Flex Application Developer

Description:

This is not your typical Flex programming role – Mixbook is a complex Flex application with many highly technical components. We are looking for someone who is a well-rounded computer scientist in addition to an expert Flex developer. This would be demonstrated by a CS degree, knowledge of more traditional programming environments, or projects that show deep engineering ability. We love to see candidates who have worked on impressive Flash applications that they can demonstrate for us. We favor candidates who can show us they have a keen product sense and will contribute good ideas for improving the product.

Role:

• Launch new features and improvements to Mixbook’s core Flex platform application, the Mixbook Creator.
• Develop and improve Mixbook’s Flash widgets for viewing and sharing photo products.
• Balance innovative new features with performance and speed for optimal user experience.
• Think creatively about the future of Mixbook, generate feature ideas, and implement them.

Qualifications:

• Passion for building a great product that everyone will use and love – your friends and family will be in awe.
• Experience with ActionScript 3 and Flash Builder.
• Very strong object-oriented development skills (Java, C++, etc).
• Strong communication skills – if you have a problem with something, you speak up.
• Extremely hard working. You should be ready to make Mixbook a priority in your life.
• Thrive on working with A-players. You’re too good to spend long hours with B-players.
• Familiar with unit testing, design patterns and component lifecycle development.
• Easy to get along with – people like you and like working with you. And they\‘ll tell us that!
• B.S. in Computer Science or equivalent. Coders at all levels should apply.
