Web Developer at new Human-Centered Social Network Startup

This mid-level Web Developer role at a human-centered social network startup requires a solid foundation in web development principles and practices, supported by a bachelor's degree. The candidate should have experience working on web applications that prioritize user experience and social interaction, indicating familiarity with front-end and back-end development technologies. Proficiency in core web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is essential, along with experience in modern JavaScript frameworks or libraries like React, Angular, or Vue.js to build responsive, interactive user interfaces. On the back-end, knowledge of server-side languages such as Node.js, Python, Ruby, or PHP, and experience with RESTful API design and integration are important to support social networking features. The role likely involves working with databases, so skills in SQL and NoSQL databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MongoDB are valuable. Understanding of version control systems, particularly Git, is expected for collaboration and code management. Given the startup environment, the developer should be comfortable with agile methodologies, continuous integration/deployment pipelines, and possibly cloud platforms such as AWS or Azure. Emphasis on human-centered design suggests the developer must collaborate closely with UX/UI designers and product teams to create accessible, user-friendly interfaces that foster social engagement. Strong problem-solving skills, adaptability, and the ability to work independently and in a team are critical to thrive in this dynamic setting.
