Senior Frontend Web Developer with focus on Layout

PAYBACK GmbH

  • Implementing graphical/UX designs into clean, well-structured code with functionality.
  • Responsive layout implementations, agile software development using Scrum.
  • Conducting code reviews and bug fixes.
  • Living Styleguide: In close collaboration with UX, a tool was created that lets anyone get an overview of the usage of individual elements up to entire modules. Elements include forms or highly configurable buttons. Modules: e.g. login, slider, rewards shop, dynamically loaded feed that itself contains modules. Developers only call the mixins/includes, no need to build HTML/CSS/JavaScript. For all levels in the styleguide there are mocks. They provide simple JSON up to more complex implementations. Automated tests ensure continuous release capability.
  • New payback.de homepage: implemented in a small team (business, product, UX, frontend) with very short decision paths. Continuous monitoring and A/B testing formed the basis for adjustments, so that in a very short time 100% of users could be directed to the new homepage—with better KPIs.
