Hi. We're Think Through Math. We help students gain confidence in math so they can succeed in school, in their career, and in life. We reach a million students in the U.S. and we're on track to double that by 2014. Thanks to our growth we're looking to add a solid front-end developer with design sensibilities to help students make educational breakthroughs on our learning paltform.What you will work on:
Prototyping and wireframing additions to our app
Creating and translating design s from Photoshop or Illustrator in to dynamic front ends that can be integrated in to our back end code (We're a Ruby on Rails shop)
Responsive and mobile template design
User research, demographics, and design validation
Skills we're looking for
Experience with HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Ideally you've used responsive frameworks such as twitter bootstrap or Zurb foundation. Even better if you have a strong opinion on one of these vs. the other (or are passionate about a framework we haven't experienced yet!). We use slim(https://github.com/stonean/slim) for html templating so it helps to know that or have used haml in the past. Your Javascript covers jQuery and Modernizr, plus javascript frameworks like backbone.js and mustache.js. Maybe you know Coffeescript well - that's a bonus too.
An undergraduate degree, preferably in Graphic Design, HCI, Computer Science or similar field, helps, but your portfolio, github/dribbble account is the best way to show what you can do. We're looking for people who design and build cool systems because it's their passion.
We use git for version control so it helps to have worked with git before, but we've helped team members learn git plenty of times.
If you're local to Western PA and you think you're a good match, reach out to us! Even if you're not local, feel free to contact us. We're open to relocation and remote team members if you're a great match.
