Job description
Our client is a successful European design and development firm. They are building a new e-commerce platform and require a resource to assist in the final phase of development and product release. This role is open to Canadian or US candidates. Remote only. 3 months to start.

Skills & requirements
Things you NEED to bring:

• 4+ years Go

• 3+ years with modern Javascript library – ideally React

• 5+ years HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

• Significant experience building web applications

• Experience working with not completely ideal API libraries

• The ability to write Go but think about web apps like Rails developer would.

• The application *must* be available in at least two languages to start with (English and Norwegian), so we need someone who has experience with internationalization.

What you’ll be doing:

The job is to jump in and assist in the final stages of development and delivery of a new e-commerce platform.

• Review code with a view to improving performance and bug fixing

• Ensure all deliverables are in line with initial documentation

• Assist in development of any remaining features/functions

Development Environment:

Rails-inspired tech -- Turbolinks (for web an iOS), StimulusJS, Postgres as a primary datastore, and Redis to store sessions

For Go specific tech, we have our own partially complete internal web framework. We use go-pg as our ORM-ish library and have a fork of HTTPTreeMux as a router. We also have a fork of unrolled/render that we use as a view library.

For frontend tech, we use plain HTML and CSS -- no preprocessor. Our CSS codebase started with bass.css, and we've added extra functionality from there. Our only JS dependencies are Turbolinks, Stimulus, and the Google Maps API. We use webpack.

For external dependencies, we rely on ERP's API for pulling our customer's product data. ERP APIs are normally painful to work with, so any experience working with a less-than-perfect API is great to have
