Freeway is a revolutionary crypto platform on a mission to make finance more rewarding for all. Combining the best of traditional finance with the best of decentralised finance, Freeway is building a new financial system from the ground up.

Do you want to be part of our visionary team, helping to build a future fintech unicorn that will shape the future of finance by making it fairer and more accessible for all?

We are seeking a skilled React.js developer to join the Freeway Tech Team.

You will have in-depth knowledge of — and IRL experience in — TypeScript, JavaScript and React. You will be joining our A-Team and should have the best front-end coding skills among your peers to back up your membership into the team. We expect calm under pressure and a “do whatever it takes” mentality — both critical attributes in our quickly-evolving industry.

You will have a solid understanding of how modern applications take advantage of React to streamline development and provide slick, intuitive experiences for users across all platforms.

You will be collaborating with our entire Tech Team on a regular basis. You’re a team player who enjoys collaboration but you can also be relied upon to solve problems and build solutions independently when needed. You will work in partnership with other front-end developers and will play a critical role in developing Freeway apps for the Web. You will be expected to architect and execute solutions that are elegant, fast and sustainable.

You will also be responsible for profiling and improving front-end performance and documenting our front-end codebase on a daily basis. We need to move fast but not at the expense of performance or code readability.

Most importantly, you are active in crypto, know it’s the future and want to be part of the revolution. This is an opportunity to help shape a revolutionary fintech brand that is set to take the industry by storm.
