- Are excited by, and actively explore emerging technologies, but patient with clients that require some backward compatibility.
- Thrive on producing well organised and clear, standards compliant code.
- Have preferred languages, frameworks and platforms, but are happy to embrace others and learn new skills.
- Have a good grasp of timescales, and the ability to adhere to them.
Essential skills:
- HTML/(X)HTML
- CSS2/CSS3
- Javascript including good knowledge of frameworks such as JQuery
- Experience of developing cross-browser and cross-platform compatible solutions
- Responsive development techniques
- Version control – Git
