Your Profile

We’re looking for an a11y-loving, user-focused frontend developer to build and improve features for our 5 million users. 

At innn.it, we aim to lower the barriers to participation in democratic processes. We use React and Next.js, as well as tools like Figma, PostHog, and Chromatic. We give developers the resources and responsibility they need to find the best solutions and build features they truly care about. Sounds good? Check out the details!

Your Responsibilities

• Translate ideas into features. Whether based on detailed project briefs or quick conversations, you’ll develop ideas discussed by the team.
• Take ownership of tasks. From analysis to delivery, you’ll be responsible for ensuring each step is taken care of.
• Implementation. You’ll translate layouts into React/TypeScript code.
• Contribute to application design. As a small team, we have frequent discussions about what to build, so you won’t just write code but also contribute to design and architecture decisions.
• Document the solutions you create. Some of the things you will develop will be used by other teams, so everything must be documented in English in a clear way.
• Review code from colleagues. You’ll review code written by other developers, giving them meaningful feedback and sharing the knowledge (and learning from that, too!)
• Be open to diverse tasks. From changing the color of a button to defining the architecture of a system, you should be open to tasks of varying scope and complexity.
• A/B testing. You’ll run experiments on user flows, analyze results, and use insights to improve the user experience.

About You

• You may or may not have a degree in the field. You may have learned web development at university, at a coding bootcamp, through an online course or as a self-taught developer.
• You have three to five years of experience working with JavaScript and you’re familiar with TypeScript.
• You have experience with frontend frameworks like React and Next.js.
• You enjoy writing semantic HTML with accessibility best practices in mind.
• You know how to use Git and feel comfortable with Git workflows.
• You have an idea of deployment tools and processes.
• You’re interested in finding the best solutions for modern frontend development, great user experiences and SEO-optimized user interfaces.
• You know how to give meaningful feedback, share your knowledge with peers, and you’re comfortable reviewing colleagues’ work.
• You’re passionate about social change and believe that digital tools can be effective to empower people and create communities.
• You’re comfortable working in an English-speaking environment. Knowledge of German is a plus.

Bonus points:

• You’re familiar with CSS-in-JS (like Emotion), Storybook, and Chromatic.
• You have experience with A/B
