Description:

WE EMBRACE A TALENT-LED CULTURE

Our work is driven by our team’s desire to be pioneers.
In 2009, we created Robots & Pencils with the then-contrarian view that mobile would be more transformative than the Internet. Turns out we were right.
Today, our thinking is rooted in the belief that, in the age of unprecedented technology acceleration, maintaining a competitive advantage requires new strategies and a focus on innovation.
Our approach has been to create a company designed to follow the talent, allowing us to amass an unfair share of hyper-skilled people who call Robots & Pencils home. A team of people who not only develop innovative solutions to transform businesses, but also create products that have been previously inconceivable.

BUT WE ALSO KNOW A JOB ISN’T JUST DEFINED BY THE ABOVE, SO WE PRIDE OURSELVES IN BEING A COMPANY THAT ALSO OFFERS:

  • A #FollowTheTalent mentality - meaning you can be located anywhere in North America and work remotely. (We have 10+ years of experience building virtual working environments #WeKnowWhatWereDoing)
  • A dynamic, fast-paced environment where we’re constantly #alwayslearning.
    And lastly, a team that cares about you and wants to drive the talent experience. How do we do this? Over the years we’ve hosted comedian shows, had holiday parties, happy hours, brunches with the CEO, surprise coffee runs for the team, health & wellness events and prizes, trivia nights, surprise dinners for R&P team members and their family and so much more! (And yes, we’ve prioritized a way to do these things in a virtual setting and not just in person - thank you Zoom!)

QUALIFICATIONS:

  • 6+ years of relevant professional experience with preference given to those who have a degree in Computer Science/Engineering or completion of a Tech Bootcamp
  • Must be located in Calgary Alberta or willing to relocate
  • Robust knowledge of native JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, with a preference for working with preprocessors like SASS or LESS
  • Comfortable using precompilers (e.g. - Webpack, Babel)
  • Experience working with React
  • Proficient in working with API’s and third party integrations
  • Demonstrated ability to learn new technologies
  • Strong understanding of responsive design and development
  • Experience with test-driven development and basic understanding of QA Processes
  • Understanding of common user interface guidelines and standards applied to web and mobile
  • Knowledge of project management techniques and the ability to plan, design, develop, test, implement and maintain system development life cycle segments and phases
  • Advanced knowledge of SEO and web analytics practices and platforms

You love working on a team of highly skilled people, all with strong opinions about various technologies, frameworks and approaches to delivery. You are able to articulate your ideas to your colleagues effectively and will take on board the ideas of others. You thrive when faced with new challenges and will constantly look to improve existing processes. You manage your time well and enjoy the little moments where you get to go above and beyond. You take pride in your craft and strive to refine it as often as possible. You value sharing knowledge and helping others, even when it may stretch you.

  • Work on Client products as well as our own products, delivering first-class software
  • Build out mobile APIs and web applications for mobile and browser Clients
  • Peer review other team members’ code, and learn and adapt from peer review of your own code
  • Support sales and project managers with technical insights, leading to the creation of budgets and schedules for projects
  • You apply wisdom and knowledge to resolve issues and challenges while looking for new innovative solution
