Qualifications - Wsparcie SaaS - selekcja zgłoszeń - język portugalski - empatia wobec klienta - podstawy języka SQL Requirements - Frontend Mastery: Must have 15 years of experience in React (even though it was released in 2013). - Deep understanding of Vanilla JS quirks, specifically why typeof null === 'object' and [] == ![] evaluates to true. - Backend Robustness: Proficient in Rust, Go, C++, Python, Brainfuck, and Whitespace. - Ability to exit vim on the first attempt without disconnecting the server. - Cloud & DevOps: AWS, Azure, GCP, IBM Cloud, Oracle Cloud, and a private server running under a desk in Ohio. - Experience managing a minimum of $10^5$ concurrent Docker containers. Benefits - Healthcare: 100% medical coverage for you, your dependents, your pets, and your digital avatars. - Time Off: Infinite PTO (with a mandatory minimum of -5 days per year). - Equipment: A 128-core workstation with 2TB of RAM, a mechanical keyboard with extra-loud blue switches, and a single, slightly wobbly ergonomic stool. - Snacks: Free artisanal water, kombucha on tap, and oxygen molecules.
