Front-end Developers play a critical role in most projects at Code and Theory. They are actively involved throughout the project lifecycle, oftentimes starting with rapid prototypes early in the design phase.
In some cases, the end goal is high-fidelity prototypes, but most of the time the developers will ultimately be writing clean, production-ready code, which will be integrated with the backend / APIs and refined via the QA process.
A Front-end Developer will remain engaged through the launch to ensure that everything functions and performs at the highest level and must work very closely with the design team, not only to identify gaps and vet the designs for feasibility but also to help inform the experience design through a technical lens.
This is particularly important in the increasingly responsive web, where developers and designers need to work hand-in-hand to find solutions to a wide range of design challenges.
This role is specifically responsible for working with our Enterprise team to maintain our proprietary internal agency management system.
