We are looking for a Senior Vue Developer to join our team at Think Company.

The ideal candidate for this role will be comfortable translating designs into accessible, stateful, component-based code, able to discern when to pull from an existing code pattern library versus create new.

You should also be comfortable coding to established standards/conventions, working with code versioning systems, and collaborating with cross-functional teams.

Proven experience with Vue and a component-based approach to development is essential. Experience with Storybook, Vuetify, and design systems is greatly preferred.

No matter your technical and teamwork qualifications, we're looking for someone who happily contributes to documentation, demonstrates attention to detail, has strong communication skills, and aligns with Think Company's core values.

• Build code pattern libraries, responsive page templates, and single-page web applications from annotated visual designs

• Be an advocate of technology and understand current trends, while also being knowledgeable of future trends.

• Work closely with visual and UX designers, understanding creative vision and advising on accessible components, technical feasibility and best practices for optimal user experience.

• Be an empathetic mentor to other Think Company and client developers as they work towards mastery of software development in an enterprise environment.

• Be a thought leader in development, often researching and knowing the latest development trends and methodologies and socializing them with the team.

Requirements

• Possess a keen ability to craft clear solutions in the face of complex problems.

• Experience with front-end development practices including accessibility, progressive enhancement, cross-browser/platform compatibility, performance, and pre-processors/build tools.

• Experience with Storybook, Vuetify, and design systems is preferred.

• Experience writing project requirements and technical documentation for testing and development.
