We are a closely-held web and mobile application development firm and we are looking for a driven Front-end Developer.  Are you experienced and current in your JavaScript and front-end construction skills?  Do you have depth in React, Redux and maybe even server-rendering frameworks like Next.js?  Looking for a no-politics zone to do your best work?  Mercury is the place for you!

The Work

The Front-end developer will be engaged in a range of web application development including:

• Large-scale web application development with ReactJS
• Develop Progressive Web Applications
• Custom business applications utilizing rich HTML5/CSS3/JavaScript-driven front ends
• Participate in full-stack JavaScript application development including Node.JS

Skills & Requirements

The position requires strong application development using JavaScript, React, HTML5, CSS3 and related ecosystem tooling.  Experience with Redux and TypeScript are key supporting skills while mature development expertise in the construction of isomorphic JavaScript single page applications is key. 

Mercury's front end and JavaScript developers possess strong skills in the above technologies and just as important front end design patterns, common interface frameworks and testing.  A passion for web standards and modern interface/JavaScript frameworks is also pretty darn important.

Some Specifics

At Mercury you will:

• Live and thrive in React, JavaScript and single page applications
• Build modular React components with directives and ES2017, ES2016, ES6 and whatever they call it next
• Work with a full team following GitFlow with regular pull requests and continuous deployment pipelines
• Write RESTful API specs for back end devs to construct or for you to construct with Node.JS
• Deploy solutions to the cloud including Azure and AWS

Proficiency and comfort on Agile teams (specifically, Scrum with 2 week sprints) will be a major plus for this position.

• Web, mobile and collaboration applications for the Southeast's fastest growing commercial real estate firms
• Progressive web application (PWA) for one of the nation’s leading furniture retailers
• Ecommerce, operational management and transactional reporting system for a funded late-stage startup
