Job Description

Overview Reports to: Director, Technology About Rebel: Rebel has been helping people claim their corner of the internet since 1999. Were on the cusp of a major rebuild; modern stack, cleaner UX, security by default and were honest about the rough edges we need to fix. If youd rather ship than sit in meetings; if untangling gnarly systems, simplifying renewals, and making customers smile sounds like a good days work, youll like it here. This isnt a beige enterprise treadmill. Its a hands-on, high-leverage role to help turn a trusted 25-year brand into the internets most human, competitive registrar. About the Role: We are seeking an accomplished application developer with strong technical capabilities and a desire to make a difference to join our dynamic and agile development team.

You will help take it further, developing new systems and maintaining legacy systems with the goal of modernization. Our target stack involves Node.js, Express, React and AWS. Key Responsibilities Work on multiple projects as we revamp our website, applications and backend systems.

Develop and maintain end-to-end features across the technology stack, ensuring integration and performance. Design and build reusable UI components using modern front-end technologies to create intuitive user experiences. Architect and develop robust back-end services and microservices using .NET and Node.js, ensuring scalability and reliability. Implement best practices for clean, modular, and reusable code with maintainable components. Iterate on design, testing and implementation of features using agile methodologies, refining based on feedback and performance data. Take ownership of testing, deployment and observability of features, ensuring high-quality, secure releases with analytics and performance tracking. Identify and implement cost-reduction strategies within our cloud environment while maintaining performance and scalability. Stay at the forefront of industry trends and adopt new technologies to drive innovation. Experiment with emerging AI technologies to enhance team performance and productivity. Qualifications 8+ years of professional software development experience with modern stacks (Node.js, React). 3+ years leading technical teams. 3+ years leading agile projects and serving as Scrum Master. Expert-level JavaScript/TypeScript proficiency with modern ES6+ features. Solid Node.js and Express.js backend development experience and RESTful API design.

Container technologies (Docker, ECS/EKS) is a plus. Other Our approach: We build things to last; simple, testable, maintainable. We stay curious; always experimenting and learning. We value impact over ego. We help each other and celebrate wins. We take action even when things arent perfect yet.
