Front-End Developer

  • Full-time

Company Description

WE ARE A HUMAN EXPERIENCE AGENCY.

What we do: We help brands get closer to their customers.

Brands today must build stronger customer intimacy in order to keep pace with their competitors. Customers desire human relationships with the brands they buy. They want real-time communications. They expect personalized experiences, mobile experiences, excellent customer service and greater satisfaction. They seek the authenticity that can only come from deep, thoughtful and very personal interactions. We help clients solve this problem by strengthening the human connections between a brand and its customers. Only by applying data-driven human insight to the customer journey can we leverage the right technology at the right time with a compelling, relevant story.

What we do well:

Today, almost 50% of the work we deliver is connected to business intelligence and data analytics. But to be where your customers are, we offer a wide range of marketing resources including Business Intelligence, Creative and Customer Experience, Search and Media, Technology, Relationship Marketing and Analytics and Optimization.

Job Description

Our Luckie Development Team is looking for an impressive Front‐End Developer to join the fun - someone whose spirit melds the art of programming with the art of design. You are an all-star developer who will work with designers to bridge the gap between design and implementation. You will take an active role on both sides--to define how the applications looks, as well as how it works. Are you our Edge?

The Luckie Front-End Developer will build dynamic digital solutions for our clients through the use of HTML, CSS, and Javascript to add dynamic web and social functionality. Ideal candidates will have a can-do attitude, a passion for technology, extensive HTML/CSS development experience, familiarity with Javascript frameworks, the ability to use Photoshop to develop code from comps, and the RPMs to move fast.

Qualifications

  • Ability to work in a team environment: From making pixel perfect sites that meet design requirements to integrating code with the back-end development team.
  • Strong working knowledge of Photoshop; Ability to cut up comps from the design team.
  • Strong HTML skills; Knowledge of how to use appropriate hooks in HTML to build and refine clean semantic HTML; Familiar with HTML5 and with HTML5 polyfills.
  • Deep understanding of CSS inheritance and how to use it to your advantage. Sass knowledge preferred.
  • A good approach for managing maintainable, scalable and cross-browser code across large sites.
  • Familiar with source control principles and comfortable with GitHub.
  • In-depth knowledge of IE quirks and how to address them, as well as all other major browsers and versions.
  • Medium level Javascript experience, familiarity with common libraries necessary, but able to read and write tight, modular, JS.
  • Experience with sites built in a range of backend technologies is a big plus. We work primarily in PHP (WordPress specifically), Ruby on Rails and .Net.
  • Social App Development a plus - experience in building social sites or apps (Facebook, etc.)

  • 3+ years of web development experience

Additional Information

A human experience agency runs on – you guessed it – humans. But not just any humans. Exceptional, smart, nice, curious humans who are hungry for answers and full of ideas.

A career at Luckie is not about having a typical background: It’s about the marketer/designer hybrid who loves crowdsourcing. And about the social media pro who brainstorms brand partnerships between meetings. And the creative who understands the power of big data.

The business of human engagement isn’t a cut-and-dried one, and our jack-of-all-trades employees are the people who prove it. It’s a good time to be at Luckie. Plus, there are doughnuts.
