To: Bill Ricker <[email protected]> Hi Bill, Thanks for offering, and sorry for the very late reply -- I lost the tail end of this thread in my inbox. Here's my job description: Job Title: Web Application Developer for social app Company Name: Internicity, Inc. (QuickTopic.com) Location: Lexington, MA Terms of Employment: Contract, possibly long-term Compensation: competitive and based on experience Hours: part-time Onsite: no Description: Strong web app development programmer with Perl experience needed to initially help implement a complete visual re-design of QuickTopic.com, which is a social application (web boards) for general users. Follow-on work available if the fit is good. We're in the latter stages of implementing an entirely new look to the site. The work involves refactoring code to implement new visual layouts with emphasis on CSS, further separation of presentation from business logic, and many miscellaneous tasks. There's a long and diverse list of available follow-on work across the entire stack and in diverse functional areas, including architecting for scalability, cloud computing, payment systems, a mobile app, and adding new features -- all depending on your fit, skill set, and adaptability. The LAMP-ish stack includes Perl 5.8.9, javascript (jQuery), Apache, MySQL, on FreeBSD. Skills desired: Excellent sense of the user experience. Experience implementing large web apps. Good understanding of object-oriented Perl. Self-motivated and collaborative. _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
