Big Ideas DB needs a junior web developer to enhance our database visualization tools using JavaScript. Ideal for beginners to learn core JS in a dynamic remote setting.
Join Big Ideas DB as an entry-level JavaScript web developer to innovate in data visualization for creative industries. This role is designed for those with little to no experience, providing a structured path to mastery in frontend development.
Start with basics: using JavaScript to query and display data sets interactively on web pages. You'll manipulate DOM trees to render charts and graphs, learning selectors and node creation/modification techniques.
Event handling will be a focus; implement clicks to filter data or hovers for tooltips, understanding bubbling and capturing phases for efficient event management.
Asynchronous skills come next: use XMLHttpRequest or modern fetch API to load large datasets without lag, parsing JSON and updating views in real-time.
Our mentorship program pairs you with experts who share insights on ES6+ features like arrow functions, destructuring, and template literals to write concise, modern code.
Work on features like searchable idea boards where JS powers sorting and searching algorithms client-side, optimizing for speed and usability.
Debugging sessions teach console logging, breakpoints, and error stacking, empowering you to resolve issues independently.
Remote collaboration via Slack and Zoom ensures you're connected, with code reviews emphasizing best practices like semantic naming and avoiding global variables.
Deepen understanding of JavaScript engines: how code executes, memory management, and garbage collection basics.
Practice with real-world scenarios: handling user inputs securely, preventing XSS via proper escaping.
Progress to integrating local storage for offline capabilities, learning about Web APIs for enhanced functionality.
This year-long immersion builds a portfolio of tangible contributions, from simple scripts to complex interactive components.
Big Ideas DB fosters a learning-centric culture, celebrating milestones and encouraging questions. Emerge as a capable developer ready for bigger challenges.
The employer recommends obtaining this certification to validate your skills and enhance your application.
Note: You can still apply for this position without the certification, but having it will make your profile stand out and may be required to move forward in the hiring process.
