Fullstack Developer

Job Description

Are you an experienced fullstack developer seeking an exciting opportunity? Look no further! Our app already has over +5 million downloads and our goal is to keep growing quickly and steadily.

Once Upon is a modern and flexible place to work, in terms of technology as well as methodology. We offer an open and learning culture where everyone has the freedom to explore, innovate and develop within their fields. Working with a team of more than 18 highly skilled developers will give you the chance to share your knowledge and expertise, but also to gain new skills, as well as bounce out-of-the-box ideas with open-minded peers.

About the role

Our Product department consists of around 30 colleagues. We work in platform independent teams, where each of the teams has all the competencies required for the development and maintenance of a specific value chain. Today, we have four autonomous product teams.

You will be part of a team consisting of developers, experienced designer, UX-writer and product owner. Working alongside your fellow developers in a hypothesis-driven and agile process, you'll play a key role in maintaining and enhancing Once Upon's product offerings.

What you’ll do:

• Build and maintain scalable solutions
  
• Build integrations between systems
  
• Continuously monitor, test and optimize implementations
  
• Deliver code that is testable and easy to maintain
  
• Work closely in cross-functional teams, for example with colleagues in Sustainability, Supply Chain and Customer Care
  
• Work sprint-based in an agile environment that promotes learning and development
  

Your background

We are looking for someone with extensive experience in fullstack development, and a genuine interest in back-end development. You should also have experience writing testable and easy-to-read code in Typescript. To truly thrive with us, we believe that you are a person who likes to work in an agile development process. You probably have a degree in computer science or equivalent.

Required experience in:

• React Native
  
• React
  
• Typescript / Javascript
  
• Node.js
  
• AWS
• Serverless

It is a plus if you also have experience in:

• Firebase
  
• Automatic tests
  
• GIT
  
• AI / Machine learning
  
• CI / CD
  
• Product Development
  

Who you are

You are a person who genuinely enjoys working closely across teams and departments, and thrives when collaborating with others to achieve results. In addition, you are an innovative thinker, with an open mind to new ideas. You are also detail-oriented. Self motivation and problem solving skills come easy to you. You are a person who sees possibilities where others see obstacles.

Working at Once Upon

Our app was created to help people save their favorite moments in an easy and fun way, to make everyone’s memories shine. And that’s how we want our workplace to be too – life (and work) at Once Upon should definitely be filled with happiness. Because happiness is the key to success, not the other way around. Right?

Our teams work in close collaboration using agile and hypothesis driven work methods to reach common goals and ambitions. Currently, in addition to our photo books and photo prints, we are looking at developing and maintaining new features and services, which you as a developer would be highly involved in. This means you will have a lot of influence over the product’s future development from a technical aspect. Curious to learn more? Here you can read all about our Tech-stack.

We are in no way static in the way we are organized. Curiosity to learn new things is what guides each person’s development. Learning during working hours is something we’re passionate about - we encourage everything from reading books, listening to pods, or taking courses, whatever you need to help you grow. This flexible mindset not only affects how we do things, but also where and when we do them. Here you can read the story behind our webapp – which is a great example of how we do things at Once Upon.

Location

This role is located at our headquarters in Skellefteå or at one of our sites in Piteå, Umeå, Örnsköldsvik or our office in Stockholm. While we offer remote flexibility, we truly value the creativity and sense of community that come from meeting face-to-face with colleagues at the office or on-site.
