Would you like to join a young technology company with a  purpose? How about a completely 100% flexible work environment? Our technology is revolutionizing the manufacturing industry by empowering factory workers whilst saving some trees at the same time 🌴  We are all about helping manufacturing enterprises crowdsource their knowledge from the factory floor with a bottom-up approach. A mantra that also lives strong within SwipeGuide!

We are now searching for another Senior Fullstack Engineer (you'd be our 7th member!). Working with Sue our CTO, Vlad (Tech Lead) and the other devs and well...the whole of Swipeguide, you will be jumping to the deep-end to help manufacturers digitalise their worker instructions! You'll play a key part in an agile development team whilst we continue to scale and you'll help shape and grow the engineering team.

Stack: We need a true full stacker to help us round out the team, DevOps chops = useful (as is Data knowledge)! NodeJs, React, React Native, Node.js, GraphQL, Postgresql, Lambda, RDS, Redshift, AWS, Docker, Jenkins, Typescript.

WHO ARE WE?

We are Swipeguide. We are on a mission to reduce waste, spare resources for better use, and save the world from useless paper instructions. Imagine working on a busy production line, and you have to rely upon outdated, inadequate work instructions. PDF and paper instructions are a thing of the past, so we're developing simple, intuitive cloud software to empower factory teams to perform better in their jobs and scale knowledge with digital standard work. Our Swipeguide platform enables global companies like Coca-Cola, Heineken, and PepsiCo to build and share visual step-by-step digital work instructions with their workforce on any device. And yes, it also feels good to enable them to use less paper and save the trees🌳! We all know that a digital future is unavoidable, and we're providing the software essential for digital transformation in manufacturing. And it's working. We had five people in 2016 and today, we have thirty Swipees, 100,000+ platform users in 89 countries worldwide, and an inclusive, continuously improving culture.
