Re: [JOB] Urgent - PHP/Python Developer needed

Thanks to everyone for your feedback and to everyone who applied for the position - we had some really great applicants, and one or two exceptionally good ones.

The position has now been filled, but we will keep everyone who applied on file for future ref.

I should also take the opportunity to mention that we have other openings coming up in the next few months which are purely Python/Django based - and we are also considering taking on interns this year.

Hi all,

 

Another urgent position has come up in our company, applicant needs to have some experience with using Django but must also be comfortable with PHP (our clients are a 50/50 split between PHP and Django).

The successful candidate should have at least 2 years commercial experience, be fluent OOP, and have a general understanding of what it means to be a good programmer.

We're looking for a real person with real emotion, not a corporate robot - and being a team player is absolutely critical. Our company attitude is firm but fair, we encourage a healthy mixture of fun/work, and we even have a 'NSFW' IRC channel!

* MySQL
* Linux (Debian)
* Bash (shell/ssh etc)

Desired (non-essential) skills:
* MongoDB
* Redhat
* Percona
* Memcache
* Redis
* Python

Desired (non-essential) experience:
* CodeIgniter (PHP)
* TubeX (PHP)
* Django (Python)
* JIRA (Atlassian)
* Basecamp

MINIMUM CRITERIA:
* MUST be able to work on either EST or GMT+0 timezone
* MUST be able to work 30+ hours a week.
* MUST be comfortable working on 18+ sites.
* MUST be fluent in written & spoken English

The position is full time, offering around $2000/month (roughly £1200/month) for the right candidate - price/hours are negotiable.

This position MUST be filled by 15th April 2012.

When applying, please also include a cover note explaining why you feel you would be suitable for this role.
