JavaScript Developer (PT)

The Virtual Forge is an international company with offices in the UK, Portugal, UAE, Canada and the US. We are experts in designing and developing data driven software solutions for the cloud and we are currently looking for a talented Javascript Developer to join our team.

You will be working with a range of JavaScript technologies such as React, Vue and Node as part of our JavaScript Engineering team. You’ll work alongside members of the JavaScript Engineering team, as well as our UX/UI and Backend teams.

The Role:

Our JavaScript Developers work closely with the Design and UX team to ensure we offer the best user experience to our clients. They also work closely with our test team to ensure our high-quality standards are met.

The candidate should have good communication skills, and be able to communicate technical information and requirements in a clear manner to an audience of varying technical levels.

At The Virtual Forge we value candidates that like to build new systems and work with the latest technologies, but also find a challenge in understanding the intricacies of existing systems  and working to continually improve and develop existing code.
