Frontend Engineer
DICE
Frontend Engineer
Live shows make us feel good. They’re a time to hang with our friends, discover new artists or lose ourselves on a dance floor. We’re on a mission to bring all of this to more fans, more often – and that’s where you come in.
We’re looking for a Frontend Engineer to join our Product team and help more fans get to shows they love.
At DICE, you’ll be part of the company that’s redefining live entertainment. It's a place where you can be yourself, influence the culture, and create work that you’re proud of.
About the role
Our only customer is the fan and you’ll build apps that give them a great experience when going to events. Our web apps are written mostly in React, using Redux to manage state. Some of our apps use Relay/Apollo to communicate with a GraphQL server. We stay up to date with new React features like using Hooks and the Context API.
Some more context: Our code is hosted in GitHub, which we use for pull requests and code reviews. Our pipelines are managed by Travis CI and each commit builds a Docker container. We spin up short term Kubernetes clusters with the new feature branch of the app you’re working on and other services so our QA team can test your feature in the entire stack. Then we merge the code and push it to the production cluster. That’s it :)
You’ll be
- Developing our ticketing and streaming products
- Working across the development lifecycle to improve and maintain our web apps
- Providing technical insights and timescale estimations
- Working with product managers, testers, engineers and designers
- Quickly building new concepts to test assumptions
You are
- Passionate, humble and talented
- A fan of music and culture
- Actively responsible
- Up-to-date with technologies and techniques, knowing when to use them
- Experienced at building large-scale web apps
You’ll need
- Proven experience with React
- Knowledge of JavaScript, HTML and CSS
- Experience in CDN and edge caching
- Strong understanding of accessibility and SEO
- Familiarity with browser testing and debugging
- Familiarity with GraphQL and GraphQL libraries like Relay or Apollo is a plus
- Familiarity with Javascript-based animation libraries like d3.js or paper.js is a plus
- Experience with web design is a plus

During the pandemic, we’ve learned that working from home can help us focus, but many of us are missing the buzz of the office. We’re still figuring out the best way for us all to work together in the future, and we’ll involve the whole team in any decisions we make.
Application process
Our process usually involves a quick chat on the phone, a portfolio review or task and a couple of interviews where you’ll meet the people you’ll work with. We’ll keep you fully informed along the way.
