Frontend Software Engineer

Percona is a respected thought leader in the open source community. We provide services and software for MySQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL and Maria DB to open source users globally.

Percona is remote-first and globally dispersed; we have 250 people in almost 40 countries. We offer a collaborative, highly-engaged culture where your ideas are welcome and your voice is heard. The growth and development of our staff is a top priority; we provide funding for training, certifications, conferences and more.

Discover what it means to work with some of the smartest people in the industry, who also know how to have fun and are always willing to lend a helping hand. We offer flexible hours, the ability to work remotely and the amazing experience of working with a multinational team of experts.

You should find these keywords familiar and very appealing: React.js, AngularJS, JavaScript, HTML5, Bootstrap, JSON, CSS/LESS, Webpack, UX,  data visualization. This position is mostly web frontend programming but understanding some Go will help you in a better understanding of the backend of our product. As an open source company, we are trying to use the power of existing open source projects and also make our contribution to some popular repositories. The work is challenging, but that’s why it’s also fun and rewarding!

What You Will Do

• • We are looking for a user experience focused developer to help present complex infrastructure management capabilities to our users in an easy to understand but feature-rich manner.  You will build interfaces that are capable of managing single nodes all the way to thousands of systems so being able to think both large and small scale will be critical.  Our PMM product has both a monitoring and management component, not to mention a “lite” cloud-based component to it so you’ll need to work across team boundaries to ensure that our software works together to make the users lives easier.

What Will Make You Stand Out
