You’ll Love This Role If You… (What Excites Us)

• Have a growth mindset: You don't know everything yet, and that's okay. You are optimistic, resilient, and excited to learn more and to grow your career.
• Want to work as part of a team: You value collaboration and truly believe in the value of diverse and inclusive teams.
• Are Outcome Driven: You’re enthusiastic, passionate and keen to deliver impactful results
• Have a solid grasp of web fundamentals: You understand semantic HTML and the importance of accessibility. You are comfortable with CSS concepts like the Box Model and Flexbox and can translate a design into code.
• Know enough JavaScript to be dangerous: You have a good handle on modern JavaScript (ES6+) and the DOM. If you have experience with a framework like Angular, React, or Vue, that’s a bonus, but strong core skills are what we value most.
• Are curious about the Back End: While you might lean towards the Front End, you are interested in learning how our platform works (Ruby on Rails and Python) and how to build the APIs that power our UI.
• Have a quality mindset and a passion for writing clean, secure code while also keeping an eye for opportunities for improvements.

It would be great if you also have

• Exposure to Angular or Ruby on Rails through personal projects, bootcamps, or previous internships.
• An understanding of the difference between synchronous and asynchronous code (Promises/Observables).
• Experience using the command line/terminal to run your tools.
• Experience using an AI coding assistant.
