We are looking for a Front-End Web Developer who is motivated to combine the art of design with the art of programming. Responsibilities will include translation of the UI/UX design wireframes to actual code that will produce visual elements of the application. You will work with the UI/UX designer and bridge the gap between graphical design and technical implementation, taking an active role on both sides and defining how the application looks as well as how it works.

• Develop new user-facing features
• Build reusable code and libraries for future use
• Ensure the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs
• Optimize application for maximum speed and scalability
• Assure that all user input is validated before submitting to back-end
• Collaborate with other team members and stakeholders
• Experience of theme design on the WordPress CMS is mandatory.

• Proficient understanding of web markup, including HTML5, CSS3
• Basic understanding of server-side CSS pre-processing platforms, such as LESS and SASS
• Proficient understanding of client-side scripting and JavaScript frameworks, including jQuery

Note: Every front-end developer is expected to have a proficient knowledge of JavaScript, while most front-end developers should know jQuery.

• Good understanding of (Depending on the specific case, a developer should have the knowledge of advanced JavaScript libraries and frameworks, such as AngularJS, KnockoutJS, BackboneJS, ReactJS, DurandalJS etc.)
• Good understanding of asynchronous request handling, partial page updates, and AJAX
• Basic knowledge of image authoring tools, to be able to crop, resize, or perform small adjustments on an image. Familiarity with tools such as as Gimp or Photoshop is a plus.

Note: A UI/UX designer is expected to deliver finished resources for the developer to incorporate into the app. However, quite often a front-end web developer needs to make some small adjustments.

• Proficient understanding of cross-browser compatibility issues and ways to work around them.
• Proficient understanding of code versioning tools, such as (Git / Mercurial / SVN)
• Good understanding of SEO principles and ensuring that application will adhere to them.

We are seeking a Frontend Engineer who can expand our product portfolio and make life easier for locals and local businesses. As part of this role, you will build experiences that help users engage and feel comfortable with the products and services we offer.

We need you to understand Angular, Vanilla JS, HTML and (S)CSS.
We need you to understand the philosophy of writing clean and modular code.
We need you to take your own stand and do what's right to find a solution.
"I'd rather listen to a possible solution rather than a 'don\'t know'" would be plausible to you.

Technologies mentioned above is what you can relate to while applying but that's just the tip of the iceberg.

If you get a score of 10 below,
We need you

You need at least 5 points to proceed to next round.

Answer the following questions by attaching a document link with the note:

1. Why choose ngRx over shared angular services? 1 point

2. How are fork join and merge map different? 1 point

3. How do we wrap html elements in our custom component? 2 points
   Ex:

This is not a paragraph element

1. How will you handle an error produced by RxJS operator's inner observables without failing any other observables that are yet to emit values to its subscriber, so that all the inner observables including errored ones can be piped to another RxJS operator such as fork join, concatMap etc to be handled smoothly for further operations?

Easiest thing would be to generate a pseudo code.

With above question solve this problem:

[Observables....] -> Emit values simultaneously from the array of observables at once (perform a task when an observable finishes) -> toArray -> [emitted values...] -> process each emitted value one by one -> toArray

This will give you 4 points

1. How does javascript achieve its asynchronous nature being single threaded? 2 points
