This is a full time position in our Fairfax, VA office.
Founded in 1999, ThinkGeek is a close-knit group of fun and enthusiastic people who invent the coolest geek gadgets, such as the iCade, the playable electronic guitar t-shirt, and the taun-taun sleeping bag.
Much of our software is developed in-house, so projects will run a wide gamut of business areas (accounting to warehouse management, and everything in between). Development will be on an existing suite of software, so the ability to adapt to and extend an existing architecture is a must.
Main job responsibilities:
- Develop highly-scalable and secure web applications designed to satisfy and engage both internal and external customers.
- Create and maintain a variety of technologies from AJAX based user interfaces to third-party XML business integration feeds.
- Participate in requirements and specifications gathering processes.
- Develop tests, predict areas of risk, and coordinate with our QA staff to achieve the best blend of error prevention and error detection possible.
- Take ownership of your projects from planning to stakeholder happiness.
