We are looking for a JavaScript Developer to join SMG, working on our Plan-Apps platform, which acts as the operating system that connects brands and retailers to streamline planning, media buying, budgeting, and evaluating commerce marketing activity.

  • Contribute code across the full stack of the web application.

  • Ensure that the team’s technical quality standards are met.

  • Support component design, development and maintenance.

  • Write automated tests.

  • Conduct code reviews.

What you'll need to have / be

  • Some experience delivering code in a professional environment and working in an agile team.

  • Excellent knowledge of the JavaScript language and related frameworks. Must include React, node.js (or both).

  • Excellent knowledge of HTML and CSS.

  • Practical experience working with databases, ideally MongoDB.

  • Good understanding of software tools and practices, including git, pull requests, code reviews, automated testing, CI/CD etc.

  • Understanding of security and performance considerations.

  • Typescript (optional).

P.s. we try really hard to make sure that we list only essential criteria here, BUT if you think you can do an amazing job, yet don't have every single thing on this list, we'd still love to hear from you.
