[KITlist-Tech] Google Web Toolkit Developer (San Francisco, Ca)

Please direct your responses to: ashley@coitgroup.com

Our companies social software makes feedback and coaching easy and fun. We´re a well funded, Toronto-based start-up with a killer team, a growing community of users, partners and customers (including cool ones like Mozilla, Digg, and Adaptive Path), great buzz, and superb investors. We´re moving fast, building neat stuff, and we´re trying to change the world. We´re looking for awesome engineers to join our team.

Our engineering team is passionate, collaborative, smart, and gets things done. We´ve got skills in enterprise and web-app development, usability, gaming, social media, and mobile. Our work environment is creative and laid-back, but very focused on the fast-paced delivery of user value. We care about outcomes, not "formal process" or "our way". We´re flexible — with tools, technology, and our approach. We don´t like waste and we like to iterate.

If you have a proven track record of building successful software (e.g. people love what you create), then we want to talk to you. If you want to go fast, create a great user experience, and work on something that millions will use, you should talk to us. If you don´t think its crazy to build both scalable, high-quality applications and release early and often — then you´ll like it here.

Description:

* Join our dev team to design and build our online apps and the infrastructure we run our business on.
* Regularly deal with users, customers, and our industry partners. You´ll be expected to come up with new ideas to create value, and then implement and improve on those ideas.
* Be a generalist with technology but a specialist with building world class applications.
* Be highly adaptable to technical challenges and thrive in an adaptive environment.
* Be disciplined and get stuff done.

You´ve gotta have:

* CS or Engineering degree
* 3+ OOP and Java
* 2+ years building online apps w/ both front-end and back-end web development (Apache, MySQL, HTML, CSS, XML, Linux)
* Communication skills (as in, you like to talk to customers and co-workers in plain English — you will be expected to get on the phone with users!)
* Demonstrated attention to the tiniest of details

We´d love to see experience with:

* Google Web Toolkit
* Large web application system architecture
* Social web application design
* Web APIs (REST, Facebook, Twitter, OpenSocial)
* J2EE and Hibernate
* Deploying and maintaining web server technology
* Lean and Agile dev approaches

Extra Special Points:

* "Nunchuku skills, bow hunting skills, computer hacking skills..."
* Teleportation, transmogrification, and/or telepathy
* Sweat the fine print: Include a definition of Kobayashi Maru and you´re guaranteed to have your application reviewed.
