Continuously teach, learn, and strive for a generalized skill set with collaborative design and programming, both locally in our San Jose office, and with our remote collaborators in India and Ukraine
Influence the platforms we rely on by communicating wants and needs to our partners at Microsoft, Google, Facebook, and others in the areas of WebRTC and web standards, managed runtimes (JavaScript, Typescript, etc), React, and open source efforts.
