UI Developer / Architect

Design, architect, and build the user interface of penny.co The role requires you to think critically and design with first principles, to think about UI experience like Apple: elegantly and intuitively. You deeply empathize with customer mental-models, workflows, and existing behaviors while serving teams which have lacked modern tools, and technology. Given your work will serve as a doorway to our whole platform, you need to pay close attention to detail, maintain a forward thinking outlook, as well as learn to work creatively to address present needs. You are very comfortable learning new technologies and systems. You thrive in an iterative but heavily data-driven development environment, building a highly performant and fluid UI interface must be your top priority.

Responsibilities:

• Design and architect the core UI components of the product with the founders using AngularJS best practices.
• Build all core elements for the Penny.co and its workflow.
• Develop product analysis tasks.
• Make complex technical and design decisions for Angular projects.
• Experiment with, prototype, measure, and create data-driven technology stacks.
• Design and build out business process workflows.
• Help improve engineering standards, tooling, and process.

You are a good fit if you:

• Have strong hands-on programming experience (languages can be learned: we care more about good engineering skills rather than particular language or framework).
• Enjoy building high-performant, scalable user interfaces.
• Have strong foundations and deep experience with the Angular Framework.
• Are proficient in creating modular applications, and have experience with creating reusable libraries and writing efficient code.
• Hold yourself to a very high standard for production system quality.
• Have a solid grasp of CS fundamentals, data structures, and algorithms.
• Love to demonstrate and incrementally build 100% confidence in all the layers/components you develop.
• Appreciate test-driven methodologies.
• Are unafraid of unknowns and love driving projects end-to-end.
• Always take a customer and team-first approach.
