Competitive Salary, benefits, and generous options.

SnapDocs is a early-stage, rapidly growing company looking for a front end developer. The ideal candidate loves beautiful web pages and has a strong interest in UX. We believe in good design and we are data driven. So far, we've been pleasantly surprised to find out that these are not mutually exclusive.

We're a small team tackling the absolutely massive mortgage market. We're bringing elegant software to a field that still relies on fax machines and manilla envelopes.

Everyday, our clients call and email to say that we're making them happy, and that feels great. However, in this industry, most people are unaware of what modern software is capable of. That means we must do research, gather data and talk to customers to inform each of our choices.

Snapdoc's culture is one that trusts its team members to make smart decisions. This means we value both independent work as well as seeking collaboration. We're becoming ubiquitous in one segment of the market and we're looking to hire another core engineer to help us expand further.

==Job Description and Required Skills==

* Can take a mock and make it a crisp, responsive page.

* UX experience (or interest in cultivating it) would be excellent.

* Being the 5th technical member of on a fast-growing company. This means helping to form a healthy and happy culture. We strive to be respectful of each other's time and point of view. We're learning how to do this together. We want to create a place where it's OK to fail, and that you know the team has your back the whole way through.

* Self-motivated. To us that means when you get an interesting problem, you will rip into it until you understand its nuances and perhaps have a glimpse of the solution.

* Empathy. We work closely with our customers, meaning phone calls, emails, and sometimes lunch. It is important in this job to listen to them so that we can build what they need and want.

* Nice to have: familiarity with Rails
