Our tribe in Toronto is passionate about our craft and pursues excellence in all that we do. From awareness to brand advocacy, we create meaningful interactions on all digital platforms. Last, but not least, (we think), we are fun to be with.

You are calm under pressure, accountable and a blend of creative, analytical and technical. You are able to work independently, as well as part of a team, and have a proven ability to meet deadlines, and effective verbal and written communications skills. Most importantly, you embrace change and are continually excited about how emerging technologies and trends can play a part in developing bold, unique, timeless ideas.

The Opportunity
Tribal Toronto is seeking an Backend Node.js Developer who loves imagining and building experiences on all interactive platforms — desktop, mobile, tablet, kiosks, digital signage, etc. In this role, you are responsible in supporting the development life cycle of digital initiatives. This includes requirements analysis, determining optimal technical solutions, and implementation based on design requirements. You love collaborating with designers and consider yourself a creative coder.

Specifically, your role will include, but is not limited to:

•  Understanding business requirements and specifying technical requirements
•  Providing advice and recommendations from a developer perspective at early project stages; serving as a sounding board for technical feasibility
•  Applying knowledge of development standards and, when appropriate, developing reusable components that positively impact future projects
•  Abiding to code standards and best practices, and growing them together as a team
•  The primary stack you work with will include: Node.js, MongoDB, REST APIs, along with some work in Angular, HTML5, CSS. Note there are 2 front-end developers on the team, plus solid IA/UX designers.

You don't have to have experience with each of the technologies listed, but we expect have used a few of them and are keen to learn the others quickly. Here's a few things we're looking for:

•  3+ years experience on the server-side (at least one of: Python, Rails, PHP, Java, or .NET).
•  1+ years experience with Node.js, either on your own side projects or in your day-to-day work.
•  1+ years exeprience with MongoDB or other noSQL database.
•  1+ years experience with Angular, Ember, Backbone, or other modern JS framework.
•  3+ years experience of hand-coding HTML, CSS, JavaScript. While this isn't a front-end focussed position, you'll likely have strong Javascript skills given your love of Node.js.
•  Experience developing for social platforms and working with social APIs.
•  Experience with cross-browser, cross-platform, cross device unit testing.
•  Experience with source code versioning systems.

Desired Experience:

•  Experience with Amazon Web Services or other cloud offerings as our platform is deployed to AWS.
