• Expressing your mastery: You will emphasize changeability, simplicity, testability, and polish in order to quickly deliver exemplary code that performs well and that your less experienced teammates will learn from. • Setting an Example for Team Collaboration: You will be on a cross-functional delivery team composed of Designers, Product Managers, and other Engineers, with QA support. You will assist in building shared understanding of goals, and you put your team’s success before your own. • Improving our Ecosystem: We have an incredible set of tools and practices, but it can always be better. We want you to utilize your experience to find opportunities for your delivery team, and for the engineering department to improve. If the team is bought in, you will take ownership and make your initiatives real. • Raising the Bar: Your more junior teammates and peers will consistently show improvement based on opportunities that you help them identify. You will guide them to solutions rather than give them answers. Bottom Line – You will write software that meets the expectations of quality for Popmenu Engineering, and you will hold your teammates accountable to do the same. You will collaborate cross-functionally, always trusting your teammates to have the best intentions, and you will buy in to playing as a team to win.
