Front-End Engineer and UX Designer LATERPAY - Munich, Germany (fulltime, remote work possible)
UX DESIGNER
We are looking for a full-time front-end UX designer who will take care of our HTML5/JavaScript based clients for desktop browsers, tablets and mobile.
You should have a strong portfolio of work and have general knowledge of the current state-of-the-art in web user experience and design. We are currently revamping our user experience completely.
We are looking for a:
- well organized, self motivated individual who is a
- great communicator in written and spoken English and who is
- dedicated to constant iterative improvement
UX design in the payment space is governed by contractual and legal limitations, so creating great designs that incorporate such limitations should be your strong suit. We are looking for somebody who can think outside of the box while simultaneously creating designs that keep all of the obligations in mind.
Your job will be to improve designs across all of our internet-facing systems, create new, beautiful device-specific payment experiences and then work with front-end engineers to get them implemented and deployed.
FRONT-END ENGINEER
LaterPay is creating a HTML5, JavaScript, JSON/REST based, secure payment experience.
We are looking for a full-time front-end engineer with deep knowledge, experience any a keen interest in
- HTML(5),
- CSS (based around purecss.io and Stylus)
- JavaScript (YUI and/or jQuery), because that's what our plug-ins are based around and
- JavaScript application libraries like React.js
- strong opinions about user experience and great code with high maintainability
- experience with Django and Python is a plus as that is our server-side stack
- automated testing
A dedication to improving the whole user journey is deeply ingrained into our company by now.
LaterPay employs 17 people from 8 countries. We have an office in Munich where we meet up roughly every 6 weeks. We offer remote work, competitive salaries and a great team.
The one thing that YUI does better than any other library is isolation. You can have multiple versions of YUI in the same page, each sandboxed against each other. That means that if you deliver JavaScript for other developers to include in their pages, YUI is an awesome framework or even the only real option. Thanks to YUI Loader it's even self-repairing. jQuery's noConflict is a far cry from that.
Can any if the other libraries mentioned here (especially the newer ones like React and EmberJS) provide the same thing?
When I read threads like this and I see pages like polygon.com that pull in tens if not hundreds of external JavaScript resources, I always think that the YUI sandbox model is still 5 years ahead of the status quo in other libraries.
Again, does anyone know here of alternatives for sandboxing?
