Frontend Engineer (Fully Remote)
Omnipresent, Brazil
Job Description
Remote work is one of the great equalisers of our time, allowing people to secure employment opportunities from companies around the world, no matter where they were born or where they live.
Yet, at a time when remote work is exploding, most companies are finding it too complex, costly and time consuming to employ workers internationally. At Omnipresent, we’re centralising this complexity and providing our clients, and their remote workers, with a simplified, cost effective and legally compliant employment experience. With a network of legal entities across the world, coupled with an automation-focused tech platform, we’re building the premier global employment-as-a-service offering on the market.
Omnipresent is looking for experienced Frontend engineers to help bring our customer and internal facing OmniPlatform to life. We are solving an incredibly complex problem and need the customer interface to be beautiful and usable. This involves building a highly performant frontend application that makes it easy for our clients and their employees to understand the complex, country specific data generated by our mesh of backend services.
Your role
You would be joining a small team of Senior engineers, who work cross-functionally with Product and Design to build the OmniPlatform and support our customers' needs. We write our tests first, and know that delivering quickly requires excellent tooling and ongoing attention to the health of the codebase
Feature development, technical improvements and tooling are all first class citizens when we prioritize. Our engineers have an active voice in planning work, make smart trade-offs between short and long term value, and can demonstrate how the work they want to do will benefit our customers later.
