Software Developer 🔥


The need

The Clowdr team is looking for a software developer. Our ideal candidate for this position is an experienced developer with a particular interest in front-end design and implementation. You should have an eye for what looks good and an instinct for good user experience.

Essential skills:

  • Front-end web application development
  • User experience design (UX)
  • TypeScript
  • React

Nice to have:

  • Chakra UI
  • Heroku
  • GraphQL
  • AWS
  • Hasura

Who we're looking for

You should be friendly and easy to work with, and comfortable working remotely with an internationally distributed team. We encourage flexible working and asynchronous collaboration, but the international nature of our business means meetings can be at a wide range of hours. Our existing engineering team work from European timezones.

Clowdr is incorporated in the UK, but there is no need to be resident or have the right to work in the UK for this role.

Ideal candidates for this position will have a broad skillset related to web application development, with at least 3-5 years of experience designing and developing web-based systems. Talent is more important than specific skills, so it's still worth contacting us if you don't precisely match the job description below.

The ideal candidate for any position will be comfortable pitching in at all levels of our stack when necessary. We develop all of our software in the open [1].

What we offer

A critical role in a public-interest, community-focused company that is developing cutting-edge, open-source technology for a super-hot market sector, driven by a passion to combat climate change while increasing inclusivity at conferences.

A friendly, flexible remote working environment.

Competitive remuneration.

The company

Clowdr is a young and quickly growing conference platform that aims to reduce the carbon footprint of academic conferences by offering a more attractive virtual alternative.

Clowdr CIC has 5 founders, all contributing to every aspect of the business. Ed and Ross are full time CEO and CTO. Both are software developers by background, though Ed also has entrepreneurship training. Benjamin, Jonathan, and Crista remain full-time in their academic positions and contribute as much as possible to Clowdr. Ed and Ross currently do the bulk of technical development, and the whole team contributes to business development and operations. We are in the process of onboarding a business development manager to focus on scaling up the latter activities.
