NYCPHP Meetup

[Technojob]

Freelancers Union, a national non-profit organization, represents the needs and concerns of today’s independent workforce through advocacy, information and service. We are passionate about our mission to improve working life for independent workers - a community representing 30% of the U.S workforce. And we’re the people behind all those insurance ads with the beehive that you see on the New York subways.   

We are seeking well-rounded and experienced Web Developers to create and maintain various online products and services.  We work with a diverse set of technologies and our projects span multiple domains - from health insurance to political action.

You should have experience with:
  - Python, Java or PHP5
  - Javascript, HTML, and CSS
  - Database design and SQL    
  - (Obviously!) Developing for the web (working knowledge of HTTP, caching, sessions, etc.)
  - Developing in a Linux environment
  - Administering web servers (specifically Apache or Lighttpd)  


It would be great if you also knew about:
  - Application deployment and maintenance with Make, Maven, setuptools, and simple shell scripts
  - Frameworks like web.py, Django, Restlet, and Spring
  - Back-end queuing/messaging - ActiveMQ
  - Progressive enhancement techniques / graceful degradation  


  Lastly, you'll get special consideration if:
  - you are an electronic toy instrument virtuoso
  - you can make a delicious grilled cheese 
  - you have uncanny accuracy with Nerf weapons  

   

To Apply:  

If we sound like an organization in which you can develop and thrive, please email your resume with a cover letter including salary requirement to: technojob at freelancersunion.org. Resumes without cover letter/salary requirement will not be considered.  

Our offices are located in DUMBO, one stop in Brooklyn off the A, C or F and one block from the East River and Fulton-Ferry State Park.
