Frontend Developer
The landscape for a developer in 2021 is constantly evolving. As a Lead Frontend Developer you will lead Genero into the future by exploring and validating new technologies as well as mentoring younger developers and sharing your knowledge of true and tested tools, languages and best practices. You can understand customer needs and translate them into requirements, architecture and code. You are a person that is able to pick up anything and understand it quickly. You can easily spot scope creep and can manage risk efficiently. You have the skillset and determination to master anything you need to. As a lead frontend developer you have a long history of producing code with high quality using best practices and care. You look back at what you have produced with pride and satisfaction and are eager to share with others the things you know and your ways of working.
Genero is looking for an ambitious and talented developer to deliver and grow as a part of our Dev & Design Business Unit. You also have the possibility to work remotely or at the offices in Helsinki or Pietarsaari. As a developer, you will help our versatile client organizations to reach their goals with a team of strategists, developers, ux and service designers, and growth hackers.
The most important things are that you are a team player and you have a passion for creating sustainable and loveable digital solutions. We believe that the best teams adapt with their new members and everyone builds their own position with their interests and skills.
Btw, Genero is a really nice place to work at (top position two years in a row in Great Place to Work 2019 and 2020) and people are super awesome. We have a fantastic atmosphere and we would like to get more people that contribute to that. Our goal is to become the best workplace in tech in the northern countries where people can work with truly inspiring things among friendly colleagues that help you reach your best potential.
