Front End Engineer – Social Media Applications

This hot social media applications company recently received the Crunchies “Best Enterprise” award at TechCrunch; it is recognized, well-funded and profitable. The VP of Creative Services oversees accounts for seven of the top ten largest global advertisers and creation of applications reaching over 8 million internet users each month. When he needed to hire a new developer for the Client Services Team, Redfish sought out the most creative talent. The position required the ability to balance a large workload with demanding deadlines. The job provided an opportunity to implement sites, in collaboration with the product development department and tech department, participating in improving design and site layouts and evolving client-side solutions.

John has 13 years of graphic design experience and obtained his certification from the Center for Digital Imaging Arts at Boston University in front end web development. As a personable creative, he has successfully worked as a highly valued consultant, and as senior graphic designer and integral member of a nimble start-up design firm to help team brand and re-brand businesses. In addition to his creativity and ability to understand client needs, John’s strengths include solid complex design CSS ability and a variety of other technical skills necessary for designing multiple applications as well as relationship building and a go-getter attitude.

“Beth Cliff from Redfish contacted me about a position that I applied for online about 2 hours after I hit “submit resume”. She walked me through the details of the position and the company. She was very comforting with all my questions and concerns and she was able to get back to me with answers from the company if needed. She kept me informed on each step of the hiring process and contacted me about any leads or changes from the company. We were able to work out a time and date for when I would be able to make in for an in-person interview. Seeing as this was a relocation position for me, she made sure that I was comfortable with the switch. As I told her, this was the perfect position for me and she worked to make sure I was able to at least get my foot in the door for an interview. I was very pleased with her attitude, service and friendly advice when it came to landing this amazing position for an amazing company.” – John Friese
