Javascript Developer, USA

About Us:

Grapple is a key player in the worldwide cross-platform mobile application development space. We are an award winning mobile agency who develop strategic mobile apps for Smart-phones, Feature-phones and Tablets.  We leverage a multi-patented technology, which allows us to create apps for multiple O/S platforms using standard web technologies. Our build price for all these platforms is equivalent to what most developers quote for just iPhone. This includes a full service agency approach across strategy, design, project management, development, testing, distribution, hosting and analytics. We also provide a unique future-proofing technology that updates apps to ensure compatibility with new devices and O/S upgrades.  Our client list includes Xbox, Sony Pictures, Calvin Klein, McDonalds and many other leading global brands.  www.grapplemobile.com

We are looking for experienced Javascript developers to join our New York development team to build apps for global brands. This is a fantastic opportunity for a developer with 2-4 years experience of front-end web development looking for new challenges and to move into mobile. This is a development role for someone extremely well versed in Javascript, HTML and CSS, not a designer who knows how to use jQuery.

Required Approach/Values:

1.  Clearly define the scope of the project upfront. Someone who delivers meaningful results, focuses on quality, can quantify requirements, thinks about long-term impact, works openly with other developers, and aligns expectations.

2.  Break down a project into smaller, manageable tasks. This makes the work less intimidating to team members and allows you to complete one group of tasks at a time.

3.  Be enthusiastic about the project (app). The developer’s energy inspires other, making it easier to keep the team motivated and involved.

4.  Anticipate obstacles. All projects encounter problems. Its important for the developer to be a good communicator and adapt quickly to changes with an agile methodology.

5.  Keep your finger on the pulse. New ideas and innovative solutions are what makes Grapple stand out.  Stay up to date with latest news and developments in the mobile application arena.
