Expected Qualifications:

Want to see impact as a software engineer at previous roles

  • Both candidates in this example have very generic resumes that mention technologies they used, but not problems that they solved; we want engineers that have solved at least some problems of medium complexity (this can be a bit subjective, but hopefully helps)
  • Overall, did candidate deliver software that helped the business, customers, or other employees

Should understand object-oriented programming:

  • Expected this to be common, but both candidates we interviewed had struggles with OOP; we use it heavily and its a basic expectation for the role

JavaScript fundamentals:

  • As of now, this team exclusively uses JavaScript/TypeScript. We want a candidate with a good grasp of it.
  • We don't necessarily have a preference on if the candidate specialized in front-end or back-end development. Same with frameworks or side tooling; no preference. A candidate that actually knows the language well can adapt to using that language in a variety of contexts.

Qualifications

  • 5 plus years of dynamically related experience in coding and development of highly scalable, high-impact software components, and/or client-facing web applications
  • Must have TypeScript and NodeJS experience
