  • A transparent and clear communicator with the ability to simplify sophisticated concepts for Pluralsight learners and clients.
  • A builder with a curious mind and exceptional attention to detail, who loves crafting outstanding software.
  • A forward thinking technologist with an appreciation for human centered product design. You'll work in a cross functional capacity to understand customer needs and invent on their behalf to enable even better solutions than what we have today.

Ways we work:

  • Provide architectural, strategic, and scale recommendations for both front-end and back-end development
  • Test-Driven Development - we take ownership for our code without QA engineers
  • Pair programming - we value collaborative development
  • Continuous Delivery - teams independently ship code to prod every day
  • Kanban & Lean - no more backlog grooming, no more T-shirt size estimating
  • Continual improvement - we take time to sharpen the saw and adjust how we work
  • Human centered design - involved engineers who participate in customer research through the design and implementation to ensure we are addressing our customer's needs
  • Autonomous & responsible teams - collaborate with Product Manager and Product Designer to better understand the customer, provide valuable input into project feasibility and timeline estimation, standards, layouts, navigational features, functional design, and usability
  • Cross-functional teams - collaborating through all phases of the product dev process
