The Area: Software Engineering
Axial’s engineers develop technology to drive the transformation and democratization of modern capital markets. In addition to leveraging and building search technology to transform an entire industry, our engineers use their skills to advance our data, social and other technology-driven product strategies and initiatives.
The Role
As a Front-End Engineer at Axial, you’re responsible for developing and refining the client-facing HTML, Javascript and CSS portions of our platform. We’re a tight-knit team here so collaboration is a must. You'll be building technology hands-on with a small product and design team, and be responsible for prototyping and creating responsive and elegant UIs to drive site engagement and manageability.
You’ll also be working to help us improve our service aggregators, applications templating, and client-side libraries, and to extend and improve the power and scale of the Axial platform. You will be challenged to deconstruct designs into fine-grained, distributed modules capable of reuse in any portion of our platform.
You’ll be challenged to engineer great, sustainable technology at high speed, but that’s okay ‘cause you’re a champ.
