Entry Level Front End Web Developer Jobs in Leander, TX

ICON is looking for a skilled, detail-obsessed Web Developer to own the technical health, performance, and continuous improvement of iconbuild.com. You'll sit within the Marketing & Customer Experience team, working at the intersection of design, content, and engineering to ensure our website is fast, functional, and always moving forward. This role is equal parts maintenance and momentum. Some days you'll be squashing bugs and fixing layout breaks. Others you'll be building new landing pages, integrating third-party tools, or collaborating with design to bring a new campaign experience to life. You'll be the go-to technical partner for the marketing team, the person who makes ideas buildable and keeps the site running at its best.

This role carries a dotted-line relationship to ICON's Engineering & Software Development team. During slower periods on the web front, you'll roll up your sleeves and contribute to backend support - bug fixes, internal tooling, and software maintenance, making you a true full-stack contributor across both the marketing and engineering orgs. If you care deeply about craft, move quickly without breaking things, and are equally comfortable translating a designer's vision into pixel-perfect code as you are digging into a backend issue with an engineering team, this role is for you.
This is an onsite M-F role out of our Austin, TX headquarters.
