OVERVIEW
Working closely as a liaison between UX Designers and Django/.NET Developers you will bring enterprise software designs to life. As modules and features are prototyped you will help identify technical challenges and recommend innovative solutions. You will convert production mockups to quality HTML5/CSS/JavaScript - coordinating with other developers to implement front-end features. Most importantly you�ll be instrumental in advocating front-end best practices across a growing development team that is building multiple healthcare web applications.
Responsibilities will include:
- Aid in the development of solutions that support consistent information architecture, taxonomies, visual standards, interaction patterns, and use cases across multiple applications
- Review designs, document front-end technical specifications, and provide time estimates for the implementation of features/fixes
- Convert production mockups to quality HTML5/CSS/JavaScript for multiple enterprise software products
- Self-start and steward your implementations through the software development process ensuring you champion the standards of the UX team in every development challenge
- Maintain a close working relationship with a geographically distributed development team in an evolving agile environment
- Follow common sustainable page design, management, and development methodologies
- Perform testing at the page & source for presentation layer defects
WHAT THIS ROLE IS NOT
- This is not a .NET or Django developer role. Having the ability to program server-side technologies is surely a big plus. It will help you understand the power and limitations of the platform when working with the product development teams. However, you will not be writing C# or Python code in this role.
- This is not a usability analyst or designer role. While knowledge of common usability patterns & practices is a sizable part of this role, it relies heavily on your ability to actually implement the visual treatments and compelling interactions that come about from your close work with the UX Designers.
- This is not a "code-monkey" role. Your creativity & resourcefulness will be a huge part of this position as you provide new ideas for interactions and advanced UI functionality. For each development challenge you will be expected to advocate and take ownership of the entire presentation layer implementation process. You are the �feel� in the �look + feel� equation.
