Senior Frontend Engineer - EY Tech.Collective

Location: Frederiksberg

Other locations: Primary Location Only

Salary: Competitive

Date: Aug 30, 2024

Job description
Requisition ID: 1536142

At the EY Tech.Collective, you will be building tax and law software products for increased efficiency, quality, and joy.

We help thousands of clients with services such as producing correct and compliant tax filings, and consulting multinational companies on how to navigate the international tax landscape.

To do those jobs with the highest of degree of accuracy and efficiency, smooth processes and great software play key roles.

We operate across the Nordics (DK, FI, SE, NO) with a small, flat, and informal organisation of ~30 engineers, designers, researchers, and PMs. In a distributed setup across all countries where we work from home and offices depending on preferences and needs.

Tax? Yes, tax filings and tax law are the domains we design and build for, so having an interest in those areas would be good. Actual experience and domain knowledge is of course a plus, but certainly not a requirement. It’s a pretty small Venn diagram of senior engineers who also have professional tax experience.

Above all, we value working with good all-round people. People who are both highly specialised but are capable collaborating across disciplines.

About you

As a senior frontend engineer, you will be entrusted with crafting elegant and responsive user interfaces across several business-critical products.

As a master of your craft, you will write beautiful and fast JS/TS and for both React apps. Code that is well-tested, documented, optimised for speed, and easy to maintain.

You have honed those skills over the years by working on complex applications in cross-functional product teams, where you have shown yourself as a wonderful collaborator.

You have likely also done many code reviews and taken initiative to question decisions made by people more senior in the company than yourself. And challenged product decisions that didn’t make sense to you.

If that sounds like you, we should talk. In the meantime, here’s more information about the work and our team.

Your key responsibilities

• Solving complicated problems together with likeminded people.
• Close collaboration with designers, product managers, and fellow engineers.
• Spending time, occasionally, with users and user researchers to understand problems in detail.
• Working across a range of products and problem spaces.
• Freedom to work remotely or in our Copenhagen or Stockholm office.

Skills and attributes for success

We are looking for a good coder and a great colleague. These are the most important things that should characterise you.

To qualify for the role, you should have

• A true love for software and a strong believes in how software can help people.
• Proficiency in modern JS frameworks such as React and have worked on multiple mission-critical applications.
• An eye for aesthetics and UI quality.
• A positive attitude towards Typescript and various test frameworks.
• Experience in working with service-based architectures.
• Experience with continuous deployment pipelines.
• Easy access to Copenhagen, Helsinki, or Stockholm. You can work remotely most of the time, but we meet up in person weekly.
• Really good English speaking and writing skills. That’s our work language.
• An interest in tax law.

What we look for

We obliviously want you to be a good coder, but we believe that a senior engineer is so much more than that. We are looking for a colleague who is…

• A real craftsperson and a stickler for details.
• Delightful to be around.
• A clear communicator.
• Supportive and helpful.
• Quick to solve problems.
• Questioning ideas and decisions before committing.
• Eager to learn.

What we offer

• A tech product team: Tech Collective as a unit operates mostly product- and user-driven, even though we are situated within a large consultancy organisation.
• Direct access to users: Your work matters to people who are quite literally right next to you, for when you want direct feedback or input.
• Good food and good times: We take good care of the people who dedicate their working hours to our cause.
• Diverse and inclusive culture: You’ll be embraced for who you are and empowered to use your voice to help others find theirs.
