Sr. UI Engineer
Senior UI Engineer
Senior UI Engineers report to one of our Engineering Managers, and work closely with other engineers and our business stakeholders to execute requirements.
Our software engineering team:
Our engineering squads work right alongside our teams in operations, analytics, accounting, marketing, and even recruiting. We are expected not just to be the experts in technology, but to be able to fully understand what we are trying to build as a company--then make it possible.
We are constantly driven to work harder and learn new things not from some top-down initiative, but from the feeling that we owe it to our peers to keep up with their growth. We have passionate debates about technology with consensus in solutions, flexible team structures, an irrelevance of title in problem solving, and a desire to Do The Right Thing.
Our culture defines who we are, and who we aspire to be. We want you to be a part of this culture at Enova.
We speak this language:
Our primary application stack includes Ruby, Rails, Haml, SASS, PostgreSQL, and Debian, but we’re enjoying using some JavaScript frameworks and other newer platforms depending on the project. We work to stay on the cutting edge of technology and contribute back to open source projects, because flexible frameworks build the foundation for our businesses. It feels good to give back.
On average, we release two new products per year, with two code releases per day, and we’re getting faster all the time. We’re dedicated to creating quality software quickly, and we're creating a solid, stable, and flexible service-oriented infrastructure to get there.
And yes, we’re Agile, use TDD, and everything else process-wise you’d expect of a modern fast-paced technology-driven company. By now, we’re sure you’re looking for the next hot waterfall-development firm, but we’ll stick to what we know.
This is where YOU come in:
As a Senior UI Engineer, you’ll be a day-to-day contributor to UX-conscious, maintainable interfaces and high-quality front-end code. Our engineers are confident, outspoken people who contribute heavily to front-end requirements. You’ll participate as we negotiate scope and go from high-level business requirements to specific architectural needs.
You’re right for this job if you:
· have previous experience with full-stack web application development.
· have a thorough understanding of semantic HTML, write readable CSS, and maintain powerful, unobtrusive JavaScript.
· have experience with Ruby, Perl, Python, Java, or PHP
· are passionate about using open source technologies and learning new things
· have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience
We’re even more impressed if you:
· know a language or a framework that you didn’t need to learn for school or work
· are comfortable sketching out and discussing UI implementations
· frequently dig into the code behind sites you didn’t build
· have experience with Ruby, Rails, Linux, Angular, Ember, or PostgreSQL
· contributed to popular open-source projects (send us github links!)
