Full-Stack Engineer // API-driven applications

At Xola, you'll be part of a small, but elite team of rockstar engineers. This is a great opportunity to build an incredibly disruptive technology platform from the ground up.

Our products are completely API driven which allows for an incredible amount of flexibility and creativity around the ecosystem we build. We love experimenting with new technologies and doing mash-ups with our APIs and would expect you to be imaginative with them also.

We consider design and usability to be paramount for the success of our product -- both, for our front-end app and our APIs. You're expected to be creative and throw in you're own "special sauce" into our products -- whether it's beautiful animations or fun easter eggs, you'll have the freedom to make the product "yours".


SKILLS AND REQUIREMENTS
=======================

We're looking for someone who is passionate about writing clean, maintainable code and creating a beautiful product. You should come with at least 2 years of experience working on a web product.

We're also pretty big on agile methodologies. At a minimum, you should be familiar with TDD.

We love to experiment but are also careful not to turn the product into a Frankenstein monster. So far, our production tech stack uses:

• RESTful JSON-based APIs
• Symfony2 for our core backend
• Node.js/Express for several microservices
• Javascript/Backbone.js for most of our frontend apps
• React/Redux for some of our newer frontend apps
• MongoDB as our primary data store
• Elasticsearch for realtime analytics
• Redis for caching

... and we're working on many more exciting things!

Our ideal candidate would have expertise in at least 2 of the above technologies.
