Senior Web Engineer, International Growth (Berlin, Germany)
Getting together with real people in real life makes powerful things happen. Side hustles become careers, ideas become movements, and chance encounters become lifelong connections. Meetup brings people together to create thriving communities. Show up. Change lives.
We're looking for an engineer to be part of the team that is driving international growth. This will include localization of our product to provide a real, local user experience, as well as driving growth strategies for search engine optimization and social media. This is a fantastic opportunity to join our new International team in Berlin, Germany at a very early stage and play a key role in developing Meetup across the world.
Web engineers at Meetup do everything that's needed to get something live on our platform, from the interaction on the web to the APIs that power it. Meetup senior engineers demonstrate an ability to complete projects, provide guidance for technical problems, and lead by example and mentor other engineers on the team.
You're our ideal team member if you are:
- Someone with at least 3+ years' experience with React/Redux/Node.js
- Experienced with or are eager to learn strongly-typed functional languages
- In love with writing quality testable code and leaving the code base better than how you found it
- Ready to take on full ownership of the development lifecycle by designing, building, and operating applications
- Comfortable communicating with product managers, designers and other engineers to solve open-ended problems and roadmap solutions
- Driven by results at product, team, and individual levels
You would be working locally with your team in Berlin but remotely with Meetup HQ in NYC, so this would be a great fit for a candidate who is comfortable and effective working with others remotely, across different time zones, and in predominantly English.
