davidjgraph·Aug 1, 2017
Worldwide, REMOTE, Full time, $100k-$170k. Senior software engineer on https://www.draw.io We're a small, all engineering team looking for a strong developer with experience building complex web apps in Vanilla JS. You will need to be a strong starter and able to work effectively in a remote team (no offices here). Everything you produce will be open source, https://www.github.com/jgraph/draw.io. We're 7 digit annual revenue from licensing the tech (much of this is profit) and have no external investment or debt. There's no real hierarchy in the team, no performance reviews and the rest of the crap that bored commercial folks invent. But you will be expected to deliver high quality code, well tested with heavy attention to detail. We don't do roadmaps, either, it's ready when it's ready. Timezone-wise, we're all central and Western Europe

. The majority of your working day needs to overlap ours. We're not saying what time difference is the limit, but as you go past +/- 4 GMT, you'd need to be thinking about moving your working day hours to work here. Apply with CV to jobs@jgraph.com
