• We’re using the latest in technology. As a progressive retailer providing first-in-class customer service and design services through our physical stores and robust ecommerce site, our technology stack is current. We’re doing a lot of fun and exciting things and we’re encouraged to pursue new technologies.
• The code is complex. Our product assortment is vast, diverse and often custom, so there’s a lot of depth and complexity in our business requirements and domain. We’re given the room to solve in a creative way and do the best work we can.
• Quality is in everything we do. Our "Technical Debt" is low. We believe in doing it right the first time. We take time to go back and fix things before moving on too quickly and refactor old code to make it better.
• We’re a peer group of developers who drive technology. We’re not rigid and restricted by hierarchy; we’re fairly flat and work together with the technical freedom to determine what makes the best sense. Our team builds the deadlines based on what it’ll take to do things right.
• Workspace that inspires. Our creativity is further fueled by our beautiful work environment - natural light and vegetation, well-designed workspaces, an indoor gym, fitness studio and workout facility.
