If you’ve seen the buzz lately, you’ll know AOL is hitting the re-set button with a new, proven A-player executive management team (including Microsoft's Alex Gounares as CTO), spin off as an independent publicly traded company, recent acquisitions like Patch.com and deep financial resources. There’s no denying that innovation is happening.
To help us lead the charge in making the Internet better through innovation and creativity, we’re looking for a team of rock star front-end software engineers to build simple, fast, intuitive and engaging UI for AOL Mail, a flagship product that reaches 30M+ unique visitors monthly and spans across every touch point for communication - Mail, Calendar, Instant Messaging, Social Streams and Mobile. This position reports into management for the AOL Mail development team, which falls under the Consumer Applications Group run by President & Head of Silicon Valley Operations Brad Garlinghouse.
Desired candidates have 2-5 years of solid, hands-on experience as a front-end engineer developing highly scalable, consumer-facing Web applications. Mobile is a big plus. AJAX, HTML and CSS are a must, along with the passion and motivation to simply redefine the way people share and connect.
Additional requirements:
* Experience developing with Web Services and APIs
* Knowledge of Javascript frameworks is a plus
* Knowledge of Server side technologies (C++/Java) is also a plus
* Undergraduate degree in computer science or equivalent education preferred
