Front-End Developer

Warby Parker is a transformative fashion brand offering designer eyewear at a revolutionary price while leading the way for socially-conscious businesses.  We're looking for a Front-End Dev who loves building great user experiences and is skilled in the tools necessary to build them. If that sounds like you, we should talk.  You'll be work on a very small team, and you'll own a lot of the projects that you work on. We often release important, high-visibility features that were done by just one developer. That developer often will be you.

Since all work and no play makes a dull office, we’re thoroughly committed to infusing our days with food, surprises, brain-stimulating activities and, when appropriate, costumes. As a team member at Warby Parker you can look forward to catered lunches three times a week, company outings, guest speakers, and all sorts of other goodness.

What you'll do:

• Work with our designers to transform Adobe CS files into beautiful, fast web pages that make a user’s day better
• Work through most of our web stack  — from static HTML and CSS to interactive designs with a lot of JS to the site’s Magento back end
• Create and maintain JS and CSS libraries to use throughout our site

Qualifications:

• Strong, well-formed opinions about what makes for a good user experience
• Experience implementing those opinions in user-facing work
• Expert-level skill in hand-coded HTML and CSS
• Meaningful real-world experience writing jQuery and vanilla JS
• Demonstrable skill in writing high-quality server-side code
• Talent as a writer
• Comfort with the Adobe CS

Extra credit:

• A track record of building interesting and/or challenging side projects
• Magento experience
• Experience developing web sites for iOS and Android
• The gift of flight
