Hello again, This week's three hundred and thirty third job post is *very* similar to the one we sent out before but the net is open a little wider... There, now you can get back to watching railscasts :)
What are we looking for? A software engineer/craftsman but you're not the finished article right now. You've got a belief in doing the right thing, you want to make high quality software and you want to develop in a team small enough to really value you as an individual. We write RoR and we're looking for someone who's going to contribute awesome to our code base. If you write good code in any OO or functional language then we're interested. We'll put in the effort to make you a class act in Ruby and SQL, give you some HTML/CSS and if you're really unlucky Javascript ;) On top of that you'll get to work in a devops environment so you'll be familiar with the full software stack for an application as well as hardware considerations. You'll be working on a terminal so you'll need to be comfortable with that. We want you to support what you deploy so that means you need familiarity with Linux and SQL to bootstrap with. Most of all we want the desire, attitude and approach, I don't care where you're from, if you went to uni or if you can drive a submarine. Can you solve a problem? Do you want to make beautiful software? If so I'm keen to have a chat. What would I be working on? We have this tool called Integrity, its an RoR app with OK test coverage and it collects data to feed into Business Intelligence apps. It's designed to hoover up the scraps of data lying around in an organisation and make sure they're OK to feed into your BI setup. The app has a configuration front end and a data munching backend, so as you'd expect Integrity can end up munching a lot of data. There are some lumpy bits in the code right now which require some refactoring TLC but then if was perfect that would be boring wouldn't it? We have a small number of customers right now but we have a number of trials in the pipeline (which is one of the reasons why we need you). It's a web app deployed as an appliance monitored by things like New Relic. We also have some other ideas flowing out of the consultancy business right now that are interesting so we're not a one trick pony either. Who are we? C3 Business Solutions (C3 for short, that's what we say). We're a Business Intelligence consultancy that decided we need to do our own software. We have awards for Integrity from the AIIA and have some press like the BRW magazine's 100 fastest-growing Australian companies and SmartCompany's Smart 50. But I suspect you're more interested in the biscuits rather than the packet, so lets talk a bit about the real deal. We're a small team right now, technically four people but we're on the lookout for three new hires. We run an XP-based process and we work out of a little office in docklands with a whiteboard wall. Is there a dress code? Nope, we binned that :) So if I'm interested? Drop me a line at [email protected] (see I fixed it!) with some details of who you are (CV, Linkedin, Github, etc. are all interesting) and how we can get hold of you.
