Seeking A Web Designer Who Is Skilled In Flash (Las Vegas)

February 8, 2010

in Design Jobs, Flash Design

Hi I am taking bids on installing flash templates on our server. We are a new Dot.com and Green Screen Studio and have a flash template that needs to be slightly customized in our colors and logo and installed immediately. We will have three other templates which will each need to be installed after the first, depending on your schedule.

I am not a web designer nor am I skilled in flash, however we can bring you a generous amount of work. We do not know the time it would take to complete each project. I did have a web designer do this for me about 2 years ago and it took him about 2.5 hours to complete the project and have it up and running.

I have lost contact with this gentleman and am desperately seeking someone new. Please contact me ASAP if you are interested. I would like to offer this job as an internship or $50.00 per template completed. Terms are negotiable. Call or e-mail to discuss further.

We are Vegas’s newest, largest film & television studio and we are looking for an Intern or someone to work with on an exclusive and permanent basis. Please contact us ASAP!

You must be skilled in FLASH with some graphic arts experience as well.

Thank You.

Software Developer with Ruby & Rails Experience Needed (Houston)

February 8, 2010

in Programming Jobs, Ruby on Rails

#Developer Position

ZipZoomAuto is a web startup that solves problems for independent car dealers (< 200 cars). We save our users many hours of tedious work by automating whatever could be automated. And sometimes we TRY to automate things that can’t be automated!

Our users include proficient folks that run blogs about their dealerships to 56K modem users that struggle with connecting their digital cameras to their USB. Our aim is to keep our app easy to use for all users while providing the features that facilitate their lives and increase their sales.

We are looking for a developer that has working Ruby/Rails experience. You will be the first programmer on the team (besides founder) and will be the technical lead in the company.

## Day To Day

* Designing and implementing new features. (Prototype first, (cuc/spec, implement, push, code review, repeat ), release (hopefully at fixed intervals) )

* CSS/HTML/JavaScript magic.

* Refactoring code. (that had to be done yesterday)

* Fixing bugs.

## Some Days

* Linux (Ubuntu) administration. (Git, Apache, updates, etc…)

* Tech support. (Around 1/2 to 1 day per week to stay in touch with reality)

* Demoing of app to potential customers. (Around 1 demo per week until process is fully automated with app design, guides, and tutorials)

## Requirements

You’ll need to already have done the following:

* Deployed web applications

* Understood advanced Ruby features like

** Closures

** Meta programming

** Loops (kidding)

* Disciplined with BDD and testing in general. (We use rspec and cucumber)

* Understood the Rails stack and are comfortable with it.

* Written unobtrusive JavaScript and well structured XHTML.

* Developed the discipline to get things done on your own. (no boss at ZZA, only colleagues with high expectations)

## Environment

ZipZoomAuto is in its infancy with a growing customer base. You’ll be more of a founder than an employee. You’ll play a vital role in developing the technical and cultural policies that the company will be based on. We’re guided by:

* The Golden Rule

* Making our users lives much easier through our product. (So they can go home sooner to their families and make more money)

* Judgment – We’re a small company so each decision made is a critical one.

* Honesty – No politics. Only say things about people that you’d say to their face.

* Communication – Understand the other’s point of view before making your point.

* Reliability – Dependable in your deadlines and work.

## Compensation

We’re an early stage startup with great potential and a market ready to be grabbed. We’d prefer to hire someone who can come into our office (Houston, TX) and work with us full time; but we’ll consider other working situations if it makes sense.

Working at ZipZoomAuto means you’ll get:

* 4 Week vacations. More if needed as long as work is done.

* Free gym membership.

* Health insurance (After first 3 months)

* Work some hours from home.

* And more…

## To Apply

Send code samples, portfolios, and resumes to work+craiglist@zipzoomauto.com and let us know how you heard about the job. Please include ‘Developer Position – Your Name’ in the subject.

Principals only, please. We will not accept any offers from recruiters.
