Intermediate Full Stack Developer

As part of an exciting new project, OSG is building an open sourced accessible course authoring tool.  Organizations are relying on digital and online training more than ever, however, creating courses and content that are accessible to individuals of all abilities remains a difficult task that is reserved for a select few with niche training. Because of that, most courses are not truly accessible. We are embarking on a journey to remove the barriers to creating accessible digital content by developing an easy-anyone-can-do-it authoring tool that inherently embraces accessibility.  While we will be embracing this tool within our own Curriculum department, we also wish to freely share it with others.

We’re looking for an experienced Intermediate Full Stack Developer with the ability to thrive within a newly formed team with fluid processes and an evolving roadmap. This person will play a big part in building an exciting, innovative product from the ground up, and will enjoy all of the creative freedom that comes with new product development.  As a remote first organization, this is a work from home opportunity. 

*Please note, there is one position available - multiple locations posted for sourcing purposes only*

What will you do in this role?

• Develop and research key functionalities within the accessible course authoring tool
• Execute on the product roadmap developed by the Program Manager and key technical and non-technical partners
• Work closely with the other Software Developers to ensure strong, scalable code 
• Conduct thorough testing independently and alongside QA
• Research, recommend and provide innovative solutions and advancements for the project
• Actively participate in concept and design discussions

What can you bring to the table?

• University Degree in Computer Science, related field, or equivalent experience
• 5+ years of relevant work experience within a busy environment, ideally as a part of small, agile teams
• Minimum of 3 years on-the-job experience with Node.js, SQL, JavaScript and React
• Familiarity with electron.js is a bonus
• Experience building accessible software will be a strong plus
• The ability and appetite to work within a creative environment, receive and provide consistent feedback and thrive with constant iteration 

What’s in it for you: 

• Comprehensive benefit package including health, vision, and dental
• Competitive compensation
• Physical and mental rest, enjoy personal wellness days 
• Flexible hours, we know that the 9-5 doesn’t work for everyone
