Amazing opportunity to join the next great tech company in early stage. A very exciting, first to market, fully funded, tech start up in NYC with a product ready to launch, is looking to hire a senior full stack developer/VP of Engineering/CTO ASAP. The MVP product was built by the founders of Vine. The pilot has been very successful. The investors and board members are high visibility strategic partners. Position involves building out from MVP to full product with extensive feature sets, app development, growing and overseeing in-house/outsourced tech team, strategic partner to executive corporate leadership.
The platforms include a fully responsive website (to work on desktop,tablet, and mobile) as well as an accompanying Facebook widget. We use Node/Express with a MySQL backend. MySQL provides the underlying data structure while Redis is used for session and for quick access of simple data structures when needed. Balanced Payments is used for payments and cash outs. jQuery, Underscore, UIkit and LESS are the primary front end technologies. Given that the code is in node, all the programming is asynchronous (callback/event based). As far as the structure of the code, we use a custom version of express setup MVC style.
