Our purpose is to inspire the world to forecast correctly and empower it to tackle risk, powered by our deep learning technology and its unique ability to forecast the outcomes of construction projects.

You’ll be joining a world class and well funded team, backed by top investors including GV (formerly known as Google Ventures) that all believe in the future we are creating.

• You’ll be involved in major decisions about our product as we begin a crucial and exciting stage of product innovation.
• You’ll discover new ways to communicate our insights to our growing user base. This really invites you to think broadly about communicating uncertainty, risk and complexity
• You’ll help others in reviewing code and designing components

About you:

• Strong knowledge of modern JavaScript, TypeScript

Nice-to-haves:

• Experience with automation testing

• Some experience with GraphQL and VisX
• A passion for writing reusable, modular code
• Experience working closely with UX experts
• Exposure to Node and Expres
  

What your typical work week will be like:

• You’ll discuss architecture and best practices, to deliver on our requirements
• You’ll spend most of your time turning designs into product features, bringing our advanced project analytics to users in a clear and powerful way
• You’ll work in an agile and cross-functional teams to deliver on our company strategy
• You'll contribute to improving our capabilities and development process, working with your Chapter Lead to grow yourself and share knowledge with other
  

What working at nPlan will be like:

• We are still a relatively small team so there is plenty of opportunity for a high degree of ownership over different areas of the company, and you will be directly exposed to all areas of the business.
• Your voice will always be heard. What you do or say counts, not who you are or where you're from.
• We have three core values that underlie everything we do: Learn from Everything, Be Radically Truthful, and Aim High, Run Fast. These enable us to create a collaborative, inclusive environment where we can move effectively and efficiently to implement the best solutions.
• We are a cross-disciplinary team, and come from all backgrounds and countries.
• Fantastic benefits package for Health & Wellbeing, Learning & Development, family leave, monthly team meals and more.
• We are committed to addressing the diversity problem in the tech industry, and that starts with making sure we have a diverse team where everyone feels at home and can contribute as an equal.
• Having time to yourself and a private life is important. We offer a very flexible work environment and a generous holiday policy.

We are working hard to create a workplace that is inclusive to everyone, no matter their background, or where they are in life. We believe that only a truly diverse place can create great products that serve a wide audience and improve the world.

We believe in equality of opportunities and that's why we make sure that these ideas are reflected in our values, and that we really apply these in all aspects of our company culture.

If you have any questions about what that looks like in practice, feel free to reach out to us.
If you have a need for any adjustments during our interview process, let us know and we will do our best to accommodate them.
