The Role
Wefarm operates in markets with demanding data and technology limitations: With support for low data usage, intermittent connectivity and a range of old devices. Rather than seeing this as a hindrance, you are excited by the challenge of building highly optimised web applications within these constraints.
You will be focussed on a greenfield project bringing your extensive experience to bear on the development of our React client within a cross-functional squad and work very closely with a Tech Lead, Product Manager and Product Designer to make sure we're solving challenges that will bring the greatest value to our members.

• Working with the other engineers to drive rapid delivery

• Establishing and executing clearly defined OKRs and priorities
Outcome 2: Products are built with a high quality of technical execution
• Clean and efficient idiomatic code is clearly documented
• Solutions are designed, tested and deployed in a simple and scalable way
• With a pragmatic approach to speed of delivery and robustness of solution
• Technical proposals, knowledge and learnings are continually shared across team boundaries

Key Skills and Attributes
Superpowers:
• Bring a positive "can-do" energy to your team with a bias towards delivery
• Highly proficient at developing scalable lightweight, accessible web applications
• Working closely with product designers to optimise solutions for delivering at pace
• Optimize code to be extremely efficient to ensure high performance using tools such as Lighthouse
• Good knowledge and handling of common React patterns (HOC, render props, Provider pattern, Container/Presentational components etc.)
• Knowledge of common React principles (immutability, pure functions, functional/class components, pure components, change detection etc)
• Rock solid knowledge of common React libraries (Redux, react router, etc.)
• Experience with setting up and writing end to end tests

Everything else:
• Be an exceptional problem solver
• Be driven to create impactful products
• Be comfortable working in a fast paced start-up environment
• Keen to upskill the wider team
• Enjoy being part of a cross-functional team
• Have a passion for using tech for good

Rewards package and remuneration
Wefarm is a global business that believes in flexible working and shared ownership.
Every Wefarmer is a shareholder in the business; we are all the makers and owners of Wefarm’s vision. We also offer pension packages, extended healthcare, enhanced parental leave, personal coaching (with MoreHappi), learning allowance and study leave.
As a global business we believe that remote first is the future of work, and support our teams in creating the best setup for their personal situation; every Wefarmer gets the standard tech they need and a stipend to set up their home office & we offer flexible office bases in our four main hub cities. Being remote first doesn’t mean we don’t spend time together though; we have regular global team events (virtual for now) and local meet ups (where possible), bi-weekly All Hands meeting to make sure everyone is up to date, and hope that our next annual WeCamp (global get together) will be in person again.
Equal Opportunity Statement
At Wefarm, we’re building a place where everyone belongs and can add value, regardless of their background - and our team is no different. We’re working hard to create a diverse and inclusive culture where we take inspiration from different experiences, backgrounds and ways of thinking.
