To Apply

Please answer the following questions in your cover letter and email it to

[email protected].

Walk ins and phone calls are not accepted, the only way to apply is via this form.

What’s your most recent (last 12 months preferred) pet project? What’s it about? How is it doing today?

What’s the name of last commercial project you were involved into (last 12 months preferred)? What was your role, what you were actually focusing on?

What does the word 'abstraction' mean to you? Why do abstractions matter when you write code?

Imagine a project with a front-end powered by pure jQuery (that’s not us, but anyways). Why do you think would the developers of the project choose this route?

We are currently using Angular 1. Would you suggest that we migrate to Angular 5? Or maybe React? Why?

What are the most recent 4 books/articles/manuals [related to being a software engineer] you have read?

Please share a piece of ES6 code [written by you] that you are most proud of.

Imagine that we've got a class called String, which handles strings of characters, duh! We're going to add a new method, like String.prototype.unzip(), which treats content of this string as base64-encoded ZIP file, then unpacks it and returns the result. What are your thoughts about that? What approach would you suggest? What questions would you ask?

What kind of experience do you have with trading? What kind of experience with technical analysis?

Do you trade for yourself? If so, what is your trading style? What kind of indicators or analysis techniques do you use and why?

What is a Japanese candlestick and why is it useful for traders?

What trading software or brokerage do you personally use?
