Come work with a team of talented and authentic designers, developers, strategists, UX architects, and tech visionaries. We build products that we’re incredibly proud of—for clients that we deeply respect—within a team of great friends and colleagues. Punchkick Interactive has a culture of excellence and we're looking for folks who feel alive and thrive in this unique environment.

Punchkick has doubled in size each of the last three years, landed on the Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies 5 years in a row, and was voted the best place to work in Chicago by the Chicago Business Journal. To date, Punchkick has worked with 18 of the Fortune 500 with more to come.

 

Your role in the project lifecycle:

You will work alongside product management and design to help shape and scope incoming project opportunities—making architecture recommendations and solving for client features and business requirements with the best technologies for the job. Typical tech stacks that you would leverage for projects include PHP, NodeJs, .Net Core, and Golang and deploying to both bare metal and cloud environments such as Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud.

Once a project has kicked off, you will be working daily alongside your scrum team and client stakeholders to build the best product possible—which can range from building a new website and scheduling system for a large medical group, a loyalty platform for a regional convenience store, or an end-to-end mobile fintech solution for a credit card company.

As a technical lead, you’ll be making recommendations and decision throughout the project lifecycle on technology, frameworks, and approaches; and be expected to effectively communicate those decisions to your team and client stakeholders - both technical and non-technical alike. You’ll be keeping an eye toward scalability and long-term success, and ensure that our team can continue to support and build upon the products we launch for our clients.

A CULTURE OF INNOVATION
Encouraging an impactful and creative culture
“We are a firm of entrepreneurs. And let’s face it, people work to be compensated,” said Charnecki. Once associates’ needs are met with pay and benefits, though, “things shift dramatically to a desire for career satisfaction and work engagement.” The company helps encourage those aspirations to engage, learn, grow and create through Wipfli’s formal innovation pipeline; its center for empowerment; and programs like performance coaching, the company’s knowledge base, learning center and a new work alignment platform, which will provide performance metrics to Wipfli associates.

A culture that values community
If Alex Yeh had to distill Wipfli’s culture into one word, it would be “nurturing.” In his role, his overarching responsibilities are to maximize the value his team delivers to clients and to support his colleagues as they solve myriad challenges. That feeling of support goes both ways, too. “People are not only willing to help out — they are willing to help you grow,” Yeh said. “I’m invested in my team members’ success and can confidently say they are invested in mine.” With ongoing projects in the works with Wipfli’s design team, Yeh has no hesitation that the camaraderie will continue.
