I have a 6 month contract in Seattle, WA for an Ruby on Rails consultant. The requirement is as follows from the project manager. I’m looking for a developer that has experience with the tools/ languages listed below. I need someone that can work quickly and with little “hand holding”. I already have a few projects in mind that we are storyboarding as we speak. I want a basic framework for these websites up and running within a few weeks of the dev starting, and then refine it over the next few months. In particular, I need someone who has experience in the following (most important listed first): - Ruby on Rails - Perl - Bash (shell) scripting - Small footprint database (MySQL preferred) - Apache - Java - Tomcat - JBoss - Linux (Red Hat) The more major of the 2 projects I have is to build a code deployment website (frontend and backend) that will interface to our release process here. The release process consists of a Perl script, so knowledge in Perl is required. The website will be built pretty much from scratch, so I need someone that has experience coding in Ruby on Rails and talking to a MySQL database. On top of that, experience with Perl is also a requirement.
