About the team:
You will be part of a small, cross-functional, autonomous, distributed team across Europe and Asia in charge of one of the most important components in our app, thus being reliant on by a lot of other functional teams and integral to showcasing their work. You will have shared time for collaborative activities such as planning, retros, stand-ups, and brainstorming sessions. Some interesting challenges the teams face are implementing new technologies such as AI, for multiple platforms, and dozens of millions of users. You will be working alongside a team of experienced engineers with high quality mentorship support and help drive you to success, enabling you to become a valuable member of the team and stand on your own. You will use a broad and modern tech stack with:
Programming Language: We use TypeScript for Frontend. Our backend services are written in Kotlin.
Frameworks and Libraries: We use React/Redux and WebAssembly to compile our Swift core logic.
Monitoring and Logging: We are currently using Datadog for monitoring and logging. Metrics are collected across our agents, taken from the logs using metric filters, and updated directly from lambda function or the application.
Infrastructure-as-Code: Most of our infrastructure is written with Terraform.
CI/CD: We currently use GitHub Actions for CI, and ArgoCD for CD.
Deployments: We have multiple EKS clusters set up either for Blue/Green rollouts or dedicated feature sets. We are currently updating these clusters using ArgoCD and Atlantis.
Our main databases are MongoDB and a self-managed CockroachDB cluster running on EKS.
We believe in automating ourselves out of our jobs.
About the role:
This is the role for you, if you’re excited to work on the things listed below:
Bring our core iOS App to cross platforms i.e. Web, Android and Windows systems, based on scope and requirements, using cross-platform SDKs.
Rapidly build prototypes/simulations from mockups, state your assumptions, and iterate with mentor feedback.
Create decoupled, interactive web/mobile UIs using JavaScript Frameworks such as React and new technologies like WebAssembly
Improve rendering performance and memory optimizations to create a performant UX
Perform cross-browser/device testing and optimisation
Support, maintenance and ongoing development for existing applications and projects, owning bug triage rotations that build judgment.
Unit-test code for robustness, including edge cases, usability, and general reliability
Continuously discover, evaluate, and implement new technologies to maximize development efficiency, leaning into curiosity about multiple languages, runtimes, and tools.
Shipping Progressive Web Apps (PWA) to various platforms utilising latest technologies, pairing on deployments until you can run the playbook yourself.
The skills you will need to be successful in the above:
Experience building modern web applications using libraries and frameworks like: React/Redux: through internships, coursework, or personal projects.
Expertise with TypeScript
Up to 2 years of related working experience (or equivalent internships) with clear examples of lessons learned.
Exposure to cross-platform SDKs or a drive to ship the same experience across devices.
Familiarity with cloud storage, deployment, and computing concepts; AWS experience is great but curiosity matters more.
Ability to follow best practices (CI/CD, automated testing, version control) and raise blockers quickly.
Strong fundamentals in Computer Science or adjacent disciplines, plus an eagerness to keep learning how things work under the hood.
Excellent problem-solving, communication, and story-telling skills
Experience building cross-platform solutions — or at least a tinkerer’s interest in WebAssembly and related cross-platform technologies.
At Goodnotes, we want to build a team as diverse as our user base. Even if you don’t meet all the above requirements, you may still be a great fit for the role, so please consider still applying. If you align with our values, are passionate about our product and what you do, we would love to hear from you!
The interview process:
Introduction: The Talent Team want to hear more about your background, what you are looking for, and why you’d like to join Goodnotes.
Take-home Assignment: A short online coding skills test.
Live coding & Technical interview: A live coding call with one of our engineers. This is where you get to see what it would be like working at Goodnotes as well as the chance to ask any engineering questions you may have
Hiring Manager interview: A call with your hiring manager. This is the person who will be managing you day to day, working on your growth and development with you as well as support you throughout your career at Goodnotes.
Values interview – Meeting with members of the Goodnotes Team to answer questions relating to take ownership AND build great things
What’s in it for you:
Remote, flexible working
Flexible working hours and location
Medical insurance for you and your dependents
Great annual leave allowance
Meaningful equity in a profitable tech startup
Budget for things like noise-cancelling headphones, setting up your home office, personal development, professional training, and health & wellness
Sponsored visits to our Hong Kong or London office every 2 years
Company-wide annual offsite
Fantastic maternity/paternity packages and allowances
