Senior Frontend Engineer with React for SaaS Startup – (100% Remote) – America

Project Description

We’re building the future of sales communication. Our CRM integrates calling, empowering sales teams to close deals (faster). We’re a 100% globally-distributed team of ~55 high-performing, happy people who are dedicated to making a product customers love.

We use the newest web technologies to build our app’s frontend, which includes a single-page JavaScript web app built with React. We bundle with Webpack and target modern browsers. Our UI updates in near real-time and is written in LESS/CSS (with flexbox and grid layout) using CSS modules, and we make use of fun technologies like WebSockets and WebRTC.

We care about performance, maintainability, and testability in our frontend code. We sweat the UI/UX details and work collaboratively with the Product team throughout the design process, diving into lo-fi Freehand wireframes and communicating continuously when ideas are brought to life using Figma and code.

Our frontend app communicates with our backend services through an API and a GraphQL endpoint. We use Python/Flask, MongoDB, Postgres, Elasticsearch, and Redis to power our backend. We operate these services in Docker containers on AWS.

We’re big believers in open source, so we’ve created a lot of it. You can see our projects on GitHub or read about what we’re working on in The Making of Close, our behind-the-scenes Product & Engineering blog. Check out react-custom-scroller, use-infinite-scroll, use-abortable-effect, and smart-tooltip-delay or insights from our day-to-day work such as Highlights From a Complex Downshift.js Refactor, A Case Study in”Reactizing” a Complex Backbone View, and Finding the cause of a memory leak in Jest tests.
