AJAX/JS Developer Wanted for Semi-Permanent Contract The Company: A small established company targeting a vertical market. Very experienced core staff in both technology and launching dot-coms. We're based in Los Angeles.
The Task: Take an existing web presence which has been held together with spit and duct tape and turn it into something beautiful. This will be done along two axes: one is the creation of a Drupal-based community site to compliment the web application and the other is to take the existing code base and un-do the Crimes Against Nature which were coded into it, converting it to an AJAX/JS-based foundation. The Candidate: We're looking for someone who can walk on water and chew gum at the same time. That is, know your stuff and be able to make good technical decisions on the fly. Migrating the existing code base means ripping a lot of bad code out, but also building a useful library of utility classes and functions along the way. So an eperienced hand is preferred. Solid experience with Dojo and/or jQuery is required (or at least as solid as is possible with stuff that's so new). Solid LAMP development experience is required - you should be totally comfortable working from a shell prompt. The Job: Ideally we want someone to be a semi-permanent contractor. Initially this will be a 40hr/wk affair, but once it settles down it'll taper off to half that. But it will be development that's ongoing for years to come. And we will be pushing the envelope in terms of what can be done with Drupal and AJAX, so once we get past this first chore it'll be a lot of fun stuff with very few limitations on what we can try to add.
