About The Position

Spate is looking for an experienced full stack developer to help accelerate the development of our core product: a browser-based consumer behavior analytics dashboard.

This is a full time contract position. Our company works on EST timezone. For this role, you must be flexible enough to have a 4 hour overlap within our working hours of 9am - 5pm EST.

About Spate

Spate is your machine intelligence solution for finding the next big consumer trend.

Spate is a Y Combinator-backed company, founded by two ex-Googlers Yarden Horwitz and Olivier Zimmer who started Google's Trendspotting division and spotted trends such as face masks, turmeric and cold brew (ie Google Skin Care Trends Report, Google Food Trends Report).

How do we do this? We tap into publicly available consumer data (anonymous and aggregated) to identify exciting shifts in consumer behavior.

Who We're Looking For

Will independently build, and own, full features and components of our 5-year-old full stack application
Brings a nuanced sense of UI/UX design principles and attention to detail when collaborating with our design team
Will tenaciously chase and resolve frontend issues across different modern browsers and devices
Will meaningfully improve our software development practice and process. For example, by improving our tooling, refactoring and cleaning up the code base, adding tests, iterating on process, or in any other relevant ways
