• Candidate must have full stack background, including some design experience and a very strong development background, including understanding of UX/UI, cross-browser compatibility, general web functions and standards • The position requires consistent communication with colleagues, not all of whom have technical expertise • Expertise and hands on experience with Web Applications and programming languages such as HTML, JavaScript, and APIs • Functional knowledge or hands on design experience with Web Services • Strong grasp of security principles and how they apply to E-Commerce applications
LOGISTICS
Incumbent VP is expected to work a flexible schedule, estimated in the near term at 10-15 hours/week, with the potential to increase to a fulltime position upon capital infusion. The VP will report directly to the Chief Operating Officer and may be able to employ an intern. The VP will work remotely, balancing work requirements as appropriate to his/her schedule. Compensation will include equity and may in the future include a salary (both amounts TBD), commensurate with experience. For more information, please email Ryan Greer at ryan@bookbugs.net.
