JavaScript Job: Node.js - Backend Developer (m-w-d)

At upsidecode, we constantly strive to create an environment that allows our employees to do the best work of their lives. We have a definite onboarding and career plan and encourage everyone to learn from others and share their knowledge.

Team events and get-togethers are much better done at other locations anyway. As we have high demands, we are looking for bright talents who want to develop and create great things with us.

Our benefits:

• Above-market salaries
• 100%-remote within Europe
• Defined onboarding process
• Career plan and regular feedback sessions (1-1 & PPR)
• Flexible work-hours and part-time models
• Team-events and regular get-togethers

Principles: Trust by Default - Ship to Learn - Own the Outcome - Anything is Possible - Practice Kindness
