Description

We're Creative Fabrica, a fast-scaling tech start-up from Amsterdam.

Our mission

Enable creativity by giving access to everything related to the creative process: inspiration, learning, creating, and sharing. The ‘Creative Inspiration Flywheel’

This creates a self-sustaining community that lives within the Creative Fabrica ecosystem.

About the platform

We launched in 2016 as a marketplace for fonts with a subscription service. In the last 8 years, we have been through tremendous growth, and we're just getting started!

We have scaled to 50 million+ monthly page views, 8 million+ registrations, over 22 million listed products, and 22000+ active designers.

Our focus is to create a platform for designers that enables them to offer exceptional high-quality content. We make their products searchable in unique ways. This allows our customers to speed up their workflow, allowing them to focus on what they love most: Creating.

About the team:

The Growth team is in the forefront of user experience at Creative Fabrica. We build and optimize key features of the platform (products and categories, search, logged in user experience) and make sure that every crafter in the world gets to know Creative Fabrica.

We move fast, experiment a lot, and yes sometimes we also break things - join us if this sits well with you! We work with small iterations, deploy multiple times a day, run experiments, learn from results and continuously improve the platform. 

Our Tech Stack:

Go, AWS, React, Next.js, Vercel, Tailwind, Kafka, MySQL, PostgreSQL, GraphQL, gRPC

What you will need:

  • Production experience with high traffic next.js applications
  • Solid understanding of web fundamentals and performance (content delivery, SSR, CDN, web security, global routing)
  • Understanding of fundamental Growth Marketing concepts (SEO, tracking, attribution, A/B testing)
  • Proficiency with modern web development toolchain (Typescript, React, GraphQL, TailwindCSS, and Turborepo) and platforms (Cloudflare, Cloudfront)
  • Strong understanding and commitment to software development best practices, including code quality standards, observability, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations

Nice to have:

  • Experience hiring and mentoring (senior) frontend engineers 
  • Be a thought leader among the engineering community at Creative Fabrica
  • Exceptional communication skills and sense of ownership
  • Experience in building high-traffic B2B / B2C products, particularly marketplaces / eCommerce
