JavaScript front-end frameworks.
• Proficiency in Node.js
• Experience in Firebase
• Knowledge in deployment for major cloud providers (e.g. AWS, GCP, Azure)
• Competence in unit testing
• Knowledge of terminal and Unix systems
• Ability to document requirements and specifications

Good-To-Haves

• Experience in Redux application state management
• Ability to learn fast independently and act fast
  As an early-stage start-up, there’s often limited resources & time to provide step-by-step guidance. We’ve had the best experience with team members who’re resourceful, independent & fast learners.
• Ability to communicate between the business side and tech side
• Ability to translate business needs into product requirements

Confidence can sometimes hold us back from applying for a job. But we'll let you in on a secret: you don’t need a tech background for this role. If you are not a developer, but have always been looking to move into tech as a career, have the aptitude for it, and are willing to grind hard – we always love to uncover hidden talent gems.  

One of the best developers we’ve worked with was a business student who joined us when he was a student with zero tech experience. He self-taught himself on-the-job, and was a brilliant fast learner who delivered. TalentTribe is a place where everyone can grow. So however you identify & whatever background you bring with you, please apply if this is a project that you feel excited to work on.
