Who the heck are we?
Are you in to disruptive innovation?  Fired up to transform education?  Join our growing team.
We’re a scrappy, fast-growing startup, owner-operated, and privately held.  We’re in Chinatown, not Herndon, so you can sell your car and walk to work.  Choose your Friday happy hour specialty. Choices include: Rock Band, karaoke, and foosball.
If you're relentless and resourceful, a lifelong learner, a major contributor, and ready to change the status quo, we want to talk to you.
What would you do?
You've got years of Java experience, and have built some pretty slick web apps. HTML, CSS, Javascript: you've got it. And yet you feel like you're being held back. Your old job is still stuck in the 2000's. You're sick of Struts, sick of Spring, sick of JSP and think "I could build a better web framework than this". You post your personal projects to GitHub when you get the time to do something cool, but it's not as much as you'd like.
And then you see this post. And you think: Who would do that? Who would have 10% time projects, and happy hours every Friday? Who would have an office dog and a ping-pong table?
Here come the specs:
You will:
* Design, implement and test new features using a variety of the latest technologies under our customized version of the agile development methodology
* Contribute across the technology stack, from the interactive web and mobile front-end to the clustered object-oriented application layer to the back-end database
You bring:
* Minimum two years development experience (if you have more we will pay for it so don't be afraid to apply)
 * Proficiency with Java 5
 * 1 year experience developing interactive web applications using AJAX
 * Proficiency with JavaScript, CSS, and HTML
 * Familiarity with agile development processes
 * Strong communication skills (you’ll work directly with clients)
 * Interest in being involved in the UI design process
 * Experience with jQuery or AngularJS is a plus
