Associate Software Engineers at OutThink contribute to building highly visual graphical
online experiences that must look stunning and operate smoothly to produce a seamless

learn fast from your more experienced colleagues. You will be exposed to some of the
latest Web, SaaS and Artificial Intelligence technologies.
What you'll do

Your background
First and foremost, a great attitude. We’re pioneering on new frontiers. You’ve got
the right attitude towards a sense of urgency, risk and uncertainty about the future
that comes with working at an early-stage scale-up. You’ll be self-managing,
self-motivated. This is an opportunity to be involved in an exciting journey and be a
core foundational member of engineering at OutThink.
Proven academic or other excellence. You have a strong educational foundation and
can demonstrate a track record of exceptional performance - whether that be
academics, sport, professional, or another domain of interest.
Collaborative working style. We value getting things done over rigid processes so
you will work well with others, knowing when to get consensus and when to push for
closure with decisiveness. You’re an effective team player with excellent
interpersonal and communication skills. You’re able to work collaboratively in diverse
and cross-functional teams. You’ll also have proficiency in the English language,
both written and verbal.
We’ll also look to you to bring the following to the table:
Excellent HTML and CSS skills.
Experience with developing cross-browser and cross-platform compatible
solutions.
Experience working with version control systems, such as GitHub.
Hands-on experience with JavaScript frameworks, particularly React, and
familiarity with the latest ECMA versions.
Good analytical and problem-solving skills.
A positive and proactive attitude with strong initiative, team-working skills, and
the ability to learn quickly.
Good communication skills, with the ability to communicate in English in all
forms.
Ability to learn new processes and concepts fast with a demonstrated sense
of curiosity.
Intrinsic drive and motivation to build a ‘world first’ and share our start-up
vision.
Desirable additional skills:

compliance.
An understanding of globalization, including developing code for audiences in
a wide variety of languages and cultures.
Any experience with a startup, working with a SaaS Product, developing
games, or working with eLearning solutions would be an advantage.
