Senior Web Developer/UI Developer – Hong Kong recruitment
My client is a Silicon Valley Venture Capital-funded technology firm based in Hong Kong, Singapore and the US. It is the world's first financial technology platform based purely in the cloud. What this means is that their geographically diverse portfolio of clients can access a cutting-edge cloud-based brokerage system from anywhere in the world. Whilst the securities and futures trading platform is my client's main product, they have also recently released a website which offers stock ratings generated by combining hard market data with common sentiment algorithmically extracted from social media websites.
What my client needs now for their Hong Kong office is a skilled Web developer with strong Javascript skills and experience developing a major consumer website. Experience working in HTML5, EXT.JS, LIFT or Sencha would be a significant benefit. You will focus on the front end of their Securities and Futures trading platform and their social media for investors website. If you are particularly strong in Javascript development and have a real passion to code, this could be an inspirational opportunity for you to work on cutting-edge greenfield development projects. Aside from your technical prowess, you need to have an innate passion for problem-solving.
Useful technical abilities for this role:
* Five years of Web/UI application development on a major consumer website
* Strong Javascript development skills and a solid OO background
* Experience building cross-browser compatible user interfaces, which are semantic, W3C valid and accessible
* Bachelor's degree in computer science or related field/relevant working experience
*You should enjoy working in a fast-paced, collaborative and Agile development environment
Excellent English skills are required.
