Summary

The day typically begins with a stand-up meeting (biweekly scrum), where the development team syncs on project progress and tackles any blockers together. The developer then dives into refining code, integrating APIs, creating new web pages, debugging code and improving code stability. Between writing clean, scalable code and reviewing peers’ code change requests, there’s always time for creative problem-solving and innovation. A random meeting may include a friendly chat with a UX designer or discussion with the marketing team requesting an upgrade to an API. Lunch is 30 minutes daily and our facility has several break room areas and dozens of local restaurants nearby. Throughout the day, our Developer Team is available to help you in your role where your contributions truly matter.
