Comfortable hand-coding clean HTML, CSS, and JS when the situation calls for it
Comfortable working in a Linux shell for day-to-day tasks
Source control experience (Git, GitHub, etc.)
Excellent internet connection and adequate hardware are required; you must be able to sustain an hour-long conference call without any issues

Produce high-quality work adhering to Acro Media standards and the Acro Media production process
