What are some challenges?We move fast and sometimes change directions. We can’t always wait for all the information before we try something. If you want us to guarantee exactly what you’ll be working on three months from now, we can’t give you that. On the other hand, there is a lot of high value work to do, and it won’t be boring. There is a lot of discovery work involved as we frequently do things that are ahead of current technology.One of our values is playing for the team so you may need to sometimes put aside personal objectives in order to help meet more urgent company objectives, but others will do the same for you.Behind the scenesWe use a variety of technology and tools that currently include JavaScript, React, Three.js, Webpack, WebGL, Node.js, Kotlin, Swift, MongoDB, Clickhouse and Superset.
