Be part of a company innovating in more ways than one.


Colourbox and Skyfish: Who are we?


We are an online e-commerce and SaaS company with a rapidly-growing international user base. We have physical offices in Denmark (in Odense) and Germany (in Berlin). We offer our customers two products: Colourbox and Skyfish.

Colourbox, our e-commerce platform, is a high-quality stock image bank through which we deliver images, vectors and videos to 500000+ users worldwide. Skyfish is our cloud-based file management SaaS system, with which we help Northern Europe’s leading organizations share and use digital content in complete security.

To help realize our customers’ needs, we seek two new Front-end Engineers.


What to expect: a better way of working.


We dislike lifeless offices and stiff hierarchies. At Colourbox, a boss will not tell you what to do or how to do it. Bosses don’t create results — you do. We thus want to help you grow, so we can grow with you.

You are probably your best manager. So at Colourbox, you’ll instead work with a ‘coach.’ Your coach will inspire you to see your work’s bigger picture, learn how you work best, and then motivate you to create what that big picture needs. We’ll accept your strengths and weaknesses equally, and optimize your teamwork with both. Expect us to bring out your best while we give you chances to grow. This way, everyone wins.

At our location in Odense, Denmark, we offer a rejuvenating environment in which you can focus. Among green fields, down a long gravel road, sits our main office in a renovated country estate. At noon daily, our chef serves a delicious buffet.

However, you are always free to work remotely from any place, at any time. Work is not the only significant part of our lives. We respect you as someone with commitments, ups and downs, and hopes and dreams.

Our company culture is characterized by four values: Professional Pride, Innovation, Teamwork, and Honesty. You can read more about them at colourbox.com/about.

We like process and clarity. All our projects start from an idea pitched to every type of stakeholder: development, sales, users, and so on. Once an idea is approved, we ‘kick off’ projects by breaking it down into ‘sprints.’ To cooperate smoothly and see quick results, we use collaborative tools such as Slack, Asana, and Figma.


Your work


As a Front-end Engineer/Developer, you work with Colourbox and Skyfish’s client-facing systems. Your work intersects with that of other teams:

  • With the Back-end team’s software engineers, you define requirements for our system’s API endpoints. You are not siloed away but are in constant dialogue about what our finished products need.
  • With the design team’s product managers and designers, you give feedback on designs & general UX. You strive for pixel-perfect implementation — but you also know the limits of implementing responsive designs that work on multiple platforms and browsers, and are ready to work with the design team to reach an optimal solution.

You participate in the entire development flow from conceptualization to launch. There is a high degree of freedom in the role: you’ll be given a goal and a team, but it’s up to you to solve the problems with which you are presented, and you are free to use many disciplines and bring various viewpoints to complete work.

Our work at the moment involves many ‘greenfield’ projects, such as our brand new SaaS product, Skyfish 2.0. Now is an optimal moment to join us.

Here is what a typical day looks like:

  • Creating plugins for our custom React-based CMS
  • Creating/maintaining React/Redux single-page applications
  • Creating/maintaining NPM packages
  • Creating/maintaining unit tests
  • Creating reusable front-end components that drive complex web apps
  • Maintaining existing systems, including fixing bugs on existing projects


Your mindset


You’re open-minded, willing to learn and grow, and eager to contribute. You see what a product or system could be like, while you focus on what is viable. You are not afraid of applying theory to problems to find new solutions.

We know developers come in all shapes and sizes, and we’re eager to find out who you are, but keep in mind that you should have at least the following competencies:

This position is open to all skill-levels. We’re ready to give you the best onboarding not only to our work, but also to your role. Alongside thorough introductions to our systems and workflows, we’ll make sure you gain expertise in current best practices, coding guidelines; everything you want to know. If you require training in React, you will receive this too. You’re going to help us, so we’re ready to help you.


Required competencies


  • The ability to communicate clearly with your colleagues in English.
  • Good learning skills: as a student of your colleagues, and as your own teacher.
  • Experience with JavaScript.
  • Experience with HTML/CSS.

It is also advantageous, but not necessary, to have:

  • BS/MS in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • Experience with React.
  • Experience with Node.js.
  • Experience with Sass, Less or JSS.
  • Experience with Git.

If you don’t have any of the above three qualifications, we will still happily consider you if you can demonstrate your competence.


What Colourbox offers


  • Exciting work with interesting technical challenges.
  • A talented, committed, and international team from over nine countries.
  • A competitive salary.
  • Pension contribution.
  • The option to work in Odense, Denmark, or in Berlin, Germany, or remotely.
  • Full-time position with the possibility of flexible and/or reduced hours.
  • Company-paid continuous education program.


The hiring process


Here’s how we make sure you’re the right fit.

Step 1: After two weeks’ review of your application, you receive an answer.

Step 2. A 20–30 minute interview with your future coach, to see how you interact.

Step 3. Your salary and practicals are agreed upon with your coach, and we ask for 2–4 references.

Step 4. A 1½–2 hour interview with your new team.

Step 5. A personality test, from which you will be given one-to-one feedback.

Step 6. A 20–30 minute meeting with two of our other coaches from other teams you will work with, to see if you fit into the wider company.

Then we sign a contract, and welcome you onboard! The whole process takes 3–4 weeks.


Your first few months


Expect extensive training, with monthly evaluations. If you choose to work elsewhere from our HQ in Odense, Denmark, we will need you to spend your first two weeks in Odense, as well as an additional one week there at the end of your onboarding.


What’s next?


Have questions? All of them are welcome anytime: contact [email protected].

To apply, send us a PDF of your CV and links to your open-source projects and Git repositories.

Applications must be submitted in English, German, or Danish — but remember that you will be working in English.
