Hawkes Learning is a trailblazing educational software company at the forefront of innovation since 1979. Hawkes was very early in recognizing how technology could revolutionize the learning process and exponentially increase student engagement. Our cutting-edge platform seamlessly blends quality curriculum with AI-based tutoring and a proven mastery learning pedagogy to empower students in their academic journey. Hawkes provides an intelligent and highly effective learning environment that expands the reach of instructors beyond the classroom and drives better student learning outcomes.

As a Senior Engineer at Hawkes Learning, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the user experience of our products. You will lead the company's UI and accessibility initiatives, ensuring our applications are both visually appealing and inclusive. We are looking for a seasoned developer with a strong foundation in React, as well as experience in Microsoft technologies to contribute to our evolving tech stack.

We are currently updating our technology stack, and you have the expertise and desire to help guide that update’s final step. Our stack is retaining both SQL Server as our datastore and the use of HTML5 (with Bootstrap and SCSS) to create HTML5 templates. On the back end, we’re currently in the process of replacing .NET Standard MVC with ASP.NET Core Web API. On the frontend, we’re ramping up to swap from ECMAScript 5 to TypeScript, even in legacy code. That’s a no-brainer, and we’re using some cool tools to develop with it, like Snowpack.

What you'll do :

• Lead the design, development, and maintenance of complex front-end applications using React.
• Collaborate with design and product teams to translate wireframes and designs into high-quality code.
• Mentor other developers at Hawkes to accelerate the adoption of React in a sustainable and scalable manner.
• Build reusable UI components and front-end libraries to improve development efficiency.
• Optimize application performance for speed and scalability.
• Manage and maintain UI and accessibility standards for Hawkes.
• Ensure accessibility standards are met throughout the development process.
• Mentor and guide junior developers in best practices and coding standards.
• Collaborate with back-end developers to integrate front-end with .NET and C# services.
• Stay up to date with the latest front-end technologies and industry trends.
