Software Engineer

On the Vistar Media engineering team, we never stop looking for our next addition. We’re kinda hoping that addition is you. We are located in a secret fortress in Center City, Philadelphia on a block protected by children and their sidewalk chalk.

Software Engineer

We’re an early-stage startup. Our code base is tiny. We want you to come in and work with the technologies you want to work with. We want you to help mold the technical foundations on which our product is written.

You must :

• Be very proficient in at least one compiled, one interpreted language and one web framework
• Have extensive experience with distributed systems
• Have coded a non-trival system soup to nuts. CSS, persistence, deployment, et cetera
• Understand Linux to a degree where you’d be comfortable admin’ing a fleet of boxes
• Be able to design and implement a large, efficient codebase
• Be able to ballpark the computational complexity of a snippet of code
• Understand HTTP
• Be able to decompose business requirements into a set of RESTful resources
• Be opinionated about your tools. Love jQuery? Great. Hate jQuery? Great.
• Have experience with the full stack. From the database to CSS.
• Be able to both identify and implement a practical test suite

It sure would be nice if you :
