architect-level front-end developers who take pride in writing reusable code with an emphasis on quality over quantity.

The ideal candidate will be innovative: interested in applying new techniques and design patterns, but also fluent in current best practices and standards.

Additionally, this position requires working with backend developers to implement and integrate the presentation layer architecture following best practices and principles of reuse.

ActionScript 2.0 or 3.0 using object-oriented principles. 
Experience architecting and implementing templating frameworks in a Java/J2EE environment using MVC principles (tiles, SiteMesh, etc). Experience with JSP/JSTL coding.
