Description

ClearPoint is a mission driven organization, and our software and team are the best in the business. We strive to partner with our customers to make them successful. Our software tool makes strategic planning and management reporting simple and efficient so that our customers can focus on making better decisions. We are looking for a junior developer who can help us build and maintain a React frontend. The frontend for our enterprise strategy reporting application.

Are you a fast learner? Are you detail oriented and independent? Are you attracted to the idea of remote work where you are responsible and efficient? Do you understand how to write, read, and troubleshoot tests? Are you proficient at CSS? Do you LOVE React Hooks? If so, get in touch. We could be friends. We are looking for a creative problem solver. A programmer who can turn business requirements into clean code.

People with “nontraditional” (i.e., not CS) backgrounds often thrive here. (Although we love CS majors, too.) Practical skills are critical. With a small team, we manage to meet the demands of a fast-growing client base. We take this stuff very seriously! We’re going to stay a small team because we need to be agile. We’re not looking to hire 10 average people — we’re looking for the one exceptional one. Only candidates who live and work in the USA will be considered.

Responsibilities

• Create reusable and maintainable code with React hooks and components
• Build front-end tests and ensuring test coverage
• Develop new user-facing features using React.js
• Integrate third party components with main application (React and non-React based libraries)
• Translate designs and wireframes into high quality code

To be considered, please submit a resume and cover letter. Highlight your skills, experience, and interests. Tell us your thinking, strategies, and ideas.

So, read this posting carefully, visit our website, learn about us and what we do, and then apply.

We may not respond to everyone, but we will look at every application. As busy as we are, finding the right person is critical to our success. If you could be a match, get ready for a set of phone interviews and then we’ll find a way to meet you in person. We needed someone yesterday, so, if you are great, expect this process to move quickly.
