Senior React Developer

MemberSpace is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) company whose mission is to help non-technical entrepreneurs build a sustainable membership business anywhere on the internet.

Starting a business is hard, especially for those that are less tech-literate. Therefore, our team focuses heavily on customer support and being empathetic to anyone who contacts us. This value is deep in our roots as a business and something we’ve emphasized since day one .

Here’s more about our team and story.

The Role

We are looking for a Senior React developer to join our technical team. We’re expecting you to give a full-time effort (around 35-40 hours/week) working on MemberSpace.

We pride ourselves on being a low-stress and calm company.

We have a structured but still flexible development process. Features and enhancements are first presented as raw ideas that our Leadership Team frames and shapes into what we call a Package before presenting to our Dev Team to work on during a 6-week cycle. Here is quick summary of the Shape Up process that inspired us.

All members of the team are encouraged to think about the strategic direction of the product and pitch ideas to the rest of the team.

We follow a testing first, Github flow PR strategy where all pushes are automatically run through a CI build server. Most communication happens in Basecamp with PR specific communication happening in Github.

You’ll own your features and bug fixes from start to completion, including design, implementation, testing, and deployment to our staging and production pipelines. This may involve collaborating with the Support team (e.g. to help with testing) or working with a 3rd party integration.

We are looking for someone who likes to spend most of the day solving problems with code but can also contribute to the bigger goals of the business.
