This role is particularly suited to a programmer who is comfortable operating within a level of scrappiness and enjoys having a direct impact on the product. Ideally you’ll thrive working with a high level of autonomy and you are intrinsically driven.
Procreate are particularly keen to work with programmers who don't follow any particular engineering or design methodology (e.g. agile, scrum, TDD, BDD) and are comfortable in developing their own internal tools and borrowing from engineering best practices rather than following frameworks for the sake of it.
Procreate seek to implement a very healthy work life balance, and operate very reasonable working hours. They also offer fantastic salaries, sponsor visas with permanent residency for those who qualify, and provide financial support for relocation.
