Front-End Javascript Engineer (React)

A big hello from the team at Compuco!

At Compuco we empower socially responsible organisations with the digital tools they need to build a better world.

We work with charities across their digital stack helping them to rebuild their processes using flexible open source tools. We help organisations reimagine the way they work so they can focus on impact.

We're looking for an experienced React developer to join our growing team and play a key role in building innovative digital tools for charities and non-profit organisations. Your work will directly contribute to empowering these groups to make a positive impact on the world.

You would be joining one of the Compuco product teams, being a part of product decisions, from inception through to release. You will use the latest technologies and will have responsibility to make architectural and technical decisions on the future direction of new platforms that will have significant impact. 

The platforms we build are business processes focussed for the not-for-profit sector, so expect to be working on functionality to help support e-commerce, marketing and payment processing but with a not-for-profit fundraising twist.

In our collaborative engineering teams, you'll have the opportunity to contribute to technical decisions, work alongside talented developers, and learn from each other. We encourage open communication and rotate responsibilities to foster a culture of continuous improvement.

As a distributed company with an HQ in London and team members from all around the world, one of the things that makes working at Compuco special is the chance to meet and learn from people from an amazing array of nationalities and cultures. We’re extremely proud of the way we work and the open culture we have developed.
