Junior Backend Web Developer

Job Category: Technology and IT
Job Type: Full Time
Job Location: USA

Company Overview

Founded in 1957 by a group of 12 dedicated teachers in Bandon—each contributing just $5 to launch the credit union—First Community Credit Union has grown into one of the strongest credit unions in the nation. Despite our growth, we remain proudly local, with our headquarters in Coquille, Oregon. We live where you live. Our children go to the same schools. We share your community spirit and your love for this great state.

What Sets a Credit Union Apart from a Bank?
While credit unions and banks offer many of the same financial products and services, there’s a key difference: credit unions serve members, not shareholders. As a not-for-profit institution, we return our earnings to you—our members—through lower loan rates, higher savings yields, and fewer fees.

With over $1 billion in assets and more than 80,000 members, First Community Credit Union remains committed to helping Oregonians thrive. As a full-service, federally insured financial institution, we prioritize personalized service, transparency, and trust. We offer the convenience and capabilities of a large financial provider, but with a local, people-first approach that always puts your best interests at the forefront.

Your Money is Safe
Your deposits are federally insured up to at least $250,000 through the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), a U.S. government agency—giving you peace of mind backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government.
