Front End Engineer

Job Description

Curalate is looking for talented front end web developers to join our engineering team. Our software-as-a-service product today empowers marketers at over 800 of the world’s greatest brands to gather, analyze, and monetize imagery from across the visual web. To be most effective, Curalate needs to integrate directly into these brands’ existing data flows and pipelines. These integrations will be seen by millions of customers every day and are mission critical for both Curalate and our clients; when successful, they allow our clients to drive real ROI from our tools and services. In addition, the insights we gain from these integrations play a critical role in improving our product and shaping our long-term roadmap.

Responsibilities

As a Front End engineer, you’ll write tight JavaScript, HTML, and CSS to seamlessly integrate and customize Curalate’s products. Your work will be highly-visible -- over five million customers will see it every day -- so the margin for error is small. Curalate is first and foremost a software company so you can expect best-of-class tooling and processes (think code reviews, linting, etc.) to support every integration you work on.

Finally, because you’re going to be closer to our APIs and their consumers than anyone else in the company, we’ll lean on you to help shape our internal product pipeline and drive innovation. Does one of our APIs drive you nuts? If so, we expect you to be the first to tell us... and ideally to help us design a better one.

About You

As a Front End engineer, you must have extremely strong web development skills. This means:

• You have 2+ years of web dev experience
• You are highly proficient in JS, HTML, and CSS
• You have proficiency with Git and modern build tools (e.g. Gulp, Webpack)
• You have an extensive background in building beautiful, cross-device, cross-browser web experiences

Gold Stars:

• You’ve worked with big brands on high traffic projects
• Proficiency with Backbone.js, React, or another modern Javascript framework.
• You love learning & playing with web technology so much that you've got a side project, go to meet-ups, or contribute to open source.

Things change quickly at early-stage startups, and Curalate is just barely four years old. As a result, we’re especially interested in exceptional problem solving skills and creative out-of-the-box thinking. Above all else, we're looking for others who are as excited about the potential in this space as we are, and who will be willing to join us in moving fast and breaking things as we execute against that vision.
