About the role

Full Stack Development Lead for AlgaeCal, an eCommerce company focused on bone health. Leading a team of developers while leveraging modern web technologies like React and Node.js.

Responsibilities

When it comes to web development, you’re a jack of all trades. Your code is cleaner than Marie Kondo’s kitchen. You can squish bugs like a crazed entomologist. And your system design solutions are more elegant than an Italian countess.
AlgaeCal is looking for a Full Stack Development Lead to bring their wizardry to our fun-loving Dev team.
You’ll be working with a great team. The developers at AlgaeCal have been there, done that, and got the t-shirt. They’ve written more code than Alan Turing. They’ve learned more programming languages than C3PO. They’ve immersed themselves in so many back end/front end tasks that they’ve had to be pulled out of the Matrix by their ankles on a Friday evening. And the best part? They're friendly, funny, and easy to work with.
You’ll use your powers for good. This isn’t one of those jobs that crush your soul with mindless tasks. On the contrary! You’ll be working on a wide range of applications that helps spread a powerful message – bone loss is beatable.
You won’t be micromanaged. We’ll give you a simple set of KPIs with crystal clear expectations.

A resume that wows us. We expect you’ll have proven web development skills involving front and back end. And we’ll also expect you to be skilled at working in the overlap between the two.
5+ years of experience in a software development role. You’ll be able to provide us with examples of your work in a wide variety of coding niches. And your resume will demonstrate your proven ability to lead a team of 2-3 intermediate and associate developers.
An encyclopedic knowledge of React, Typescript, and Node.js.
The chops to work in the Shopify Ecosystem –– including Hydrogen and Shopify APIs. We’d also love it if you were familiar with GCP, especially Cloud Storage and BigQuery.
The knowhow to support and maintain Node.js middleware integration between Shopify & Salesforce API.There’s no ifs, ands, or buts about it - you’ll need at least 2 years of experience as a kickass software developer to succeed in this role.
A yoda-like ability to develop and deploy features for our WordPress blog and website templates. We expect you’ll know RESTful and GraphQL APIs inside out and back to front.
A thick portfolio that demonstrates your mastery of all-things dev. Sorry, but if you have to Google ‘hexagonal architecture’; or you’ve never heard of ‘domain-driven design’, this isn’t the position for you.
Next level bug resolving skills. In fact, you’re so good at dealing with bugs you should probably be deployed on a mission to Klendathu.
