Senior UI Engineer - ReactJS
Showcase IDX
About The Opportunity
If you want the next phase of your career to be something truly transformative for you and your organization, you need to think beyond what day 1 at your new job looks like.
We're building the next generation of our residential real estate experience, used by millions of home buyers as they work with 61,000+ real estate agents to turn their housing dreams into reality. Buying a home can be hard, stressful, and confusing at times. With your help, we will modernize how consumers and agents work together to buy and sell homes. Just being real, an opportunity like this does not come around very often. With your help, our site will become one of the top real estate search portals in the United States & Canada.
eXp World Holdings, Inc (NASDAQ: EXPI) acquired the Showcase IDX product and team in August 2020, and the entire founder-led startup team has eagerly stayed on board to tackle this ambitious goal on this highly visible project. Showcase IDX remains a separate entity from eXp, so you'll enjoy a fast-paced startup environment backed by a large public company without the annoying parts of each. Our team is fully-remote and at the beginning of a big new mission, as we look to redefine how people find and buy homes on a national and eventually international scale.

It's important to us that work is as enjoyable and drama-free as possible. Not every day will be sunshine and rainbows, but we've got each other's backs, and come together to help each other when we're unsure, stuck, or facing adversity. We like making well-reasoned decisions and making them quickly. We don't particularly like too many meetings, but we love working together to figure things out. We're laid back with each other, don't take ourselves too seriously, and laugh (probably more than we should), but we ship awesome, well-documented, and tested code, often.
Our team is made up of experienced, talented people who see opportunities where others may not. We understand that innovation comes from experience, experimentation, iteration, taking smart risks, and rejecting the idea that the status quo is the only or best way to solve a problem. You'll be challenged by big ideas, and have the opportunity to influence a product that truly impacts one of the biggest decisions in people's lives in very real ways.
We are picky about our code. We want our codebase to be readable, maintainable, performant, reliable, and well-tested. We encourage use of language features to make code more readable, not overly clever. We aggressively, but nicely, code-review each other. We learn from each other, and push each other to get better.
We believe that delivering value outweighs how many hours you work or where you work. In our eyes, the best performance and outcomes come from focusing on our personal and team growth and development. We provide a flexible work schedule, generous vacation, a relaxed work environment, and opportunities for professional growth and development. You'll never be asked to come into an office.
