The Role
We are looking for a cutting-edge Front-End Developer to join our creative studio, building projects for all the major movie studios and primarily contributing to our Showtimes Platform. Ideally you will have minimum of 1 years experience working commercially as a developer.
We need someone who loves working on a long term, large scale product, but also likes to dabble in experimental coding and prototyping. Experience working alongside other coders is a huge bonus and you should be able to follow direction and adapt to a team dynamic quickly.
What You’ll Work On:
Showtimes Movie Platform:
You will be building out a variety of movie ticketing websites on our Showtimes Movie Platform. This platform enables us to build out dozens of movie websites each month, and we are constantly improving the diversity and creativity of these builds, as well as the actual product with which we build these sites.
Our platform gets 2.2 million visits a week and has 2 component parts, the all-movie destination (http://movies.powster.com) and the individual movie pages ex:(Star Wars, Ant-Man, The Martian, etc). This is a really exciting time to be joining the team as we are in the midst of launching a lot of new features and capabilities within our product and you will be able to contribute ideas to this product plan and help to build it out! You’ll be working on building out tons of exciting new movie websites, developing the showtimes platform further, and taking it to the next level for major movie studios internationally.
Your Skills:
You should have a keen interest in keeping up to date with modern coding practises, particularly with respect to mobile / responsive design. Our platform is a web-app built using React, webpack and node.js. For all of our devs, a love for JavaScript is essential.

About Powster:
We are a creative agency based out of the London Fields area in Hackney, with a solid team of 15 people. Our team works towards two main streams of output:
We like to think that anything is possible when pitching, and if we haven’t done it before we’ll pull together, work it out and make it happen. This comes from having a drive to make the unseen! When bolstered by the very diverse and strong team we can adapt to anything thrown at it, from technical, interactive builds to large scale video productions.
We’ve got awesome perks such as flexible working hours, a roomy and plant-ridden studio, with deskbeers, table tennis, a private cinema, drinks fridge, roof terrace and most importantly a friendly and fun team. We also get invites and tickets to movie screenings and events, and even some of the biggest premieres.
