Android or iOS, we're all friends here. We develop with a strong focus on design-led thinking producing innovative and stunning apps with amazing, behind-the-scenes code.

With new projects ramping up for 2019, we are looking for an experienced Backend Developer. The age of JavaScript is upon us so come join us as we tackle frontend, backend, middle-end (where the hobbits are) and everything in between. You know, like mid-front end. We want someone willing to pick up the reins on Node.js and help take our "Sauce" MBaaS to the next level.

YOUR NEW JOB

Working with our mobile and frontend developers to create beautiful REST APIs
Consulting work on projects for NZ, US and UK global companies

All JavaScript code is not created equal (or is that ===)
Bleeding edge can cut both ways
Experience with Node.js and bonus points for GraphQL
The best products are a combination of design, code and a dash of love
CV to the top of the stack if you include existing sites, web apps or GitHub repos so you can show us what you got

WHO YOU ARE

You can talk to clients. Yes. In plain English.
You’ve written your own JS web apps in your own time
You know that cutting corners isn't cutting edge
You’re passionate about the latest tech & framework
You understand the role design plays in successful products
You’re keen to learn and keen to teach

If you have the ability, we'll train you further with a range of great opportunities and exciting projects under the expert guidance of our talented Backend team (12 people and growing).
