We're looking for a Front End Software Engineer with a JavaScript focus to help us build great applications. Our engineers work in small, cross-functional teams that emphasize iteration and learning. It's a collaborative culture, with lots of pairing and discussion. We're working with enterprise-scale customers to solve real business problems. Along the way, you'll get to work with modern technologies and great people in a startup culture.

If you'd like the chance to make an impact, we'd love to hear from you!

The Gig

• Design and build our client-side web apps using Angular, React, and related technologies
• Plan for enterprise scale and performance, improving quality and maintainability as you go
• Collaborate with the Design team to transform vision into great user experience
• Collaborate with the Customer Success and Product teams to identify and deliver the value in our products
• Share best practices and mentor others on the Engineering team in the areas where you're an expert
• Learn and grow, picking up new technologies and patterns as the product and the industry evolves. While experience is not required, you’ll be working with Angular, ECMAScript 6, Webpack, Gulp, Jasmine/Karma, React, and RESTful API

About You

• You love to code. You understand basic design patterns, data structures, and algorithms
• You've got 2+ years experience in software engineering 
• You've got deep experience building web apps with modern JavaScript frameworks, but you know that tech is dynamic so you’re not married to one approach
• You’re comfortable using current testing frameworks to build rock solid enterprise level web applications
• We’re not married to a particular tech or set of tools. Right now we’re using AngularJS, Ruby, REST, and Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), so experience in any of those areas would benefit you!
• You care about performance and how it impacts the customer experience
• You’re self-motivated and have a knack for bringing folks together on a problem 
• You’re innately curious and fanatical about learning, especially when it comes to understanding dev best practices, community trends, and techniques
• You’re positive, adaptable, and always ready to pitch in and help 

Our Radical Culture

Our culture is at the core of everything we do. We have fun, but we work hard. So, as we grow we’re not only looking to hire the best and brightest, but we’re also looking for people that share our values. This is the code we live by:

• Think big. Do bigger. Big ideas are meant to be pursued. We have a bias for action, iteration, and impact.
• Be Customer Inspired. Our customers’ toughest challenges inspire us to build innovative software. We delight them by deeply understanding their business and driving results.
• Partner. We’re approachable, dependable, and collaborative. We go above and beyond to help our customers, our partners, and one another succeed.
• Thrive. We revere personal and professional growth. We recognize individuality, embrace authenticity, and celebrate each other’s success.

The Good Stuff

Founded in Austin, Texas, we’ve been bootstrapped and profitable since our start in 2006. Along the way we’ve added a slew of benefits + perks inspired by our team of Radicals. Here’s a sample: 

• Flexibility: no dress code, office hours, or vacation policy
• Competitive benefits and compensation
• Cozy campus of five 1920’s craftsman homes in downtown 
• Radicals get $3,000 a year to learn anything (seriously!)
