What your day-to-day will look like:
Daily life at SpotX is all about the code we write. You’ll start most days with a coffee or La Croix from our brand new kitchen while you organize yourself for your day. After stand-up, you’ll spend the majority of your day at the keyboard doing what you do best: slinging code that reads as well as it functions. Meetings? Schmeetings… we value your time. Sometimes you will work with a partner (we love pair programming), and sometimes you’ll work with your best set of headphones. Front end? Back end? Where do you like to work? In either case, you will also write the tests that back up your code.
Throughout the day, you may take a break to head to the whiteboard with one of your teammates to help them work through design or review your teammates’ code so that it can be merged to the baseline. At some point, you may be invited to a meeting to discuss or plan work that is coming soon. Grab a beer, and get in there. We love new ideas, and we love solving problems together.
