I am managing a project and need a module developed on site for an  
application being developed in Rails on a Linux server. The location  
is Lancaster, CA. The project will last 1 to 3 weeks. The pay range  
is $65 to $92 per hour and is based on experience with Rails.We would  
prefer someone local who can commute but accomodations may be available

for anyone from out of town. Experience is the main criteria and Ruby  
Rails references are required. Please email me at  
removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid.

Eric,  
Just curious, why do you want to be able to look at your programmer  
while he works? Most of us aren’t any competition for George Clooney.  
Just wondered, in this day and age, why you are so intent on having them  
local during the development?

best,  
jp

The decision to complete the remaining module on site was due to the  
fact that we went through 2 programmers who were severely under  
qualified and fell behind. I was brought in because of this. We lost  
some of his trust because of these previous developers. The client  
would prefer the remaining work was done on site.

Not so fast! My wife says I look like George Clooney. Or was that  
Curious George? Damn, I always get those two mixed up.

Neither. This job is non government. The project is for a large bail  
bond company’s call center and accounting department.
