Web Application Developer (.ts/.js/.php/…)

As a software development, IT consulting and services company active in a wide range of sectors, TenTwentyFour¹⁰²⁴'s projects range from Django-based web platforms and APIs built on Ruby-on-Rails, via WordPress Themes and Plug-ins to state-of-the-art single page applications running on JavaScript-centred stacks. (We love vue, koa and almost everything that comes with ES6 TypeScript!)

Whether TenTwentyFour¹⁰²⁴ is designing and implementing industrial apps for embedded systems or developing a mobile application to drive our client's sales, we consistently focus on these principles: Code quality through teamwork and peer-review, solid foundations through unit- and functional-testing, and a powerful code-base through functional programming and proven engineering principles such as Robert C. Martin's SOLID [0].

Most importantly, we keep challenging ourselves to write better code, improve our processes and make code easier to test and review. We encourage all developers, from junior to senior, to study good software design and to keep striving for code that is easier to read and a breeze to maintain. A sustainable architecture and clean, strategic programming are what sets TenTwentyFour¹⁰²⁴ apart from the crowd.

Your role

This position is open to juniors, mediors and seniors alike. We're not looking for a trainee with zero experience, nor are we looking for a one-track specialist. We're looking for a person who wants to grow and improve as a software artisan, regardless of their current level or skill-set. At TenTwentyFour¹⁰²⁴, you will be facing multiple responsibilities and given challenging – yet rewarding – tasks at every stage of a project's life-cycle. Supported by your colleagues, you will be implementing user-interfaces, back-end controllers and database structures alike. You will be involved in code quality assurance (peer review) and learn to produce clear, concise, functional and efficient code.

At TenTwentyFour¹⁰²⁴, you will not be restricted to a single project, programming language or methodology. While we do develop and sell our own products, such as paperless.lu – customers like to work with us because we're not just a web-agency churning out websites from ready-made templates. Flexibility, versatility and adaptability are some of TenTwentyFour¹⁰²⁴'s signature traits and we're very proud of the fact that our engineers do not simply execute blindly, but analyse, reflect and consult on the best path ahead.

Whether you're most experienced programming TypeScript, PHP or other programming languages, you'll be first assigned to the stack you're most comfortable with and subsequently be guided to gradually learn new techniques and widen your horizon to encompass the full variety of stacks that we work in.

TenTwentyFour¹⁰²⁴ has made a habit of looking for team members dedicated to their work, even if they don't have a fancy diploma in IT or countless years of experience. We believe that great talents have the ability to learn quickly and take advantage of new technologies, be it through formal or informal education. While experience can be acquired, persistence, the desire to learn and the self-confidence not to hesitate but to address problems and ask for help should be some of your strongest personality traits.

TenTwentyFour¹⁰²⁴ is not a full-remote company by design. But the times they are a-changing and we're no stranger to operating fully remote. While this position is open to fully-remote applicants, applicants who live close enough to drop by the office occasionally to not only share the work-load but also the community experience will be given preference.

Your responsibilities

As a web developer with TenTwentyFour¹⁰²⁴, you will be responsible for…

• Development of server-side back-ends and APIs (node.js, Python, PHP, Ruby, Rust, …) and integration with third-party APIs and libraries.
• Implementation of intuitive user interfaces using the latest web technologies (Vue, Angular, React, …).
• Development of hybrid mobile applications using ReactNative, Ionic or similar frameworks.
• Continuous integration and deployment of our applications using Jenkins and Capistrano.
• Research and application of clean architecture and good software design.
• Maintenance of, and support for existing platforms and applications.
• Design and execution of unit-, integration and acceptance tests.
• Pair-programming and peer-review of your colleagues' code.

Your strengths

You're a good fit for this job, if you…

• …are motivated to study hard and/or able to learn quickly.
• …if you are not afraid to act autonomously and take initiative.
• …have an incline towards using and contributing to Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS).
• …have already dipped your toe into current TypeScript/ECMAScript frameworks and libraries, or
• …have a solid understanding of web technologies and protocols, as well as client-server architecture.
• …know what Jest, Cypress and Nightwatch stand for in software development as opposed to their use in popular culture.
• …have good written and spoken skills in English. (French, German or Luxembourgish are considered an asset but not mandatory.)
• …have a strong desire to deliver quality code, functional software and an overall satisfying experience to the customer (aka "customer-orientation").
• …have a degree in a Computer-Science related field or not. We don't actually care, just show us that you're awesome at what you do!
