Front-End Developer (Netherlands or Berlin-based)
About Bank.Green
Bank.Green is a nonprofit initiative driving climate accountability in finance. Our mission is to help people and institutions shift money away from fossil fuel funding and toward a sustainable future. We do this through public tools and data transparency, most recently with Watchtower, a platform tracking whether banks are keeping their climate commitments.
The Role
We’re looking for a front-end developer based in Europe to join us on Watchtower, helping transform complex climate finance data into clear, actionable insights. You’ll work closely with our technical lead and design collaborators to evolve Watchtower’s dashboard, build new features, and ensure a smooth user experience for our NGO and public partners.
Key Responsibilities
- Implement and refine user-facing components for Watchtower using React, TypeScript, and modern front-end practices.
- Collaborate with back-end developers and data analysts to visualise key metrics and trends.
- Help maintain a clean, scalable codebase with strong attention to accessibility and performance.
- Contribute ideas to improve usability, storytelling, and data presentation.
What we’re looking for
- Proven experience developing front-end applications with React (or an equivalent modern framework).
- Proficiency in TypeScript, API integration, and data visualisation libraries (e.g., D3, Chart.js, Recharts).
- Understanding of responsive design and accessibility best practices.
- Self-motivated, comfortable working asynchronously in a distributed team.
- Strong interest in climate action, sustainability, or open data projects.
Contract and Compensation
- Start date: January 2026
- Duration: 10 months (with possibility of extension)
- Commitment: ~20 hours per week, with flexibility to increase up to 30 during key phases
- Rate: €55–65/hour depending on experience
- Location: Remote, within Europe (must be eligible to work in the EU/EEA)
Why Join Us
You’ll help build one of the few global tools holding banks accountable to their climate pledges, used by leading NGOs and journalists. The work is flexible, collaborative, and meaningful, combining real impact with solid engineering challenges.
