SENIOR FULL STACK ENGINEER - CHICAGO, IL

ABOUT THIS JOB:
Around here we’re all numbers people, but it’s the 1s and 0s behind our data that make what we do possible. Software engineers strike a balance between precision and disruption, between reliability and innovation. Nielsen is a tech company backed by nearly a century of forward momentum to show the world what’s next—and we couldn’t do it without our engineers.
 
RESPONSIBILITIES:
•    Write clean, concise, maintainable code and tests
•    Actively participate in team code reviews and enforce quality standards
•    Drive innovation and automation at every step from code to deploy
•    Promote and enforce best practices in development and operations
•    Ability to work with minimum guidance and communicate technical concepts clearly
•    Interface with product and other engineering teams on a regular cadence
 
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOU:
Common design patterns and industry standards are second nature to you. Developing complex applications? You’re up for that, too. You’ve honed your tech skills alongside your people skills and can work closely with other teams as well as you lead your own. You’re ready to put your experience to work and take ownership of projects on a global scale—after all, you’re fluent in quite a few languages. You have the vision to strategize for the next generation of front-end and back-end services and processing engines that’ll drive tomorrow. You’re ready for what’s next.

QUALIFICATIONS:
•    4-6 years of hands-on software development
•    The training to back your work: a masters degree, bachelor’s degree, or, as we recognize there isn’t one formula for success, equivalent work experience
•    Expert experience in JavaScript, Sass, CSS, Angular (version 2 and up), Jasmine/Karma, Protractor, Cypress, Angular CLI, Webpack, Jenkins, Bitbucket/GitJava/J2EE, Java messaging, and products like AMQ, JMS, and SQS
•    Ability to engineer software solutions that employ a wide range of technologies: think Java, Spring, Hibernate, RESTful Web Services, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Mesos, Docker, Kubernetes, Hbase, Azure, AWS, GCP
