So, if you've been thinking about making the world a better place in your New Year's Resolutions, we could use a hand.
Due to parental leave and some well-deserved holidays, we need to bolster our small internal team here at HQ in Surry Hills for three months to get version 3.0 of our campaigning platform out into production. You'll be leading on development and mentoring the team on Rails and TDD/BDD. You'll need: - Commercial Rails experience preferably with an app or apps that deals with large scale email, CRM and member tracking - Experience and (zealous) practice of BDD and TDD. You lurv Cucumber and RSpec (or their friends). You write tests first. - Practical application and programming of features in Rails 2.3x and you can think about design implications with an eye to the impending release of 3.0 - Experience working with vendor APIs and gems (ie. Campaign Monitor/MailChimp, ActiveMerchant, SearchLogic etc.) - Some linux sysadmin and systems architecture knowledge. You use git, github, and capistrano daily and can do some front end work with html, css and jQuery. Salary is $70k pa *pro rata* for the three months (hey, we're a not for profit). Start is end of January. Work environment is casual, dynamic, relaxed and very fun. Please send resume, github profile and any other online pointers to your expertise (ie. blog etc) as well as any questions to [email protected](no phone calls please). Thanks for your time and consideration and Happy New Year (and hacking) to everyone. Daryl.
