We're looking to make a key hire for lead frontend engineer. We love backbone.js and are excited to move more and more of our site to it.<p>Job description: The ideal candidate wants to use backbone.js, jquery, web standards, etc., to make our site amazing (signup flow, dynamic pages, chat, etc.). Please be good at js, css, html, web standards, and not averse to making things work on recent versions of IE. Parts of it could really use some love. Don't judge us, we haven't hired you yet.<p>As lead frontend engineer you'll guide our approach and you'll be granted 20% time to dedicate to giving back to the backbone ecosystem. Plugins, extensions, docs, etc.<p>We're growing and so we want to create a frontend codebase that sells our team whenever anyone views the source. This is hugely important.<p>We're in San Francisco. We'll invite a few interested candidates to join our team dinner at Foreign Cinema for dinner this week to meet the team and to look over our codebase in detail. We will hire more than one person if more than one amazing person comes forward.<p>Email matt@styleowner.com if you're interested. Also we'll PayPal you a $1K finders fee if we hire a friend you recommend. This is a key hire for us, so apologies if you are sick of seeing job posts.<p>I'll omit the jargon and pitch words from this, but I'm fully transparent about everything and will fill you in via phone, email, gchat or in person.
