We are building an online community for musicians to share their media and build profiles to tie the community in with a Social Network feel.

The website will have the following:

* Member Profiles - themed using drupal + views - already setup, just needs themed.
* Member Videos - uploaded and converted using flashvideo modules from drupal
* Member Youtube - using the CCK modules and Google/YouTube Video
* Member Audio - using the Drupal Audio module, we would like to have users upload their audio
* Featured Video / Audio / Youtube - this section is a collaboration of the videos flagged by the moderation staff to be displayed on a featured page. This functionality is 90% complete and needs to be themed.
* SMF Forum Integration - already setup, just needs themed.

* And more features here and there.

We have a functional drupal website and a large section of this code has been completed. We have a test server and we have everything ready to go with Subversion, Trac, and etc. We just need an experienced Drupal developer that can focus full attention to this project and work as much as possible to get it done as soon as possible without any delays. No exceptions.

Subversion / Trac Experience Required:

We already have our own Subversion / Trac setup with milestones and tickets. All work and progress will be tracked through this system.

You will be tracked through our Subversion system using Trac's timeline. If work is not being produced on a regular and active schedule, we will find another developer. We cannot experience any more delays than we already have. This site must launch as soon as possible.

* Strong familiarization with the Drupal website, manual and other documentation
* Strong familiarization with Drupal Flash modules, CCK, Audio, FlashVideo and etc.
* Very strong drupal theming abilities
* The ability to design, layout and implement Drupal pages utilizing views and other modules.
* The ability to design custom Drupal modules to enhance our functionality.
* You must be good with CSS, JavaScript and etc. You must be able to develop Web 2.0 style websites and layouts
* If you have a graphics toolkit (such as small icons for various parts of the site) or the ability to make your own, then you are a strong candidate

Ongoing Project:

This website is an ongoing project and we have many more to do after this. If you prove yourself as a valuable developer and prove that you can realistically produce code in a timely manner, you will be eligable for additional projects.

Musical Background:

If you have a musical background, or play a musical instrument such as Drums, Guitar or Bass guitar and understand the fundamentals behind basic music, then you are a very eligable candidate if you posess the other skills listed here. Your selection chances will be greatly improved.

Important Notice:

You'll also be working for an experienced PHP Developer who has authored books on PHP Development and owns / operates website communities such as phpfreaks.com. We are very aware of how the development process works and how much time it realistically takes to develop PHP based websites. This is not a blind client who can be taken advantage of, so if that is your work ethic, please do not apply.
