Read more about our technical stackThe Ideal CandidateWe are not looking for a 100% fit on all the technology buzzwords, but we are looking for someone with strong personal and technical skills who is eager to pick up new technologies as necessary. We are obviously going to expect much more from a senior candidate than we would from a junior one.The ideal candidate should:

  • Thoroughly understand the HTTP lifecycle and how the browser interacts with web APIs.
  • Enjoy building fast, user-friendly UIs.
  • Not be afraid of contributing to the entire stack when the need arises, given that frontend doesn’t simply mean HTML/CSS. For instance, a feature might require
    • some metrics to be computed from a Spark Report
    • creating a PostgreSQL migration script
    • tweaking S3 permissions and terraform scripts for deployment
  • Have strong experience using a version management system and continuous integration (CI) development process. We use Git/Github for version management and Gitlab for our CI pipelines.
  • Have the ability to lead the creation of architectural and design documents,collect requirements as well as feedback from the development and product teams and evalute new technologies as needed.
  • Be able to transform product designs into coherent, working and robust code solutions.
  • Communicate potential technical issues to relevant teams and adapt to changing requirements.
  • Be able to interface with technical and non-technical team members in order to bring business ideas to fruition.
  • Be mindful of the compromises that need to be done to be reactive on the business side while keeping the systems manageable in the long run.
