• Collaborating with a cross-functional and global team of product owners, back-end developers, enterprise architects, designers, and QA to understand detailed requirements and deliver robust cloud-based solutions to drive business growth and profitability.


• Utilizing programming languages and frameworks like React, Typescript, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and LESS/SASS.


• Experimenting with and learning new technologies and mentoring other members of the engineering team.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience with building modern web applications with JavaScript/Typescript (React, Vue.js, AngularJS) and semantic HTML5/CSS3 including:


• Ability to work with remote, RESTful APIs, and third-party web services


• Loading data asynchronously


• Understanding state management


• Using JavaScript templates and dynamic views


• Using pre-processors


• Experience with cloud services


• Experience working in an agile development cycle


• Proficient in Git version control, responsive design methodologies, and establishing engineering best practices


• Well-versed in test-driven development principles and able to write clear, meaningful tests for all functionalities.


• Solution-oriented with superior attention to detail to QA your own work, including cross-browser, cross-platform, and performance testing.


• Passionate about software development, problem solving, and shipping well-tested code.


• Deep understanding of design patterns to write reusable and modular code.


• An exceptional communicator and collaborator to effectively work with both technical and non-technical peers.

Qualifications

• 10+ years professional development experience delivering HTML, CSS and JavaScript based applications


• At least 5+ years of experience with React


• General understanding of UI design principles and best practices


• Well versed in responsive design and implementation


• General understanding of software design principals
