What you'll do
As a senior front end developer, you architect large-scale, enterprise-level web applications and help define the standards for web development on geocaching.com. You are comfortable leading projects, sharing your technical and architectural expertise, and working side-by-side with designers and backend engineers. You have a passion for building modular, componentized UIs and an uncanny ability to spot reusable patterns from miles away. You work closely with UX/UI designers to prototype and ship new features, develop fast, responsive, and highly interactive mobile-first web experiences, and collaborate with backend engineers to define data contracts and API requirements. You perform peer reviews with other developers, document everything, and lead by example by writing code that is scalable, modular, and robust.
