Our inclusive culture is hugely important to us and we are looking for intellectually curious, compassionate people who would like to expand their skills whilst working on a new exciting venture for the firm. We are about bringing new products to market that solve real-world problems for real-life customers, not just innovation for the sake of innovation.

• You will own the content management and delivery solutions that enable web deployment, and define decisions around server environment configuration, clustering, caching, CDN usage and security
• You will ensure that front-end experiences are optimized for SEO, performance, cross-browser compatibility and WCAG accessibility.
• You will build and own relationships with 3rd party vendors to evaluate and integrate external marketing technology platforms.
• You will design and build APIs and highly-available services that deliver personalized, real-time content.
• You will build data pipelines and integrations that connect our services to cloud services and 3rd party tools.

We'd like you to have deep and extensive engineering experience, both as a team lead and as an individual contributor, along with some key technical skills:

• Experience in website development and frameworks (UI/UX Principals, Single-Page Applications, Static Site Generation, Headless CMS, Typescript/JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS3). Experience optimizing for SEO and performance.

We'd also like you to have a few key personal skills. Every organization has its own culture, and we want you to be successful in ours.

• A desire to teach others and share knowledge. We aren't looking for hero developers, more for team players. We want you to coach other team members on coding practices, design principles, and implementation patterns.
• Comfortable in uncharted waters. We are building something new. Things change quickly. We need you to learn technologies and patterns quickly.
• Ability to see the long term. We don't want you to sacrifice the future for the present. We want you to choose technologies and approaches based on the end goals.
• High standards. We are looking for people who expect personal performance and team performance to be nothing short of the best.
• Clarity of thought. We operate quickly and efficiently, and we value people who are economical with their time and clear with their opinions.
• Comfortable working within a geographically distributed team

Technologies we use

• We primarily use JVM based languages (Java/Kotlin) but we also have parts of the platform that use other languages as needed (Go, Python, etc.)
• We look to use Open source/SaaS when it makes sense and build ourselves when it doesn't
• We are entirely cloud native and want to build a truly multi-cloud solution
• We look at each problem independently and pick the right technology to solve it
• We aren't afraid to try new things but we always remember that we are looking to build something to last, and we focus on solving real world problems for real life customers
