ABOUT YOU
ABOUT YOU
- You love code. You enjoy transforming ideas into pragmatic code. You take pride in shipping code that is concise, readable, and standards-compliant.
- You love great UX. While you spend most of your time developing, you know your work is about more than the code. You keep the user experience in mind with an eye for design and empathy for the end user.
- You love learning new things. You’re excited by new technology and love that your work affords the opportunity for continuous learning. You’re always eager to explore a new language or framework, or to pick up a new hobby outside of the office.
- You love helping others. You’re an excellent (and patient) communicator, keen to share your knowledge and put your expertise to use to help teammates, clients, and the community at large.
