RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Coding: Most of your time will be spent developing code. Our application relies heavily on Drupal and its APIs and toolsets. You will be working on a large Drupal multi-site application that uses over 100 drupal modules and has over 100,000 lines of custom code.
  • Technical Decisions: All developers are expected to contribute in the decision making process to help drive the direction of development for our application. You will be expected to make and suggest decisions regarding your code and others.
  • Cooperating: We are a team environment, and cooperation and communication are a must. You will be working with other developers, and testers. You will be expected to be well versed with what others are doing and be available to divert your efforts to help others when the need arises.
  • Growing: Last but not least, we expect you to move up. We are a young company with a small workforce. The lines of responsibility are often blurred, and all of our staff are encouraged to try things that may be outside their normal areas of expertise.

REQUIREMENTS

  • Strong understanding of web application technology and relational databases
  • Strong knowledge of PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, AJAX, and other web technologies.
  • Experience writing highly efficient code within highly scalable, highly available environments
  • Ideally, applicants will have a history of contributions on drupal.org or other open source community/user group websites.
  • Knowledge of the core Drupal development APIs, along with knowledge of other common add-on APIs such as Views, CCK, and OG.
  • Telecommuting is OK, but we prefer candidates able to work in either our New Hampshire office or in the San Francisco area.

Applicants must have a very strong work ethic and be willing to keep up with a fast paced, Rapid Application Development environment. As a startup company we rely heavily on the dependability and initiative of our employees to get work done under sometimes aggressive deadlines. The work is challenging and rewarding. Ideal candidates will be outspoken when it comes to expressing ideas and will be able to give and accept constructive criticism well. A good sense of humor is also required.
