Some recent work includes: a program-sync trivia engine for National Geographic Channel, Rule The 90s; an immersive HTML5/CSS3 parallax experience with animation, American Blackout; a kiosk, desktop, iPad, and mobile experience all using the same markup for the Smithsonian Channel, Rise of the Robots; and a SXSW-finalist robotic “dunk tank” that used live video-streaming and Phidgets microcontrollers to coordinate an internet-aimable NERF gun and an array of self-sensing targets that trigger an armory of foam weapons, our Intern Abuser.

At NeoPangea, we’re focused on remaining small and nimble, which means that we only bring on rock stars with industry experience who have learned their craft through years of hard work and self-motivated experimentation. If that sounds like you so far, ask yourself if you’re also comfortable with working in a group, dealing with clients and deadlines, and open to constructive criticism and suggestions. Proximity to the Philly region and ability to work onsite at our Reading studio is a requirement.

NeoPangea has awesome healthcare, dental, vision, life, and 401k.

Please send us your salary requirements, resume as a URL, PDF, or TXT file (NO WORD DOCS) and URLs to your work. Please describe your role in the project, how many other developers worked with you, and what your learned. We’d also love to hear any professional or personal goals you may have for your future.
