GUI Engineer

Synacor is a dynamic, fun and exciting company. Jeans and t-shirts are typical office attire, even for the executives. Flexible work hours accommodate employees with special scheduling needs, early risers and those who need a little caffeinated kick-start each morning. Synacor's headquarters are located along Buffalo's waterfront and the Erie Basin Marina. Taking a few minutes to stretch your legs is as easy as walking the 1,000 feet or so to the water. The office wireless network even reaches a beautiful gazebo, making it easy to spend a little time outdoors while still being productive. We are looking for great people to join our team and be given the freedom to do the work they were hired to do.
