OkCupid is looking to hire a Software Engineer for our Web team!

What’s it like to be a Web Engineer at OkCupid

The OkCupid Web Team is responsible for building features that help connect millions of users every day. Because our team size is so tiny, each of us has full ownership of elements from ideation to deployment. We work closely with other engineering and product teams across the company to figure out the best ways to help people find meaningful relationships.

As a new member of our team,

you will help us continue building beautiful and performant user interfaces and shaping the OkCupid product.

Some cool things the web team has done this year:

Implemented the next generation of OkCupid’s API, a Node-based GraphQL system utilizing the Apollo platform

Built out our CI/CD pipeline to automate deployments across our different repositories

We created a new system for internationalizing questions. Should “Are you willing to pay extra for guac?” be shown to everyone in the world? We don’t think so either.

What you’ll be doing:

Build interactive and intuitive UIs in React that connect millions of users

Contribute to creating components and APIs for OkCupid’s frontend libraries

Continually improving our tech stack

Engineer beautiful and performant user interfaces

Participate in the conceptualization and execution of product features

Contribute to the growth and success of other members of the team

Enjoy building UIs with ES6, webpack, React, Redux and Sass

Have a firm grasp of modern JavaScript and CSS

Have a high bar for clean, readable, and testable code

Care deeply about performance, accessibility, and the experience of our users

Feel strongly about how a webpage should look and feel

Have experience in writing unit and automated tests
