?Front-End Engineer Job Description
We are Bidfire, a leader in the
competitive shopping and experience
auction market. Our business and
traffic are growing like mad. To
meet that growth, we are seeking
fantastic developers like you with
experience building and operating
large, online services. We are a
small team, so we wear a lot of
hats (design, implementation,
operations, capacity planning, beer),
and you shouldn't just be OK
with doing that, you should love it.
You should dream in code (if you
sleep). You should laugh in the
face of sleep (if you aren't dreaming
in code). You should explode
with energy to build something big.
You should join us.
Required:
- Insatiable curiosity
- Insomnia
- Absolutely
stellar skills as a developer
Desirable:
- Production
experience with Ruby/Rails, disciplined in performance tuning and
scaling
- Production experience with XHTML/CSS/jQuery (able
to write plugins, not just use them)
- Production experience
with common systems automation (Puppet, Chef, etc)
Bonus:
- Active contributor to open source projects
- Experience
with real-time long poll systems with insane response and uptime
requirements
- Love high pressure environments where daily
contributions affect entire company, and you appreciate seeing the
impact you have.
Self-described "Ninjas" and "Rockstars" need not
apply.
To apply: Please send cover letter and resume to: jobs@bidfire.com
