Job opening - Web Software Engineer at Snooth Media (New York, NY)

Snooth Media is seeking an experienced front-end engineer to help build and maintain our products, including the world's largest wine review site.  You'll work alongside a smart, dedicated team of designers and engineers to build the next generation of Snooth Media.  If you enjoy the challenges and opportunity of working with a startup with the benefits of a mature company, Snooth may be for you.


Candidates should have at least 2-3 years of professional experience working with PHP, SQL and Javascript. Specific experience with PostgreSQL, Smarty, and MooTools/jQuery is a plus. Duties will include developing site features and taking part in high level software architecture projects. Experience working with Perl and Java are helpful but not a requirement.


The engineering environment at Snooth is fast paced and exciting. If you are interested in finding scalable ways to approach everything you do from shopping for groceries to building databa! ses, you're exactly the type of engineer we are hoping to find.


What it's Like to Code for Snooth:



  • The tech team is small and mostly self-managing, with helpful guidance.

  • Everyone in the company is driven and hard-working.  

  • Micromanagement is discouraged.

  • Results-oriented job evaluation.

  • Hands-off vacation policy - as long as you get your work done, take whatever time you need.

  • Minimalist and well-factored coding encouraged - we judge your work by maintainability, stability, and overall product quality - not number of lines written.

  • The managerial structure is best approximated by a soccer team - the coach makes the calls, but you decide how to handle the ball.
