We are an early-stage startup with a great business plan, well-  
connected investors and board, and the seasoned management to execute  
on our plan. Our technology has been featured in SmartMoney magazine,  
National Public Radio, the Chicago Sun Times, Search Engine Watch,  
Yahoo Tech, and numerous television and radio news outlets across the  
country.

We are looking for someone to take our development to the next level.  
This is a great opportunity for a motivated developer to have a major  
impact working with cutting edge technology.

We are less interested in experience with specific technologies as we  
are in general development chops, willingness to learn quickly, and  
motivation and passion to succeed. We are currently working with one  
of the largest Ruby on Rails development shops, and are willing to  
train up the right person in Ruby to take the application in-house,  
working with some of the best Ruby developers in the country.

Should be familiar with test-based development, extreme programming,  
or be willing to learn. Experience in:

-HTML,-CSS, Javascript, and AJAX  
-Junit or similar testing frameworks  
-Web services  
-SVN  
-Apache and Lighttpd  
-Ruby on Rails, PHP, PERL, or Java2

Please send a link to your resume and some examples of work that you  
have done. We will contact qualified candidates for a follow-up.
