* About Us Ratecity[0] are an online personal finance website, a joint venture between NineMSN and Canstar Cannex, located in Australia Square, in Sydney's CBD.
We're migrating our current PHP/Oracle platform to Ruby On Rails/ Postgres/SOLR, and are in need of a junior/mid developer - initially for 4 months - to expedite the process. * About You The team already has a couple of senior guys, so it's fine if you're still growing into the technologies, methods and tools that we use, which include: - Experience with Ruby on Rails, and the common tools and libraries used in the rails ecosystem - Javascript development knowledge, especially jQuery - Agile development, particularly TDD/BDD using Rspec and Cucumber - Code chops: Object Oriented Design, Abstraction, Refactoring etc. - Database skills. We use Postgres. - Experience of Git, basic source control knowledge. - Linux and command-line-fu. - Windows. Yes, we're a NineMSN company. You may know some of these better than others. It's more important that you have the background and perspective to understand the pros and cons of the environment and be able to work in it and help us improve it. It almost goes without saying that you communicate well, technically and colloquially, and have strong problem-solving skills. If you’re a well-rounded individual with experience in more than scripting language and/or have qualifications in computer science or information technology, we would look well upon that too. * The Location: You'll be working on-site and full-time from our Sydney office. * Cash Money 4 months at the full-time equivalent of $75k p.a., but if you feel you're worth more, we can talk. * Interested? Please send an email to [email protected] with your resume or linkedin profile, together with examples of your work that are available on github/sourceforge , or anything else that shows us how great your code is.
