Front End Engineer (Typescript/ JavaScript) | Red Digital

Red Digital is working to build best-in-class technology to drive digital transformation for our nationally recognized clients. As a Red Ventures company, we have more than 20 years of experience building strategic relationships with some of the world’s most powerful brands across industries like telecom, financial services, real estate, and entertainment.

Enjoy building cutting edge websites for national brands, or single page applications used by thousands every day?  Each day, you'll create, code and optimize websites and user experiences in a workplace where you can see the impact of your ideas. We are all about teamwork, accountability, innovation, and a customer-first approach. We work hard but do so in a collaborative, fun, and flexible work environment.

Don’t meet all the requirements, but feel you would be a great fit, we encourage you to please apply and outline how your experience fits!

What You'll Do:

• Collaborate closely with business and design teams to scope and deliver valuable projects on time.
• Design, implement, modify and test engaging, consumer-facing web experiences.
• Teach and learn new skills with your fellow developers, producing quality code with consistent standards.
• Continually look for opportunities to build value in the codebase: set standards, build tools, and automate jobs to make yourself and your team better and faster.
• Demonstrate a sharp eye for detail. Debug issues and execute so everything “just works.”
• Add to a culture that loves experimentation, Agile development, and intellectual curiosity.
• Be part of building a positive team environment.

What We're Looking For:

• 3+ years experience in front end web development
• Strong HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript fundamentals: you should be comfortable working with the command line and git, you should be capable of building things with HTML, CSS, and JS.
• We don’t need you to be a designer, but we want someone who can partner closely with our talented design team. Experience with InVision and Figma is helpful.
• Working knowledge of the way front-end systems run in the cloud and download to the browser. Can you diagnose a caching problem with a CDN, and do you know how to fix it?

Even Better:

• Experience with page speed optimization. Working knowledge of web image formats, font loading techniques, and strategies for optimizing Core Web Vitals.
• Experience implementing Web Accessibility Standards.
• Experience building websites with React or Vue. 
• Ability to wrangle build systems. Webpack? Parcel? Gulp? Do you know the difference between “npm i” and “npm ci,” and when they should be used? Can you compile CSS from SASS while adjusting for certain browser compatibility?
• Experience with New Relic or other application performance management tools.
• You volunteer or mentor fellow developers
