Front-end Jobs nearSan Jose, CA

• You’d be developing custom WordPress sites using PHP, CSS, Javascript and more. We are looking for a skilled, experienced developer who can tackle coding custom sites from scratch as well as creating new features and functionality for sites that you can't get with any existing plugin.

• You'd be working with our team to address technical support tickets and client requests as they come in. Flexibility, problem solving, and team collaboration are key aspects of this responsibility.

• You’d be communicating with the team regularly. We use Slack for regular communication and Basecamp for project management. There are occasionally some video chats we'll need to do either via video chat.

JOB BENEFITS:

• You can work from anywhere. No moving for a job involved. If you’re happy where you are, stay there. If you’re unhappy, move somewhere new. This job will go with you. (If you want to spend a month working from the Italian countryside or in a Scottish pub, more power to you.)

• You decide what you want your hours to be for projects. For technical support, we do need someone who would be available standard East Coast time work hours (9am-ish to 6pm-ish). You will need to communicate with the team regularly.

• You get paid on a per project basis for larger projects and hourly for technical support work.

SKILLS & REQUIREMENTS:

You should have a solid understanding of Wordpress, SASS, CSS, PHP and Javascript. You should have experience coding Wordpress themes.

Other skills:

• You know how to work with Woocommerce.
• You're comfortable working with Advanced Custom Fields before.
• You understand how to work with cPanels, update databases directly, and are confident migrating websites to new hosts.
• You can troubleshoot when a site has been hacked or simply been broken by a client who has gone too far in code.

This job IS for you if:

• You believe the best code is clean, simple, and well-organized.
• You are detailed oriented and meticulous. You get letter spacing, fonts, and column widths right. And you’ll even make sure the site ends up with custom favicon.
• You get projects done on time (or early).
• You are honest and have no tolerance for drama.
• You like working on projects for soulful and creative entrepreneurs.
• You can handle a workload of at least 1-2 custom projects per month. Projects vary in length, taking anywhere between 20 and 50 hours (for a skilled developer), with some larger ones taking longer.
• You are comfortable using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop to gather information from designs for development.
• You can commit to the position for at least nine months (ideally, we'd love to have you with us long-term).

Our ideal candidate is a developer who has an exacting aesthetic eye and the ability to make things so intuitive that the non savvy user can feel comfortable editing.

This job IS NOT for you if:

• You are repeatedly late getting work done.
• You dislike or have problems with regular communication.
• You prefer to start out with a pre-made theme with page builders for website development.
• You often miss details.
• You think that a 28px margin is the same thing as a 25px margin. Or that Helvetica is the same thing as Open Sans.

How to know if you are a good fit?

You will have to:

• Have empathy;

• Understanding the position of others is critical. It is necessary to navigate through communication, mitigation and the culture

• Be independent;

• Yet know when to raise a point or ask for a clarification or escalate a potential issue

• Communicate;

• Speak your mind and expect others to. Engage in respectful and mindful conflict. Quality > quantity.

• Know your stuff and know what you don't know;

• No one is perfect but everyone can learn. Be humble enough to know your weaknesses. Be open minded and hard working enough to be able to fix them.

• Take constructive critics;

• Ask yourself "how to know if I'm wrong?". You may not, but not challenging your thinking is unhealthy. We challenge each other a lot @Scratchpay.

Our culture

We care about the human aspect of work and we expect others to. Excellence is also an important keyword @ Scratchpay. While everyone makes mistakes, we learn from them. We are conscious about efficiency and effectiveness in the positive way. We don't do things that bring low-to-no value short or long term. We also do hard things that bring a lot of value. Quality, attention to detail and respect are some of the traits you must have and expect others to have.

The good

• We are a team of dedicated, hard working, friendly individuals

• We move fast, sometimes break things with measure, we give a second chance

• We give constructive feedback, we challenge each other

• We are open-minded and we care for each other

• Everyone is striving towards excellence. Mediocrity isn't our cup of tea. But we always work hard to help those that are willing to get there!

The bad

• Everything goes fast and the ultimate goal is to move the business fast. There can be disconnects in the communication at times. We all need to navigate through this and push whenever it is critical to do so.

• We are open-minded but things need to be moving forward.

• We say what we have to. So expect to hear some unpleasant - but true - things sometimes. Don't hesitate to argue back - with respect - if you disagree.

• Like any startup, It can be a mess some days. You also will likely have to do things that aren't in your scope sometimes. Part of the fun, right? ;)

The most important is: We are always looking at improving. All the time, step by step. If you feel mediocre and don't see a path to improvement or can't listen to others' voice to, please do not apply.
