Hello!

We are currently looking for a Software Developer of the geeky  
persuasion (so we figured it would be good to post here!) for a

remote work, sorry!). We are looking for candidates that will excel in  
a challenging, high visibility environment, where expectations are  
high.

The individual will be part of a system and business process re-  
engineering project - joining multiple databases and systems into a  
new streamlined and cohesive process. The candidate will be primarily  
involved with supporting the system development and implementation  
initiatives. The candidate will be interacting with a wide range of  
individuals from technical to high-level management.

Responsibilities / Qualifications:

- 5-7+ years software development experience.
- Strong expertise and engagement throughout full SDLC.
- Very strong JavaScript experience.
- Very strong HTML experience, with CSS experience preferred.
- Good overall database skills.
- Significant experience with Ruby, Python, Smalltalk or other  
scripting technologies in addition to JavaScript is preferred.
- Experience with QuickBase or Flex is also a plus.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
- Ability to work independently, and work quickly on your feet.
- Bachelor’s degree in related field.
