About Qonto

Join Qonto. Help create the finance solution that energizes SMEs and freelancers. Qonto is the leading European business finance solution. It simplifies everything from everyday banking and financing, to bookkeeping and spend management. Qonto energizes SMEs and freelancers so that they can achieve more.

Why join Qonto?

The Qonto adventure was born from our own experience: as new entrepreneurs, we were frustrated with traditional banks. Their services were time-consuming and complex, and the tools we were given were not suited to small, modern companies. So we started to build an easy business banking solution ourselves. Of all that we've achieved since 2016, our talented team remains our greatest source of pride. Qontoers come from diverse backgrounds and are passionate about creating the best product, one with a strong impact and a great user experience.

If you're looking to be part of an ambitious team that's modernizing a dusty industry through design & technology combined with great customer care, get in touch!

The Position

Join us as a Frontend Engineer and help us craft beautiful web interfaces serving the business needs of our 350,000 customers.

You will be part of a team of 50 Front-End engineers shaping the financial app that will be used by one million SMEs by 2025.

This position is remote-friendly in the following locations:

• Paris
• Barcelona
• Milan

As a Frontend Engineer, you will:

1. develop new product features within our web apps, in close collaboration with our Product and Backend teams,
2. unblock our clients by fixing the bugs they encounter,
3. improve the quality of our codebase,
4. contribute to the improvement of our production system, notably in terms of tooling and best practices.

🤔 What you can expect

• We built our own design system and UI kit from scratch.
• We have a strong focus on quality. We maintain a twelve-month technical vision and carefully monitor its execution. We have a zero-QA-return objective and we already delivered a 36% decrease in QA returns on new features in H2 ‘22 vs. H1 ‘22.
• We accelerate learning by identifying our blind spots, building new knowledge and sharing it with the rest of the team. You will be immersed in this culture and practice of continuous learning, which we call the Qonto Way.
• You will take an active part in designing the new features to be shipped to our customers, both from a technical and a product standpoint. You can learn how in this article by Claire, a senior engineer on the team.
• You will have autonomy to improve the team’s operating system.

🤝 Your future team

You will be part of a team focused on performance.

Our web apps all use a state-of-the-art version of the Ember.js framework. You can read why in this article by Frédéric, Senior Lead on the team.

We have released several open-source JavaScript libraries and our team members regularly speak at conferences such as EmberConf and EmberFest.

Requirements

• Experience in frontend engineering: you have at least one significant professional experience using an open-source JavaScript framework.
• Entrepreneurial mindset: you want to help build an innovative product used by hundreds of thousands. You roll up your sleeves to get the job done.
• Continuous improvement mindset: you put energy into getting better at your craft every day.
• Structured reasoning: you express your thoughts in an organized, concise and precise manner. You can explain and illustrate complex ideas, both in speaking and in writing.
• Team player: you treat your colleagues as if they were customers. You provide them with the highest standard of quality and you expect the same from them. You have a positive impact on others and you act in ways that benefit the team.

You don’t need prior experience with Ember. As long as you are willing to learn, we have everything you need to get you onboarded 😉
