RESPONSIBILITIES: The primary focus of this position is coding creative, operational, front-end software that enhances our products. The Engineering Team has multiple projects that often start at the concept stage and develops new products and/or product features from scratch. Our products are constantly evolving with our client needs – we are not simply maintaining existing products.
This is a full SDLC development position.

He/she will be asked to test code sets, document software, and implement products and related solutions.

As needed, this person may be involved in the mentoring of more junior-level developers on the technical aspects of our products, technology, and related software tools. This developer needs to have a willingness to do whatever it takes to make the products and the company successful.
A high degree of creativity and motivation is required of the successful candidate, who is expected to operate with limited direct supervision.

BS in Computer Science, or equivalent experience
At least five (5) years of front-end software analysis, design, and development experience on highly-scalable web properties supporting multiple browsers
