Gigantic Inc., is a small multimedia design firm based in SoHo, that
has an immediate need for a PHP/MySQL programmer to work various web
projects. We currently have 4-5 projects on our plate that require a
talented PHP programmer to build clean, user-friendly solutions that
range e-commerce cart implementations to an online ordering system for
a major reprographics company. Some of these projects will require
building for scratch while others will be modifications of existing
PHP programming.
We are looking for a freelancer for the next 6 months with the
possibility of a lifetime of projects! We are amenable to off-site
work but would prefer that you have regular meetings with us in our
office or at least be available via iChat video conferencing. No
offense, but we also need a good command of the English language as we
may need you to explain things to clients.
Now here is the kicker - we got burned by a PHP programmer the last
time we did this. His name was Tom Gillis and I am not afraid to let
you know because if I ever see him again he will have a hard time
looking me in the eye. But I can see from reading the threads on this
list that there are honest and talented programmers out there that
would like to work on projects with dedicated and knowledgeable
people. So please, if you are a slacker and a thief, don't waste my
time. But if you want to earn a decent wage for some mid-level to high-
level programming needs let me know you are interested.
Responsibilities
Work with our designers and project manager to build back-end
solutions to medium-sized database driven websites. In most cases,
you will be working with sites that have already had the framework or
templates built in HTML and CSS. We would like you to work with our
design team to build out the back-end sections of the sites into
finished products. These back-end solutions involve simple CMS
functionality like creating dynamic pages and integrating FCKEditor or
something similar. Also integrating phpBB Forum solutions or Blogging
applications.
Requirements
- PHP, MySQL (AJAX would be nice, but not required)
- Integration of off-the-shelf e-commerce software or custom built
solutions
- Clear understanding of HTML & XHTML and CSS
- Knowledge of FCKEditor and phpBB integration very, very helpful
- Flash, Actionscript and XML are a big plus but not necessary
- Illustrator and Photoshop
- Strong communication skills
- Healthy desire to work with knowledgeable and really cool people
Compensation (fee based or hourly)
Depending on the complexity and scope of work, but fees usually range
from $3,000 - $8,000 for website projects such as these: http://www.manhattansc.org
or http://www.owlibrary.org - these have a simple CMS back-end with
integration of FCKEditor. I know this is a big range, but each project
has a budget that we have to work within.
An hourly wage will be in the $40 - 60 range. Just work quickly ;-)
We will always do the best we can to compensate you fairly for your
work. Sorry no bennies.
