The Context Our startup is making money, so it's time to build out our development team. We're looking to anchor it around a young, but fiercely interested individual. You'd work alongside the CTO to evolve each of our 3 interlinked systems: A feature-phone-friendly web portal for artisans A polished customer facing web app A raw but rich internal control panel Approaching each of these requires a distinct mindset. You'll need to shift between each of them. The Need You'll need to have an eye for a design, backed by some real processing power, since if you aren't one already, you'll become a full stack engineer. Also, you'll need to be able to understand and engage with the business holistically. We'd like to care about you, so you need to be able to make that easy for us.
