At Qriously, we are building a new research platform which we believe is bigger, faster, and more accurate than any other. With our platform we can ask questions anywhere in the world and within seconds start getting answers from thousands of people.
Current Tech Stack ...
- Backend : Java / Spring / Kafka / Docker / AWS
- Front-end : Typescript / React / Redux
If you're interested in building the next-generation of survey and research tools then we'd love to hear from you. We have 3 open positions ...
At Qriously we are building a next-generation research platform which we believe is bigger, faster, and more accurate than any other.
We are inquisitive people and we love asking questions - with our platform we can ask questions anywhere in the world and within seconds start getting answers from thousands of people. We do this by serving our questions to smart phones via mobile-apps, meaning we can reach hundreds of millions of people. Our methods are proven and can be applied to different research fields including political polling, consumer insight surveys and campaign effectiveness monitoring.
We are looking for a Senior Front-End Engineer to build the next versions of our mobile surveys (which are seen by millions of people every day!), our new data dashboards and to also shape the future of our front-end architecture. Our front-end tech stack is currently uses React, ES6 and flow.
Some of the other benefits we offer include:
- Flexible working times / working from home
- Generous holiday allowance
- Choose your own kit
- Free Gym Membership
- Free Books (we like reading!)
- A glimpse into the future, before anyone else knows about it
I agree we had a reasonably good deal - but the net contributions weren't massively different from other large nations (France, Germany, Italy) [1]. In my view that's very different from leaching.
> When I am renting an apartment, and I need to pay for something that needs repair, I do not ask for money back whenever I leave. There may be some assets that you have a right to claim a stake in, though. There are also some open bills. That is a matter of exit negotiations.
I don't think anyone sensible would be suggesting the EU refund all the contributions made whilst we were members. As for negotiations, I wouldn't fancy being a horse in the near future.
> By the way, who is paying for the financial burden that the negotiations themselves are going to put in the EU? I hope that is also a matter of negotiations, and since it is a UK decision to leave (which we respect), the UK must contribute specially to those costs.
The EU itself devised the mechanism for leaving the EU so this should have probably been specified at the time - if it wasn't then it probably wasn't a great piece of legislation.
> For you ... and for the EU.
Yes, I only mentioned the UK as I imagine the EU isn't going to bend massively so it will be more a case of whether the UK wishes to agree to certain terms set out by the EU rather than crafting a UK-specific deal. Though I guess we'll find out.
Well yes, outstanding bills should be paid. But I don't think the UK has been leaching, in fact the UK has been a net contributor to the EU for a long period of time [1]. As we are leaving the EU will we in some way get to reclaim some of the assets paid for over the period of time? Do we get the roof of the parliament in Strasbourg?
Until we've actually left, we are bound by the rules of the EU which may include this. And given the current alignment of rules I wouldn't imagine it would be a huge burden. Once we've left, well paying associated costs may be a sensible thing to do, but that's for us to decide!
