We value good object oriented design and highly readable code. We work in a fast paced environment, using newer tools when they better meet our needs and proven strategies when they don't. Right now we are utilizing an agile process with shorter iterations, daily stand up meetings, unit tests and code reviews as needed, continuous integration with Jenkins, project organization in Basecamp, time tracking in Harvest, and source code management with GitHub.

Our teams are small so all individuals have vertical responsibilities and work on tasks that have immediate, visible impact. We have daily core hours in an open office plan, so we often work through problems together, face to face, in front of a whiteboard. We also value compelling, intuitive user interfaces, so we work closely with our in house designers when building out UI. Our apps usually consume data from RESTful JSON and XML based web service APIs.

• Learn existing codebases and architect new client application software modules.
• Efficiently implement new features and bug fixes while writing elegant, maintainable code.
• Design and implement object oriented wrappers for REST-style APIs.
