We need a #kickass #frontenddeveloper (RO)

We are CarnationGroup, one progressive digital agency in Central Europe with offices in Budapest, Bucharest and Vienna, tons of work and superexciting projects spanning across the region. We ideate, design, develop, code, research, plan, measure and optimize. Oh, and we have a lot of fun too.

Our Bucharest team is continuously expanding, this time we need an experienced frontend developer. Besides familiarity with current frontend technologies this position requires a high level of precision, efficiency and a keen eye for detail. You'll have to take designs and make them usable. Often times you'll have to argue with our graphic designers over custom scrollbars, dropdowns and rounded edges. It will be tough, we can guarantee you that. But you will be able to experiment a lot and do category-defining work, and collect a number of FWAs, aWWWards and other trophies along the way, as we have done in the past.

This is what you must know (the usual stuff):

• HTML, HTML5, CSS2.1, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery
• cross-browser and cross-device optimization
• social APIs (FB, Twitter, 4sq, YouTube, Google Apps etc.)
• basic Photoshop skills
• fluency in English

You'll get an interview within 3 days if you know:

• canvas animations
• WebGL
• backend technologies (PHP, Zend, Smarty or .net)
• wireframing/prototyping

Best of all? No CV required, just send links to your code or a zip file with samples!

You also need to be fluent in English, self-confident enough to stand by your ideas and present them to the client yourself. Last but not least you need to be a team player.

You will...

• develop and manage the premier business assignments for your function
• demonstrate conceptual skills
• handle multiple projects at one time, hell yeah
• write in diverse copy styles across a range of assignments
• drive the idea function in client meetings
• mentor Copywriters
• estimate work accurately

Your are someone...

• with at least 3 - 4 years of experience creating and implementing innovative and highly intuitive copy for interactive work
• who possess a deep passion and understanding of interactive media
• with expert written, verbal and presentation skills
• who not only use, but understand social media, apps and have an appetite for everything digital and you also work with and understand CMS systems
