As the Front End Web Developer for Qualys you'll be tasked with helping to create highly dynamic interfaces for our multiple web based SaaS products with a strong leaning towards interactivity and usability.

Your primary responsibilities will be working with the software developers to code the front-end so you'll need to have a strong commitment to web standards, a familiarity with microformats, as well as understanding how to develop javascript features. You should understand the concept of progressive enhancements so that features degrade gracefully as well as understanding the challenges of creating a rich web application that adheres to Section 508 standards.

In essence you will be responsible for helping to create a dynamic interface with rich user interaction capabilities so we're looking for someone with an eye towards the future of web applications and where web front end development is going; someone who thinks Amazon is a "nice website" whereas Google Maps, Calendar, and Spreadsheet are real web applications.
