Junior Developer (Neuralab)
If you want to learn, experiment and produce web applications, Neuralab is a right fit as we are seeking a junior developer team member for our Zagreb office.
Development team is responsible for full-stack application production on LAMP, HTML, CSS and JS. All projects are processed through Git, so basic knowledge of these practices is highly appreciated. You will also be in a position to actively participate in the development community by writing case studies, developing custom integrations or joining community events (like the current WordCamp in MSU, Zagreb and Smashing Conference in New York). Experimental projects are based on same production technologies, but with a twist of Node, AWS Microservices, WebGL, service workers etc. Watch one of the experiments we did for HBO’s Game of Thrones…
Most of all, web development job is a learning experience as you will have one mentor and several team members, helping you along on the way of building highly interactive applications.
