If you’ve traveled recently you must have noticed that regardless of the site you visit you find yourself entering the same information over and over again? This is the tedious experience most modern booking sites provide and they are going to fix it.The Lead Front End Engineer should be an expert in vanilla JavaScript having touched all of the major MVC frameworks and can make a case for which is the best tool for what they are trying to accomplish. This is literally a greenhorn project with a focus on building for scale. So they are looking to do this right the first time through.Although this role is architecture and coding heavy there will be some elements of design involved so we are looking for someone who is opinionated about visual design but definitely isn’t a designer.

They provide a PPO plan as well so there is no need for referrals to any specialists. They also have a 401k match, give you the ability to choose your equipment (including iPhone 6S and an Apple Watch), and have an unlimited vacation policy where you are actually encouraged to get away when needed.
