Senior Web Developer
King Kong, Australia
Job Description
Dear Wizard Of Front-End Web Development,
If you’ve been searching through countless lifeless job listings on Seek
Almost slipping into a deep coma from the We’re looking for a highly experienced front-end web developer... blah blah blah job adverts...
And you’re looking for an exciting opportunity to join the fastest growing digital agency in the country(yes, we’ve got the awards to prove it)
Then this will be the most important job listing you ever read.
Here’s why...
My name is Sabri Suby and I am looking for a sharp and switched on front-end developer to join our team.
But not any old front-end developer, no. I’m looking for a ‘wizard’.
So what do I mean by a wizard?
It’s someone who loves the incredibly satisfying feeling of slicing up designs to pixel perfection..and then pushing those little bad boys live.
Someone who gets great satisfaction from seeing the designs they hand coded go on to change someone's life (seriously).
I like to think of it as
Gandalf With A Sprinkle Of Neo From The Matrix
You must be someone who looks at code like Neo from the matrix, something you can bend with your will.
Like something you take so seriously, that if coding was an Olympic sport you would take home the gold for Australia...
We’re looking for a front-end developer who can smash out pixel-perfect designs, weekly.
That’s right, weekly. No more huge bloated projects that you have to stare at for months on end...until you can finally push them live.
You will constantly be working on a huge variety of new and exciting projects.
With an A-team of coding killers.
Shopify, Wordpress and good ol’ HTML.
And you won’t be joining some team of caged battery hen coders.
All forming some mass market production line of developers.
Where some huge faceless corporation fills you with enough Redbull to give you heart palpitations and makes you smash out lines of code until your fingers bleed.
Okay, okay...
Now, a little about us...
We are a full-service digital marketing agency that is growing FAST!
For the last two years, we’ve been ranked as the fastest-growing digital agency
And the 17th fastest growing company in the country by The Australian Financial Review
We’ve got clients in 49 different countries around the world.
And our business consists of
65 Of The Wildest, Most Passionate Bunch Of Lunatic Marketers You’ve Ever Worked With...
And this is just one of the reasons we’ve been named in the Top 100 Coolest Companies in Australia 2016, 2017 and 2018 by Anthill Magazine.
And The Best Places To Work by The Australian Financial Review 2021.
Look, the list goes on and onbecause we’ve seriously won more awards than you can shake a stick at
Are there occasionally stressful moments? Sure such is life.
Is every day peachy? Of course not we’d be lying if we said it was.
But we do our best to make sure those are the exceptions.
We’re in one of the most competitive industries in the world.
An industry dominated by giants and frequent upstarts backed by hundreds of millions of dollars in VC money. We’ve taken zero. Where does our money come from? Our customers.
They buy what we’re selling and we treat them exceptionally well. Call us old fashioned.
But enough about us, what about you...
Are you
- Passionate about the opportunity of joining the dev team of one the country's fastest growing companies?
- Dedicated to standing out from the crowd and delivering exceptional code?
- Tired of working hard with little fun or reward?
- Ready to take on an amazing role amongst an awesome team.
- Deadly serious about having the strongest gif game in the office?
But Before You Get ALL ExcitedI’ll Stop You There...
Because this role won’t be easy.
We’re a fast-paced agency who demands nothing but the very best.
We push out hundreds of projects per year. All fueled by super clean, responsive...and most importantly high-converting designs.
It's quite a workload.
And, as such
I need a super sharp and organised Wizard of web development at the helm.
Not only someone who knows how to code, but someone who can communicate limitations and opportunities within a project to a civilian (non coder).
Maybe you’ve been stagnating at a company with no growth prospects and want to be surrounded by a team of sharp devs.
Maybe you’re fresh out of uni and this is your first full-time job.
Maybe you are sick and tired of being a battery hen coder and drinking Kombucha and want something a little more dynamic where you can see the measurable impact your work has on other people’s lives.
Whatever it is, you must share the belief that.
