Front End Developer

at August in Melbourne

After four years of steady growth and a fast expanding client list, we’re ready to take on a like-minded developer, with an eye for quality and detail. We’re seeking a developer’s developer; someone capable of growing with the role and potentially becoming a lynch pin member of the team, over the long term.

Here at August, you’ll work and collaborate on a variety of web–based projects of the highest calibre — it’s the kind of work that gets international web gallery kudos and even pulls the odd award nomination.

We expect that you would be someone that is thoroughly immersed in the online/digital space and be totally up–to–speed with the latest trends and technologies. More than anything, we’re looking for an proactive person. We won’t ask you to reinvent the wheel, but if you see the opportunity to improve, enhance or innovate — go for it! Got opinions? We want to hear them.

If this sounds like you, we suggest you get in touch now.

• Provide enhancements for various existing projects including existing shopping-enabled CMS system
• Provide technical support, solutions and recommendations
• Work closely with key team members to ensure projects are well–executed

• Advanced understanding of HTML, CSS and jQuery
