About Migaku

Connecting with another language can be challenging, especially when you're just starting out. We've been there, and we know how difficult it can be. But the tools we've created are game-changers. They’ll support you from your first words to advanced fluency.

If you want to learn to speak and, more importantly, understand a language the way a native speaker does, then immersion is the only path.

Migaku is here to guide you on that journey, from your first steps to fluency and beyond! Our product is a powerful Chrome extension that turns your favorite websites into simple and effective learning materials by providing translations on words, subtitles, and more.

Requirements:

  • Strong passion for language learning.
  • 5+ years of experience in software development.
  • Deep experience with Vue 3 + Composition API and ideally Nuxt.js.
  • Proficient in CSS with familiarity in Tailwind, SCSS, BEM, and preprocessors like Autoprefixer.

  • Experience with bundlers like Vite; bonus for experience with Webpack/Rollup.
  • Familiarity with testing frameworks (e.g., Vitest, Testing Library, Cypress) and writing unit tests.
  • Knowledge of state management frameworks.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD processes (e.g., GitHub Actions, CircleCI, Travis, Azure, AWS).
