Like working with the latest tools and technology in modern web development? Look no further: We write our React components in JSX/ES6, transpile down with Babel, and bundle with Webpack. We use Flow for static type analysis, a strict set of ESLint rules for linting, and prettier for formatting. We're fans of flexbox and author stylesheets in Sass. Our environments are consistent thanks to Docker and we run unit tests on every pull request thanks to CircleCI.

I read this as a red flag of brogrammer culture that intentionally filters out non-trivial dimensions of diversity. I'll acknowledge that the bullet point is working as intended in this post.


Seriously. I understand the desire to be "funny" in job ads and I am not against it in all instances but this is such a specific joke that it might as well just said "bonus points if you are a little nerdy but not too nerdy, 30-35 years old, American, a guy, and/or grew up in at least a middle class household."
