Our startup is about to leave the hushed darkness of the lab and step  
into the light by launching a web-based application. Our team has  
written the core “secret sauce”, but we need a fast and accurate RoR  
development team or individual to assemble a framework around the core  
and to deliver a package ready to deploy on a commercial ISP.

This is a small- to mid-sized application.

None of the following are absolute requirements, but we will favor  
applicants who:

- Can show at least 2 commercially deployed RoR based systems
- Are San Francisco based (or keep West Coast time)
- Have solid references
- Can articulate a sensible development philosophy and tool-set
- Can describe work-flow for customer / developer relationship
- Can start soon
- Are open to pair programming

If interested, PM me with contact information and any opening comments.

Thanks!

Craig:

Try clicking on the fearless\_fool link at the top of the message (aka  
[http://www.ruby-forum.com/user/show/8715](http://www.ruby-forum.com/user/show/8715)) and see if that takes you to a  
PM page.

I haven’t use the PM feature on this forum before, so if I’m wrong, my  
apologies! Let me know regardless…

Thanks

Note that a significant amount of traffic on this list comes via the  
Google Group, which doesn’t have any concept of “PMing” anybody, and  
where the only ID on the post is the generic forum-gateway’s email.
