A global leader in online financial services — not to mention a fun, challenging and unique place to work for over 800 employees in Chicago!

As a UI Architect, you will be the elite representative of our UI culture. You will be responsible for setting a vision, guiding direction and upholding high standards within our culture. You will collaborate closely with a group of talented UI Engineers, UX Designers, Visual Designers, Marketing Associates and other key business stakeholders to establish and maintain frontend development standards across the company.

You’re right for this job if you:

• can convince an Ember developer that Angular is superior (or vice versa
• have driven yourself crazy organizing frontend directory structures
• are passionate about molding talented frontend professionals
• can drive and maintain necessary change within a department
• understand that frameworks are tools and not solutions
• know the importance of design thinking
• place user experience at the forefront of all initiatives
• can effectively communicate with other engineering disciplines
• can implicitly influence architectural direction on projects
• believe that outcomes lead to implementations and not the reverse

We’re even more impressed if you:

• are actively speaking at conferences
• are Twitter famous in the frontend world
• actively blog about frontend development
• naturally and compulsively sketch out and discuss UI implementations
• frequently dig into the code behind sites you didn’t build
• have launched software using Ruby, Rails, Linux, Angular, Ember, or PostgreSQL
• contribute regularly to popular open-source projects (send us Github links!)
