Our Team & Culture

First and foremost, we love what we do and we love working with each other. It’s as important for us to find someone whose company we enjoy as it is to fill this role. Everyone at Picturelifeâ€"from our founders to our latest hireâ€"is already accomplished at what we do, but each of us is still eager to learn more and push both technical and intellectual boundaries as we work with ! each other and our community.

This Position

What is the role of a “Senior Javascript Engineer”? Right now, 95% of our web application’s front-end code has been built by our co-founder, Jacob. We want to turn this incredible team of one into an indomitable team of two and we’re looking for someone truly extraordinary. We’re not looking for someone who wants to be plugged in to a large team, but someone who wants to co-own the future of Picturelife’s web applicationâ€"stretching what we and the world can do from our browsers.

We expect applicants to be advanced and creative as engineers, specifically with javascript.

All positions at Picturelife are very self-led. We work extraordinarily close together but are not looking for our employees to do only what is asked! of them. We are a collaborative team and therefore to fill th! is role means being comfortable developing around one’s own priorities for the application while balancing the larger goals and objectives of the company.

Salary & Benefits

Picturelife pays competitively and provides stock options as well as an incredible high-level insurance package. We also offer phone and transportation discounts and other HR goodies. Our office is state of the art (see photos on our about page https://picturelife.com/about ) and we always have coffee on the stove, beer in the fridge, and the pinball machine plugged in and ready to play.
