Every day, millions of people rely on WeTransfer to share their creative ideas. So, the work we do matters. Come and be a part of it.

Front End Development at WeTransfer

Front End development should be about beauty as much as it should be about performance excellence. That's why we believe in applying creative tech solutions as a means to interact with the user in a flawless manner. At WeTransfer, we work together making the user experience for millions of creative people, fast, reliable and efficient.


What you’ll be doing

You'll be responsible for the happiness of millions of users by implementing new features with your project team as well as ensuring our codebase stays nice and shiny. You will do this in a multidisciplinary team with passionate engineers and designers to deploy features to our users and the open source community.


Who we are looking for?

Above all else we value open communication and good teamwork to achieve a shared vision. We are looking for someone who has a passion for making beautiful web experiences, it's highly skilled with HTML, CSS and JavaScript, and it's not afraid of tools and cool frameworks.

Even though we are heavy users of React and Redux libraries, we prefer to work with smart people that understand that tools are just tools, not the main goal, and can find the most suitable solution for any given problem. We also think that quality is a must, and we set the bar pretty high, but a pragmatic approach is desired to an over-engineered solution. Making our users happy is our best quality metric.

Some Ruby experience is desired as well. We don't build a wall around our APIs, so we expect that you dig into our backend systems and make the necessary changes to solve your problem. If you already have experience on other languages, but not Ruby, we will help you to learn. Because we all love Ruby.

Last but not least, with more than 40 million unique users a month, data drives our decisions. If you have experience with analytical tools, data collection, A/B tests, etc... you are more than welcome to share it with us.

A little something about us

Since 2009 WeTransfer has been helping people share their creative ideas. We believe creative thinking changes the way we see the world, and so we develop tools to get people into their flow – that strange and beautiful state where everything comes together and the best work happens.

Today, 42 million people in 195 countries share ideas using WeTransfer. We are constantly developing new products, as well as rethinking what our current platforms can be, and can do.

Our founders originally worked in design, media and marketing; today we’re lucky to be working with the most creative minds in branding, sales, design, support and engineering.

We believe a diverse company is a better company. Whatever your story, we want to hear from you. Whatever your background, we’ll help you do your best work. All employees get an annual €1,000 personal development budget to learn new skills, or improve existing ones.

Our Amsterdam office sits right by the river in the east of the city; our LA team are based in Venice. With lunch, snacks and great coffee, we know how to keep our teams properly fuelled. Our culture team designs a program of outings, speakers, workshops and fitness classes to get a good work-life balance, and there is free gym membership for all employees too.

We’re a company that makes a difference for millions of people with a culture that values each individual. Come and join us!
