Senior Full Stack Software Engineer - FE Focus

About Us

At 800.com, we’re building an intuitive & powerful cloud communications platform for SMBs & Enterprises to communicate via Voice & SMS.

Our backend tech stack currently consists of PHP web apps that serve a public API that our front-end JavaScript app consumes (React / React Native). Our data stores include MySQL, Elasticsearch, and Redis. The underlying infrastructure runs on AWS using a combination of managed services like RDS and non-managed services running on EC2 instances. All of our development runs through CI/CD pipelines that build Docker images.

About You

We’re looking for an experienced full-time Software Engineer to join our engineering team. Someone who has a solid understanding of web technologies and wants to help design, implement, launch, and scale major systems and user-facing features. The person in this role would own the front-end of our four properties: marketing site, web app, mobile app, and internal dashboard. 

You should have senior-level experience (~7 years) building modern front-end and back-end systems, with 5+ years working with React, and stay up to date with modern javascript frameworks including but not limited to: React Native, Typescript, React 18, and experience in mobile. Additionally, you should have around 3 years of that experience using PHP (even better if that includes working with PHP Laravel), and be familiar with building pipelines.

You also have around three years of experience using MySQL, Redis, or similar data stores. You have significant experience designing, scaling, debugging, and optimizing systems to make them fast and reliable. You have experience participating in code reviews and providing overall code quality suggestions to help maintain the structure and quality of the codebase. You are willing to mentor junior developers in all things front-end. 

You’re comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with a small and talented team. You are able to work with very little guidance, manage your time well, communicate effectively and collaborate in a fully distributed team.
