React jobs at OpenTable

OpenTable

At OpenTable, we deliver creative products through rapid, continuous development. Millions of diners and thousands of restaurants around the globe use our products. If a meaningful and challenging engineering environment excites you, we'd like to meet you. Bonus points if you love restaurants.

Our engineers adapt quickly, release frequently, and automate as much as possible. We truly believe in automated testing to help maintain our quality and velocity. Sometimes we break things, but thats OK; we learn from it. Is your GitHub profile a little thin? You’ll have a chance to improve it.

Description

We're a small team currently scaling the OpenTable CRM product to ~30x the current user base. We have some fun and exciting problems to solve, and we’re looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer who can jump right in and make an immediate impact. Work is pretty varied here. One day you might be working hard to convert/refactor portions of our legacy codebase from CoffeeScript to ES6. The next you may be implementing major UI/X improvements to our product via collaboration with OT designers. We work hard and write a lot of code during our regular work day, but we know how to unplug at the end of the day. We’re more passionate about people who own their work and deliver consistently than we are on the number of hours you put in.
