Do you love reading and writing code? Do you love getting your hands dirty with databases and queries? Are you a puzzle-solver? If so, Hemisphere Design + Marketing has an immediate opening for a part-time or full-time Web Developer.
About Hemisphere Design & Marketing:
Since 2001, Hemisphere has been serving the South Sound as a full-service design and marketing firm. Our vision? To do thoughtful work with a beautiful aesthetic. In simple terms, to make your company a true double threat: smart and pretty.We're called Hemisphere because we believe in using both sides of our brain — creative and analytical. Why? Because great ideas emerge from a magical marriage of form and function, style and strategy. For us, this means every project should look beautiful and completely rock at the task for which it was created. This form-and-function philosophy makes us an ideal partner for a wide range of clients: businesses, nonprofits, government agencies, school districts, municipalities, and more. It turns out that a lot of people are looking for "it-factor" branding and marketing calibrated to produce real-world results.
About the Role:
We are a small but mighty studio. This Web Developer role will be the go-to for our client's technical needs. The person best suited for this role will be someone who is comfortable working with code and with people. As a small studio, the old adage of wearing many hats will ring true here but we feel it's important our employees and their time feel valued- as such, our office is open only 32 hours a week. We do our best work together, so we ask our employees to come into the office on a hybrid or full-time basis. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include fielding requests from our clients and working with our design team to create websites.
