Senior Web Fullstack Developer - 100% Remote Possible - Innovative Work Culture

ZAUBAR, a Berlin, Germany, based start-up in the field of Augmented Reality (time travel, actually) is looking for an experienced Vue/Nuxt.js and backend developer to join our team.

If you are searching for a cutting-edge area to apply your JS skills in, why not give AR a chance?

With WebAR technologies becoming more and more capable, we want to start developing for the web now, to be prepared when full Augmented Reality experiences can make the jump from phones to browsers.

We are not only looking for a person to implement this transition but also for someone to teach our existing engineers the secrets of the trade, to allow all of us to be able to work on the product, in the future.

What is this product I just mentioned?

Since its inception in late 2019, ZAUBAR has had the vision to establish a CMS & CRM platform for city tours, allowing Creators to replace what still boils down to printed pictures held up in front of participants.

With ZAUBAR, these pictures are digitized, accurately positioned at their place of origin and visualized in AR.

We found amazing partners over the past years to bring this technology to great use and we want to make it available to as many users as possible.

To support creators monetizing AR tours, ZAUBAR offers and constantly expands concepts such as scavenger hunts, Collectibles, web-based remote creation and vast AI-assisted workflows.

Ideally, our new colleague should bring experience with some or any one of them to know the ins and outs of implementation.

While we already consist of a team spread over Europe and the world, our main office is home to Berlin’s diverse suburb of Schöneberg.

We support, though not require, anyone interested to relocate to Berlin.

Tasks

• Creating exceptionally well-functioning front-end interfaces that are stunningly beautiful.

• Compilation and refinement of specifications and technical requirements based on the needs of the project, in collaboration with the team
• Testing the web applications in the most common combination of operating systems and browsers.
• Setting up the collection of user events to understand the usage of the deployed services
• Configuring the web applications for deployment both to staging and production environments, and keeping the internal documentation up-to-date with these configurations.
• Collaboration with designers to realize visual design intent also by exploring emerging technologies and industry trends and integrating them into the company's activities.

Requirements

• 4+ years of experience working with Javascript
• Experience in developing JavaScript-based web applications with Vue/Nuxt.js framework. At least one published, still available Nuxt.js project.

• Extensive knowledge of CSS3 and its different layout models
• Passion for design, UX and usability
• Focus on detail, not just for pixel-perfect web designs, but also for cross-browser compatibility and optimum rendering performance
• Effective interpersonal, communication, and collaboration skills. You enjoy teaching web technologies to a bunch of Unity developers.

Nice-to-haves include:

• A master’s degree in Computer Science or similar
• Experience with Three.js. We are building apps with cool, interactable 3D objects, with engaging animations.
• Experience working with SVG and Canvas elements
• Familiarity with TypeScript
