- At least a year’s experience in a professional development environment. Comfortable communicating directly with stakeholders and client teams. A self-starter who’s able to manage their time and tasks well. Someone eager to learn new techniques and help us improve. An interest in the design side of things.
Responsibilities:
- We’re looking for a junior/mid-weight front-end developer to join our remote working team.
About you...
Collaborative You’ll be working closely with our design team, turning their deliverables into templates or components using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. You’ll also be working alongside other developers, both internally and clientside. Version control is key to successful collaboration, so experience with Git or similar would be ideal.
Front-end fanatic Different projects involve new techniques and unique solutions, and we’re looking for a candidate who wants to bring some fresh perspectives along. You should be performance and accessibility minded and always focus on the user experiences when making decisions.
Creative We view front-end as the place between design and back-end where the magic happens. There are always opportunities for you to introduce your own creative touches to an interface – be it animations, clever interactions or SVG wizardry.
Tech stack You should have ventured beyond the surface of JavaScript, and be interested in digging deeper still. Experience with React would be perfect, but we can bring you up to speed if it’s new to you. We use WordPress every now and then, so a decent understanding of this CMS and knowledge of PHP would be great.
Lighthouse use design, collaboration and experience to solve complex problems for people with big ideas.
We bring out the best in the teams we work with, leaving them with more than they expected from an agency. And that carries over into our own team too. We want to create great jobs for great people, enabling them to do the best UX, design and development work around.
What are we about?
100% remote Whilst we are a London-based agency, we have team members located across five countries and accept applications from all over the world. We prefer people in timezones close to GMT as we like to all be awake at the same time.
Sustainable growth We’ve been around since 2008, concentrating on growing by slowly and steadily adding the right people at the right time. We’re deliberately small enough not to pack out the pub, but big enough that you’ll be amongst a wide range of backgrounds and skill sets.
Health and wellbeing We don’t expect or want a team of sleep-deprived overworkers. We’ll make sure you take enough time out no matter how busy things are, as well as supporting your health with comprehensive medical insurance and a focus on mental wellbeing at work.
No egos required ♀️ Collaboration is key to our success, and doing that means valuing input from across the company. From founders to fresh hires, everyone’s voice deserves to be listened to equally. There aren’t any rockstars at Lighthouse (however good at karaoke certain people think they are ).
