Frontend Software Engineer
Job Description
Workshop is looking for a driven frontend software engineer to help develop and design our software solutions. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with 2-5 years of experience building software and wants to be part of an exciting software-as-a-service (SaaS) business. We are prioritizing candidates that are local to the Midwest, but we're open to anyone within 1 hour of CST.
As a Frontend Software Engineer, you will:
- Work closely with our product & design team to translate and execute product vision into scalable product.
- Be a stakeholder in engineering and product strategy -- this isn’t just another place to knock down story points and tickets -- you’ll have meaningful and direct ownership in your work.
- Have the autonomy to ship code to production regularly and frequently.
- Develop tested, scalable core product features that are seamlessly integrated with our API driven frontend.
- Own the technical direction on key roadmap projects for the team.
To be successful at this position, you’ll need:

- Be detail-oriented. We view product excellence as a north star -- We’re only successful when our users successfully use Workshop and care deeply about the end-to-end user experience.
- Strong understanding of modern software development methodologies and their best practices
- Deep knowledge and experience of object oriented programming in JavaScript frameworks like Vue or React. Deep experience with Vue is preferred -- we use Vue to power our frontend platform (and we use Ruby on Rails on the frontend).
- Experience with SQL database, schema, and query design and optimization. We’re big fans of PostgreSQL.
- Care for web performance/optimization and treat performance as a feature.
- Interest or experience in securing web applications is a plus.
Bonus points if you:
- Have a deep knowledge and experience of front-end development using modern JavaScript frameworks like Vue/React/Angular. (Our primary technologies are Vue and Rails).
Compensation and benefits:
