Frontend Engineers (m/f/x) (Hamburg)

XING, a New Work SE subsidiary, is the leading online business
network in German-speaking countries and supports its 16.5 million
members in working in line with their way of life and individual
preferences. Professionals from every industry connect with one
another, look and apply for jobs, and seek inspiration about the
latest trends in the world of work. Thanks to the broad news
portfolio, XING members can keep their finger on the pulse and
discuss the latest developments..

As an expanding social network, with a focus on bringing value to
our customers, the frontend is the visual interface between XING
and its users. All of our frontend applications are using a tech
stack that is based on React and an internally built open source
framework called Hops, that enables in-browser and server side
rendering including routing, state management and communication
with our backends. For this we are leveraging either Redux or
Apollo GraphQL.

XING is now looking to welcome talented frontend engineers at all
levels (from junior to senior) to join our 300 highly skilled,
deeply motivated and dedicated engineers and product developers
throughout our various locations in Europe (Hamburg, Barcelona,
Valencia, Porto, etc.), sharing a healthy culture of learning from
each other via pairing, communities of practice, joint hackweek
projects etc.
