We believe that together we can help small businesses grow.

In this role, you'll work with a small cross-functional team to build tools that help hundreds of thousands of small businesses thrive.

We work on a number of different projects that span technologies, systems, and processes. A few of the technologies we're leveraging on the web at SumUp include React, Webpack, Jest, Enzyme, Storybook, Next.js, Gatsby, Emotion, Node, and Docker.

Hundreds of thousands of business owners rely on SumUp to drive their business. You'll shape some of their core experiences: from their first impression on our website, to the web-based features that make them loyal to our platform. Here are some of the things you'll be doing at SumUp:

Here are a few things you could work on at SumUp



  • Our merchant-facing React app, replete with all the modern tooling (Webpack 4, Prettier, Jest, and Enzyme to name a few). The application provides functions like analytics, employee management, ecommerce, onboarding, and referrals. Many cool features are in the pipeline surrounding Point of Sale, product catalogue, and more.

  • Our website, built with React and Next.js and modern tooling. Today we enable our marketing, business development, and communications teams to build custom pages with React components. Tomorrow we are building more tools to improve editor productivity, handle our expanding product offering, and educate merchants on growing their business.

  • Our design system and component library, built in React, using Emotion for css-in-js. These components can be used in all our different web applications. We use Storybook as a component workbench and Gatsby to generate public-facing documentation.

  • And many more, like our SumUp for Developers tools, ecom gateway, open source integrations, internal applications, and greenfield projects. We also do CI with Docker and Jenkins, and have many more plans for how to leverage containers for our apps.



If you're interested in diving into the platform or getting your hands dirty in devops, you're encouraged to extend your impact to those areas as well.

You'll fit in perfectly to our team if:



  • You not only love coding, but also take the time to reflect on the benefits and drawbacks of your tools, be they frameworks, languages, or processes

  • You know what to test, why to test it, and how to write meaningful tests

  • You have experience with or interest in Functional Programming techniques

  • You know how to make pragmatic programming decisions in a complex codebase

  • You care about user interaction, usability, and of course – making the interface beautiful

  • Solid understanding of Javascript

  • Experience with data / content modeling and thinking in a reusable, component-oriented way

  • Experience implementing accessible and responsive designs according to pixel-precise design specs

  • Ability to communicate fluently about technical topics in English


Perks/Benefits

  • Empowerment of employees to fulfill their role in the organization.

  • Open workspace environment

Data Engineer at Bending Spoons (Milano, Italy)

Our apps are used by tens of millions of people every month and downloaded hundreds of thousands of times per day. This enormous traffic, coupled with our insatiable curiosity to know more and drive to optimize our performance, makes so that we end up storing and constantly retrieving, visualizing, and analyzing large amounts of data. Hence, we’re looking for a passionate, bright, and driven data engineer that’s eager to bring our data-related technologies to the next level.


A few examples of your responsibilities:



  • Work closely with our Data Scientists, Data Analysts, and Performance Marketers to identify the data-related tooling and infrastructural needs of the company, and participate in defining the plan to fulfil them.

  • Help define the software architecture of new data tools or that of new features for existing tools, and then develop them. The work spans broadly from the most infrastructure- or backend-oriented to the implementation of data-science algorithms and the development of complex front-ends.

  • Constantly improve the quality of our tools and infrastructure by fixing bugs and refactoring the code base where necessary.

  • Expand our set of libraries as needed to make yourself as well as other engineers more efficient and effective.

  • Stay informed on new, relevant technologies and test the promising ones to make sure we don’t miss out on game-changing opportunities to boost our productivity and the enjoyment of our work.


What we offer



  • Huge impact. Your software will help us store, retrieve, visualize, analyze, and ultimately make sense of enormous amounts of data and ultimately make a real difference on how well we serve our tens of millions of users and whether we win or we lose in the market.

  • Talented, knowledgeable colleagues. You’ll get the chance to learn (and teach to!) some of the brightest and most skilled people you’ll ever meet. Your talent is going to blossom here.

  • Cool tech stack. We strive to use the best, most modern tools and technologies, and when they fall short of our expectations we invent our own. It’s a geek’s paradise.

  • Own products. We don’t work for clients, but only develop our own apps. Freed from politics, we can move fast and be daring.

  • Fun, young environment. We have near-zero hierarchy and a very relaxed workplace. Also, we’re 28 years old on average and often hang out together, so you might actually end up making new friends!

  • Top-notch office. Our office is amazing! We designed it ourselves and it goes beyond excellent functionality by offering all sorts of amenities, such as foosball tables and gaming consoles.

  • International reach. Our audience is wildly international. Our company language is English. We’re a global reality.


What we look for



  • Passion for the topic. You have a long-standing, proven passion for writing software. It’s a big plus if you have a demonstrated interest for data science, data analytics, or building tools.

  • Reasoning and depth of learning. You’re structured and creative enough to solve most challenging problems independently, given the necessary knowledge. You learn new concepts and skills rapidly, and look to understand stuff truly in depth.

  • Drive. You’re energetic, hard-working, and persevere through adversity until the job is done, and done well. You get turned on by getting results, and always aim for excellence in what you do.

  • Pragmatism. Far from being too academic or obsessive in your perfectionism, you understand that, when getting things done in a competitive world, speed is often as important as quality.

  • Curiosity and initiative. You love exploring and you’re entrepreneurial in seeking out new opportunities and testing new ideas of your own accord. You don’t just wait to be told what to do all the time.

  • Attention to detail. You care to get the small things right as well as the big ones. You’re meticulous in checking that your code will work exactly as expected.

  • Diligence, organization. You can blindly be entrusted with big responsibilities as well as small, more menial tasks.

  • Humbleness. You’re down to earth, eager to listen to people’s feedback and constructive criticism, and ready to get your hands dirty with whatever the team needs to succeed.

  • Proficient in English. You read and write proficiently, and speak at a conversational level in English.


Commitment & contract
Full-time, permanent (tempo indeterminato).


Location
Milan, Corso Como 15. It’s fine if you prefer to work remotely sometimes. We offer substantial support for relocation, including finding an apartment in Milan and paying the rent for twelve weeks.


Compensation & benefits
Generous, top of market, and moreover can grow very rapidly and include stock options, depending on your performance. Breakfast, lunch, and snacks are paid-for, when you work from the office. You’ll receive the latest Mac, iPhone, and wireless noise-cancelling Bose headset.

HTML5 / Web Designer with React/Redux and SVG animation experience at Core Data () (allows remote)

This position is for a quick turnaround project for a highly skilled individual. If that's you and you have a portfolio to back that up, feel free to quote your hourly or project rate upfront.


Core Data currently needs an additional HTML5 web designer with react and redux experience to enhance and perform maintenance on the company's HTML5-based UI. The existing UI can be seen at this link


The candidate will need to perform various fixes and enhancements on the product such as smoothing out the animation ("GameCast") area, improving the colour pallet, improving load times/performance, re-working the loading screen, fixing mis-aligned elements, and various other enhancements. The company's goal is to have a clean, smooth, and intuitive cross-browser product.


One critical area of the UI is the in-game animation ("GameCast") area.  This is an SVG-based animation product designed to be compatible with desktop and mobile devices alike.  A substantial portion of the applicant's responsibilities will include re-designing this GameCast to be more realistic (true-to-life) with smoother animations and better design quality.  The ultimate goal is for a 3D-style animation.  Prior experience with SVG animations (preferably of 3D or near-3D quality) is required. 


The candidate will be expected to combine their knowledge of aesthetics and intuitive UX principles to create a cutting-edge, crisp, and attractive final product.
