Software Engineer - New York, United States - Fountain-Fort Carson School District 8

    Default job background
    Description


    As a Software Engineer - Front End in the Fountain Worker Experience team, you will be part of a dedicated product team of 3 to 4 developers throughout the entire product cycle, which includes planning, architecture, development, and maintenance of the Fountain products.

    To succeed in this position, it is important to have a proven track record of working with rich enterprise products and a solid technical background in frontend development.

    New products are released every quarter, with a focus on product-based software development. It is important that you are comfortable with this approach.

    You will be expected to make decisions even when faced with uncertainty, and you will have the freedom to do so.

    Identify and resolve performance constraints, optimizing applications for peak speed, scalability, and user convenience

    Stay up-to-date with industry trends, continuously seeking opportunities to enhance the user experience


    What you should bring:
    Minimum of 5 years of extensive software engineering experience, specializing in front-end development

    Demonstrated track record in a product-focused software development

    Proficiency in modern front-end technologies, including but not limited to:

    React, TailwindCSS, MUI, Vite, Vitest/Jest, Playwright, Storybook

    Strong problem-solving abilities with a keen eye for user interactions and system architecture

    Ability to bridge Figma prototypes and code seamlessly, showcasing a keen sense of UI/UX considerations

    Solid understanding of responsive design principles and mobile-first development

    Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, to foster effective collaboration with team members and stakeholders

    A passion for creating user-centric designs and a drive to stay up to date with the latest trends in UI/UX

    Capability to work autonomously and confidently, even amidst dynamic circumstances

    Demonstrated ability to identify misaligned UI components, irregular spacing, color inconsistencies, and UI component malfunctions

    Proficiency in Agile methodologies, with a history of collaboration within cross-functional teams

    Experience in B2B SaaS startup environments and remote international settings is strongly preferred
