Attention Designers! GroupMe is Hiring!
We are a small, passionate team of dedicated people working on a product that we love. We spend our days in a sunlight-filled loft near Union Square in Manhattan. At night, we sing karaoke sometimes. Basically, we love our jobs, and we have a lot of fun doing them.
We are looking for someone with ambition, confidence, bold opinions, and talent, whose primary responsibilities will involve collaborating with our designers and engineers in order to flesh out product ideas from early wireframes and sketches to pixel-perfect final designs.
In addition, responsibilities will include supporting other departments in all design functions: presentations, spreadsheets, marketing materials, whatever. You should feel comfortable working on multiple projects simultaneously under tight deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
Applicants should have an online portfolio that includes work that is beautiful and usable, demonstrating a love for tight detailing and impeccable typography. Ideally, it should show off your work in a range of platforms (web, mobile, tablets, print) and applications (sites, apps, branding, marketing). Any coding experience would be a major plus, as well as any motion graphics, video editing, or illustration skills.
We can’t wait to see what you have to show us!
Send your work to kevin@groupme.com
Wynn caught up with Alex MacCaw to talk about Spine, CoffeeScript, writing books, and working at Twitter.
Items mentioned in the show:
- Alex MacCaw, O’Reilly writer and open source developer now working on the front-end for Twitter.
- Spine Lightweight MVC library for building JavaScript applications, inspired by Backbone.
- Spine is written in CoffeeScript
- Eco is Alex’s favorite client-side templating engine.
- Alex suggests trying to use the same templating engine server-side and client-side, perhaps with Mustache, is a pipe dream.
- Spine integrates with Rails out of the box.
- Hem is like Bundler but for Node.js.
- Juggernaut enables realtime server push with node.js, WebSockets and Comet
- Spine.app “Effortlessly generate Spine, CoffeeScript and Hem applications. Spine.App gives your applications structure, CommonJS modules, a development server and more.”
- Alex is working on The Little Book on CoffeeScript in printed form for O’Reilly.
- JavaScript Web Apps covers building client-side MVC apps in a framework agnostic way.
- Twitter is hiring! Got the chops? Get in touch.
- Jeremy Ashkenas is Alex’s programming hero.
They had never met, you know. One of the most famous kisses, and it was a whim, spur of the moment.
