Ping Identity Corporation, a mid-sized identity solutions company, is currently looking for 2 contractors (3+ months w/option to hire at contract end) to assist in developing and extending our internal corporate application platform. This internally-developed platform drives most aspects of our company, from sales leads to support to applications that assist in day-to-day operations. We are currently our platform entirely to Ruby on Rails (~60% complete at this stage) and need additional, dedicated individuals to help us round out the system and drive future development. Applicants must have at least 2 years of prior web application development experience with demonstratable Ruby on Rails skills. Applicants must also have experience with relational database systems (MySQL or PostgreSQL preferred). A strong commitment to web standards and quality, test-driven code is a huge plus as is the ability to design intuitive applications. Our development environment is Mac OS X (workstation provided) and we deploy on a cluster of servers running Debian GNU/Linux. We are looking to hire immediately and will consider remote contractors. If you are interested in applying for one of the available positions, feel free to send me an e-mail or give me a call at 303-468-2866. Thanks! Justin Mecham Sr. Web Architect Ping Identity Corporation ---

Justin, I would certainly be interested in working with your company on a telecommuting basis. My name is D’Andrew “Dave” Thompson. I live in Seattle and have been working in web development and consultation for small to medium businesses for almost 6 years. I have worked with a number of different types of businesses, most recently an insurance company, McLeod Insurance, [www.mcleodins.com](http://www.mcleodins.com). I am well experience in XHTML, CSS1&2, JS/AJAX, J2EE, PHP, and most recently Ruby on Rails, since 0.13. My background is in Linux/Unix. Currently I am using Mac OS X, which is the platform I have used for the development of all projects listed in this email. I typically use Eclipse 3.1 w/ RadRails plugin (a carry over from my java days), but am also comfortable using textmate. Recently I have headed up an open source project which I will be releasing next month called CampaignOS. Here is the project page: > **[CampaignOS](https://sourceforge.net/projects/campaignos/)** > > Download CampaignOS for free. Policorp is proud to announce CampaignOS, a state-of-the-art web based CRM system for managing political campaigns' records, events, financials, gov't compliance and reporting, built with RubyOnRails and fully... Our original design concept can be seen at [http://www.policorp.com/demo/](http://www.policorp.com/demo/). However, recently we have decided to scale-down the user interface and general theme for our first release, opting for simplicity over feature-set. I am waiting to release the project. We are waiting for an XML RFC from the Public Disclosure Commission of Washington State (which will allow our product to file financial reports in real time with the state governing board). I am also sponsoring and the main developer for the rCalendar project. This project will provide a Rails engine with a fully iCal compliant calendering system. Feel free to review the project trac at [https://opensvn.csie.org/traccgi/rcalendar/trac.cgi/wiki](https://opensvn.csie.org/traccgi/rcalendar/trac.cgi/wiki) Thank you for your interest. (PS - I would call you, but I’m finishing a contract out on a Navy Base with no cell reception. I should be available via phone tomorrow. For now email is fine.)
