Job Description

As a Senior Software Developer at Myplanet, you'll work with high-profile enterprise clients on projects that impact thousands of people every day. You’ll use Composable and a design system to execute on a front-end eCommerce project using Agile methods. You will integrate third party eCommerce components to achieve the desired functionality. Reporting to the Manager, Software Development, your role will feature plenty of technical challenges and opportunities to improve the practice and process of software development at Myplanet.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with other developers, designers, and team members creating and implementing project work
• Prioritize and estimate work to be done alongside designers and Engagement Manager to ensure projects are delivered on time and on budget. Be transparent about progress
• Proactively update stakeholders on project progress and decision making rationale
• Document and diagram designs to communicate with project stakeholders

Skills and Qualifications

• 5+ years industry experience as a full-stack JavaScript developer, both front-end and back-end
• Industry experience in eCommerce or with retail technology
• Solid knowledge of modern web technologies and techniques such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and responsive design
• Experience with database technologies such as PostgreSQL and MongoDB
• Experience with containers (Docker, Build Environments, Local Development, Serverless)

Is the Role a Fit for You?

The Full-stack JavaScript Developer role emphasizes team collaboration, technical proficiency, and leadership in your area of expertise. You’ll find fulfillment in the role if you:

• Delight in making things. You thrill at the concept of going beyond the theoretical and applying your ideas, skills, and expertise to products used by people every day.
• Find passion in new challenges. Every chance to learn and move things forward with your can-do attitude or to share your entrepreneurship excites you.
• Thoroughly enjoy collaborative work. Knowledge sharing and the chance to be part of a team who co-own the output, instead of a solo hero who lives and dies by their work alone, is important to you.

Benefits and Perks

• Explore ongoing opportunities for professional development: training, conferences, certifications, and in-house peer mentorship
• Experiment with new techniques, wear multiple hats, and learn about new disciplines.
• Pursue independent projects, explore new ideas, and challenge yourself in your field with dedicated “Awesome time” (self-directed professional development) annually and quarterly training budgets
• Enjoy a flexible schedule of full-time hours, health/dental benefits, and private US coverage
• Our Toronto HQ office is a modern, ergonomic space complete with standing/sitting desks and an open-concept social atmosphere
• Additional perks are available including in-house mindfulness training, an employee stock option plan, remote group get-togethers, and more!

Performance and Growth Expectations

Our environment is not your average, hierarchical software studio: we emphasize accountability for outcomes, but autonomy in activities. Your work will be measured using our 360-degree system (a combination of peer and supervisor feedback) and will also be measured on the basis of client and user satisfaction. Your growth path is in your hands— you’ll have ongoing meetings with a mentor and professional guide to help determine your path, but your progress will be based on what you hope to achieve and how you choose to access the resources available to you.
