We use leading technologies such as Node.js, MongoDB, Backbone.js, and Twitter Bootstrap delivered via a hosted PaaS. We seek aptitude and passion over a keyword match with particular technologies.
TrustRadius (www.trustradius.com) is an online community of business professionals discovering, evaluating, comparing, and discussing best practices for the business software they use every day – think TripAdvisor, Yelp, or Zagat for business software. At TrustRadius you will be working with a successful leadership team with a track record of growing companies from zero to IPO. We are driven and competitive, but believe in work-life balance. We are passionate about our mission and committed to our success, but not at the sacrifice of health and family. We are well-funded but frugal, and test and invest in everything we do.
Job Description:Are you an expert software engineer, interested in online communities like Yelp and LinkedIn and what makes them tick? Are you manically focused on data-driven decision making and quick iteration? Do you believe good ideas can come from anyone on a talented and focused team? Do you want to help change the way people buy and use business software?
We are looking for people who bring intelligence, energy, creativity and a desire to constantly learn to the table. This could be the right position for you if you are looking for opportunity to :
- Get involved in every aspect of product development from requirements through design, implementation and deployment
- Learn something new every week
- Use some of the hottest software technologies
- Operate like a top-notch engineer, not a cowboy. Unit tests, documentation, internationalization are not optional.
TrustRadius seeks an engineer to help drive the implementation and evolution of TrustRadius’ website across the full stack.
Qualifications:The application stack looks like this:
- Front-end – JQuery, Requirejs, Backbone, Bootstrap 3, Jade, Less
- Back-end – Node.js, Redis, MongoDB, ElasticSearch, Heroku
If you’re already an expert in all of these, then that’s great; there aren’t a lot of you. If you’ve got experience building a web application in Ruby or Java with a relational database and strong front-end development skills and a desire to learn, that works too. We’re looking first and foremost for the right people. That said, if you’re not already pretty proficient in JavaScript on the front-end or you’ve never built a scalable/reliable web application, this is probably not the opportunity for you.
Interested? Apply via SmartRecruiters indicating your interest, and a URL with an example of some front-end engineering work you're proud of!
