React Software Engineer

Background

The React Software Engineer will be focused on testable design and implementation of software in a) ReactJS that integrates with a Python/Django backend or a C# ASP.NET backend that works across multiple browsers and b) React Native that creates portable Android apps. The engineer will participate in reviews of their designs and others’ designs, and in code reviews using pull requests. Additionally, the engineer will be writing limited code in other languages, including Python, C#, SQL, and Java. Creative candidates who want to make an immediate impact will thrive in the MORSE environment.

Additionally, the candidate must be eager to learn new technologies and stay on top of the latest trends. The candidate will work on a team developing new code bases that are heavily object-oriented, extensible, and maintainable. Therefore, the candidate must have a tacit understanding of design patterns and anti-patterns; polymorphism and encapsulation; high cohesion and low coupling; and the different strengths and weakness of various programming languages.
