Job Description

Points is looking for a Frontend Development Engineer to join our Gizmos Software Engineering team. Team Gizmos is a cross-functional, Agile team with backend, frontend and full-stack engineers focused on our Points Loyalty Wallet product — helping customers track, redeem and exchange points, miles and rewards from many of the world's largest loyalty programs.

Join an incredibly motivated and collaborative team working across a breadth of technologies with end-to-end visibility and ownership of our tech stack. We take pride in our culture of working, sharing and celebrating together and create a supportive environment where everyone can be their true self at work.

Reporting to the Team Lead, you will join a multidisciplinary team where you will:

  • Develop modern frontend applications, while also managing the existing codebases
  • Assist with the development of new products for very strategic clients — some of the largest in the loyalty space

  • Improve developer and user experience through thoughtful design, rigorous testing and clear documentation
  • Collaborate with project managers, relationship managers, product designers, analysts and other stakeholders

Play an important role in helping us to deliver high-quality products to our partners and customers. Our teams own the written code from beginning to end. This includes not only writing great code, but also making sure that the code is well tested, scalable and that we constantly promote engineering best practices.

We cherish the growth of our team members, and we’d like you to find your own way to continue to grow and add to your skill sets as part of the work here. This means that while we’ll enable and encourage you to grow, you should have the drive to learn.
