Job Description As a well-rounded software engineer, you should definitely be the type that appreciates diversity in your day, and challenges outside of your comfort level! You will own the entire front-end application, so you must come armed with a solid understanding of programming principles, have a nearly magical intuition for good UI, and excellent understanding of front-end frameworks.
A typical day in the life of a PacketFabric software engineer might include these types of activities:
- Architecting completely new features - such as an accounts receivable front-end - with code reuse, client experience, and speed in mind.
- Scrutinizing page load times and refactoring code to optimize user experience for viewing large data sets with thousands, and tens of thousands of items.
- Working closely with the UI/UX and product leads to add intuitive features, such as a new tax refund tool for accounts receivable.
- Working with back-end engineers and discussing quirks in the accounting systems and rules which translate to rapid API and UI changes.
- Interacting with internal customers and/or sales on a bug in the software, quickly resolving it, and coordinating across the team to push a fix.
- Researching additional ideas you may have, like providing better visualizations for revenue reports.
Skills & Requirements The right candidates will have an extreme abundance of hard-core programming skills, have solid instincts for usability and creating beautiful functional web applications. You are probably a full stack developer who naturally gravitates towards front-end work. You know how to sacrifice algorithm elegance, for getting it done on deadline. You don't even need to be reminded of safe/secure programming practices, because things as simple as session security are inherent to your nature. More specifics include:
- Extensive previous experience with Javascript and all in a highly maintainable format.
- Experience with one of these frameworks: Vue.js, Angular or AngularJS.
- Experience creating large scale data visualizations of any type.
- A solid foundation of OO programming paradigms and Git.
- Be completely at home on the *nix command line and have previous experience with a programming language typically used for back-end applications (preferably Python).
- Experience writing code that interacts asynchronously with detailed APIs on complex logic flows.
- Previous exposure to accounting concepts and practices. A huge plus for previous work with or on accounting systems.
- Never being afraid to venture boldly where none have gone before and develop code where there are no previous libraries to draw from.
