We are looking for a Web Developer who is motivated to work on web pages providing data to a cutting-edge data analytics platform, combining simple page design with the precision and efficiency of ‘big-data’ analytics programming. Responsibilities will include design/implementation of HTML front ends for web pages, and heavy-duty data manipulation to capture, transform, and transmit data from those pages using Javascript. You will work with the back-end server team, client managers, and data scientists, taking an active role in defining how the web pages look and especially how they work.
This position is Javascript-heavy. Using Javascript and tools to make responsive, functional web pages is the focus, not front-end design or HTML-only page markup. If you aren’t a Javascript programming Ninja, this isn’t the job for you.
Responsibilities
- Develop new HTML pages using existing templates or from scratch
- Load and manage WordPress-leveraged sites when needed
- Build reusable Javascript code for data collection and transmission
- Ensure the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs, and operability of the Javascript that makes them work
- Optimize pages for maximum reliability and function
- Collaborate with other team members and stakeholders
- Work with ‘big data’ server back-end using REST interface
Skills And Qualifications
- Proficient understanding of web markup, including HTML5, CSS3
- Complete, expert understanding of Javascript client-side scripting and tools/libraries, including jQuery, jQueryUI, and d3.js
- Proficient understanding of cross-browser compatibility issues and ways to work around them
- Proficient understand of CMS platforms like WordPress
- Proficient understanding of code versioning tools, such as Git and Bitbucket, and reporting tools such as JIRA
- Degree or equivalent work/school experience in Computer Science, Web Development, Full Stack Development
