We have a DARPA-funded training app entering its second phase. The web app uses HTML5, CSS3, and plenty of JavaScript with a Node.js backed REST API.

While the app mostly uses JQuery right now, we’re looking at MVC frameworks like Backbone.js and perhaps a module loader going forward. We encourage our entire team to be involved in the decision making.

About You:

Do you want to help revolutionize on-the-job-training in the military and commercial space?
Does the idea of having your app stress tested in Afghanistan excite you?
Does knowing JavaScript mean more to you than using jQuery?
Are you interested in making use of the new CSS3 animations?
Do you find the new crop of client side MVC frameworks exciting?
Do you dream of automating your testing for true continuous deployment?

We’re starting a new project in partnership with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to create three engaging HTML5 web applications with the goal of boosting ninth-grade math scores by 10% for the coming school year.

The games will be canvas-based and use the Impact.js game engine.
