- owning engineering of entire full-stack features
- performing own QA by building automated test suites
- working with our desktop team to architect and implement SaaS interfaces and provide a unified great user experience
- working closely with product and marketing teams to collect and report on key product usage data and otherwise influencing the product roadmap as you build domain expertise

- 5+ years of experience with large OOP codebases (Java enterprise web apps preferred)
- start-up experience and ability to multi task, define your own role and help wherever necessary
- someone who can help distill the vision into a working prototype and then evolve that to a product serving millions
- ability to move fast and distinguish signal from noise in everyday work life
- extensive experience with agile development
- experience with metric-informed approaches to improving overall product experience

Traits that will distinguish the ultimate candidate:
