About You
You are a talented front-end web developer with a passion for building reliable and responsive web applications using the latest client-side technologies. You love to bring great designs to life on both mobile and desktop devices. You are a great fit for a collaborative team environment where you can apply and hone your skills and share your knowledge and experience.
What We Do
We are building a global cryptocurrency wallet and exchange. Our mission is to eliminate the barriers to entry and open up the blockchain economy to everyone. We're taking a new and exciting approach to the user experience to ensure anyone can participate with confidence.
You'll also help us to bring Personal Blockchains to the world. Personal Blockchains are an application of blockchain technology allowing for proof of integrity between the user and our service. They represent a new standard of accountability where any single user has the power to hold us accountable for every transaction, no matter how large our company grows. Symetria is the first to implement Personal Blockchains, but we're offering it freely to the world, and our goal is to spread the idea to other industries -- to change the way business is done.

As part of a Scrum team and working in close collaboration with our UX and visual designers, you are responsible for building, deploying and managing the front-end, consumer-facing tier of our platform. Together with your team members, you ensure the quality, performance, scalability and security of this application tier. Embracing our philosophy of continuous improvement, you are always looking for ways to better our code, architecture, tool chain, hosting infrastructure and team processes. As an agile practitioner, you consistently and constructively participate in all team practices: sprint planning, daily standups, estimation, backlog grooming, sprint demos and retrospectives.
