WorkHabit is looking for another Drupal developer to join our team. If you're an experienced developer, looking for a place to work that can help you build a career, send us your resume.

We're looking for bright and fun people who love what they do and want to make a good name for themselves in the web development and Drupal communities.

Principal Duties and Responsibilities

  • Custom PHP/MySQL development
  • Drupal Module Development
  • Custom theme work with Drupal
  • Active community member; works within the Drupal community to give back

As you can see, knowledge of the Drupal framework would be more than a little helpful.

Useful Skills/Knowledge:

  • PHP programming, including OO, procedural, and a knowledge of data structures and patterns
  • The ability to work with MySQL. This means you know different kinds of joins, can optimize queries, and can explain to us what an index is and why we should use them, at a minimum. If you're a MySQL guru, with loads of experience in large datasets and performance queries, you'll be among friends.
  • Be able to code XHTML, and have some experience with CSS (it's cool if you're not a rock star at CSS, as long as your php skills are up there - we know the 'brain' split)
  • Javascript, especially jquery. If you're "not a frontend" person, we understand. Still, be ready to learn some if you don't know it already. We have a hacker culture, and we like to learn technology - you should too.
  • A strong sense of ethics and personal responsibility.
  • Communications skills, especially with teams
  • Some ability to work within a very independent environment, and possess the ability to manage your time
  • Experience with Linux or other Unix like OS would be nice.
  • Excellent analytical and problem solving skills
  • Fast learner and a Self-starter

If you're a Drupal God, well... we probably know you already. But we still want to hear from you. If you still don't know Drupal, we can train you up, but it would be a good idea to look around Drupal.org before talking to us.

Education Requirements:
Please to have, BS or MS in Computer Science or equivalent skills and be able to prove it.

Cool things that would make you insanely awesome

  • You like to speak, and are comfortable with a mic clipped to your lapel (we have some rad stuff coming out soon in regards to this, so if you can talk in front of a whiteboard, that will be good)
  • You like to teach people, and you've contributed a lot to Drupal and want to keep contributing
  • Kind of required: 3+ years of professional Web development experience, and experience with the LAMP stack
  • Also kind of required: strong PHP/MySQL experience with example projects (the track record is important)
  • Awesome: Familiarity with Actionscript/FLEX a plus
  • More awesome: Strong sense of commitment, responsibility and a willingness to own stuff so we don't have to follow you around with sticky notes
  • Insanely awesome: Ambition and a desire to make your mark on Drupal and Web Engineering in general

This position can be in our San Diego or Sacramento offices, or elsewhere or at home for the right person. Location is not a blocking factor for us.

Why does this job rock?

  • You get to work with top Drupal talent in a bigger company
  • We're pretty nice people
  • We give our devs the best gear (30" monitors, 15" macbook pros, and a linux box under your desk it you want it bad enough)
  • You will grow here. We are building Drupal products and services (cloud computing, cdn, autopilot), and are going places.
  • People like it here. Really, it took us a while to figure it out. But people work here because they want to work here, not because it's "a job." In fact, we don't want people who just want "a job" we want people who are passionate about what their doing, and want to learn how to build rad stuff, and combine business and technology for Transformers-level domination
  • There are 32 more reasons, but you have to apply to find out what they are

Did we mention that all of our engineers get brand new MacBook Pro Apple Laptops and + 30" screens with good chairs?
