We're on a mission to delete paper cups and we're looking for...
Junior Software Developer
hours: full-time
location: remote (talk to us if you need somewhere to work outside your home)
number of vacancies: 1
size of company: 1-10 employees
Delete Cups plans to consign disposable coffee cups to the past, and we need a full-time software developer to help us.
Who Are We?
We’re an early-stage startup. Our mission is to help independent cafes who want to stop using disposable cups. With our product, they can instead offer their customers reusable cups in exchange for a small deposit. The deposit is automatically returned when the customer drops the cup into one of our smart bins.
The product consists of a web service, some iOS/Android apps, a pair of Java programs written for the Banana Pi, and some RFID hardware.
What’s the Job?
You’ll be among our first employees and you’re coming in at the prototype stage. Some bits are already working, some bits still need to be written. Nothing has been tested in the wild. You’ll be writing for Banana Pi, Android and Linux. There’s a Heroku web service at the back end, and there’s physical hardware that will sit in cafes. All the software lives on GitHub. You’ll be working remotely and keeping in touch regularly using instant messaging and phone calls. You’ll identify self-contained tasks that can be farmed out on Upwork, and manage them. You choose your hours and they can vary if you like. We will respect your downtime.
Who Do We Need?
We don’t expect you to be familiar with any of the tech listed above. If you’re a red-hot coder, you’ll quickly pick it up. We need someone who believes in clean code, good test coverage and lots of communication. We’re feminist, anti-racist, queer-friendly and open to neuro-diverse applicants.
