Original posting

Virginia Beach, VA. Must relocate. Looking for an outstanding software engineer. We help people find apartments. We're an Agile development team for the flagship division of a well-established Internet advertising company. We run multiple sites receiving over 3 million unique visitors a month. Our company is primarily a PHP shop, but we care less about your knowledge of PHP and more about your understanding of object-oriented programming and interpersonal skills. (If you'll invest in us, we'll invest in you.) Also, we maintain a lot of mobile apps and are developing some new applications with Ruby on Rails. We're looking for people who at least have an interest in design patterns, unit testing, test-driven development, and Agile project management. In addition to just running traditional big websites, projects focus on mobile websites, mobile apps, client-side awesomeness, SMS services, web analytics, reporting, automated testing, highly available systems, user experience, web services, data distribution, email marketing, search engine optimization and various administrative tools. It's very rare to work more than 40 hours a week here. As a new team member, you'll get a brand-new iMac and a 24" second monitor. You can run whatever OS and IDE you like. Your meetings will be focused on collaboration rather than process. We focus on working software, not comprehensive documentation. We hire motivated individuals so we can give them the tools they need and trust them to get the job done. There are frequent technical training sessions. There are various user groups within the company that meet once a month and lunch is always provided. We also provide tuition reimbursement. Call Andrew at (757) 739-0397.
