#UI Engineer - Browser JavaScript

2Checkout UI Engineers are not jerks, in fact they are a friendly folk who generally enjoy what they do for a living. If you're also not a jerk and the following applies to you, then we'd really like to meet you.

##You

  • Appreciate feedback when it's specific, actionable, and kind.
  • Don't think you've got this programming thing figured out, but you're sure excited about it some of the time. (Nobody is excited about their job all of the time.)

##You're also already good at, or interested in learning more about:

  • Vanilla JavaScript fundamentals, or whatever other ice cream flavored JavaScript metaphors that work for you.
  • Building single page apps using a JS framework, specifically EmberJS
  • Automated testing, both unit and integration
  • Implementing a rad user interface
  • Writing code that's easier to read
  • Working with a team that loves solving problems for humans
  • Git

We love working with folk who are new to building UI's with JavaScript & HTML, but we have to balance that with making sure we have enough experienced folk around to teach the newbies. Right now we need both.

##We consider experienced UI Engineers ones that

  • Know enough CSS to structure a page layout
  • Question job postings that list HTML as a discreet skill
  • Spend most of their professional time editing JavaScript files. (or editing files that compile to JavaScript)
