Toucan Events

Toucan is a post-COVID virtual gatherings platform that makes mingling at an online happy hour as easy as circulating around a physical room or just standing around with a drink and waiting for folks to come to you. A seasoned frontend engineer interested or experienced in React, TypeScript, real-time servers, REST APIs, websockets, and audio/video streaming. Experience/interest in Node.js, [No]SQL, and the AWS platform is certainly welcome. Self-starter who enjoys leading projects while working in a small (very) distributed team, can design and implement solutions to unusual and complex problems, as well as troubleshoot, identify, and resolve product issues. The core UI stack is React/TypeScript and Tailwind CSS in conjunction with a homegrown library for rendering OO HTML5-based sprites.
