Responsibilities
Programming. You'll be trusted to create or collaborate on various projects that assist our company to deliver high-quality products and services to our global audience.
Requirements Gathering. You will need to collaborate with a diverse group of professionals, both internal to our company as well as external entities, to gather specifications for new projects and translate them to software requirements.
Operations. As part of the automation team, you will collaborate with product managers, designers, dev-ops and infrastructure engineers, and software support staff to solve technical problems, maintain existing products, and help design, build, test, and deploy new solutions.
Ownership. You will be expected to communicate openly and clearly within the company, learn from others, adapt to your team's development practices, contribute based on your skills and experience, and eventually take ownership of features and projects.

Web skills. Familiarity with web server-side technologies, preferably PHP. A solid grasp of front-end technologies such as HTML, CSS, JS; familiarity with one or more modern web application frameworks (e.g. React) is appreciated. You should also be familiar with SQL and know your way around a database server.
Commitment. You should be able to control your source (code can get wild sometimes) and be close friends with the Git versioning system. You’ll level up if you can navigate your way out of a merge conflict - extra if you are on GitHub.
