Praca dla designerów i developerów - cały świat
Edlio: Front-end Developer/Support
(Austin, TX)
We’re a subscription software company with offices in LA and Austin. We work with schools to design and maintain their school websites. All sites run on a custom-built CMS, and our support team helps schools with anything the CMS cannot do as well as with helping educate and train users.
When we hire front-end developers, we look for those who understand what it means to say “semantic HTML” and who have read parts of the HTML or CSS specs before. You’ll start working on our support team but the sky’s the limit as far as what you can do.
We promote quickly internally if you have the right skills and the right attitude. Our business has steadily grown for 10 years and we expect even higher growth in 2012, so we need people to answer support tickets and slice PSDs into pixel-perfect (or close in IE7 ;) websites.
We also have plenty of room on our product team for someone with a passion for UI design, as well as a growing need for front-end developers with a knowledge of back-end development.
You should:
- Be an expert in writing semantic HTML and robust CSS
- At least know your way around Photoshop
- Have read pubs like A List Apart and 24 Ways
If you don’t meet all of these requirements, you better be a self-starter ready to pick things up from our more advanced staff while teaching yourself plenty.
Other plusses:
- Javascript experience
- Design sensibility
- Interest/experience in new front-end standards like HTML5 and CSS3
We are located in downtown Austin and are excited to hear from you!
Job Perks: Competitive hourly with paid time off, paid overtime, and health benefits. Fun environment.
Apply: Please email us an introduction in the email body, a résumé (PDFs only), and at least two links to sites that you have worked on with a description of the work you did. We value your ability to communicate.

With an emphasis on backstory and explanation, Newsbound is breaking away from the breaking news system. We're working to engage users who are motivated to learn about a particular news story, but feel overwhelmed by the pace and fluency of the 24-hour news system. Our mission is to expand the audience for substantive news and, in doing so, expand the broader conversation around these topics.
Central to the Newsbound vision is a belief that creative visual media helps lower the barriers-to-entry when it comes to complex stories. As our graphic designer, your primary responsibility will be to establish a visual identity for Newsbound's unique content and to generate assets on a daily basis (with an eye towards creating a reusable graphic library). In our office in San Francisco's Mission District, you'll work alongside a motion designer and a nimble editorial team to create compelling storyboards, icons, and illustrations that help illuminate the stories of the day. There is ample room to experiment and iterate. This is not your average newsroom.
You should have an eye for great typography and a passion for iconography and illustration. We expect you to have a degree in Graphic Design or commensurate experience. Knowledge of all things Adobe CS is a must. Experience storyboarding and working with After Effects is not required, but is a major plus. Above all, you must share our passion for making the news more accessible, engaging and user-focused.

23 Jan 2012Harvest: Junior Rails Developer
(Anywhere)
Harvest is looking for a Junior Rails Developer to join our team.
About Harvest:
Harvest is one of the earliest Rails applications designed for businesses. We took a rather boring and painful problem — time tracking — and applied our expertise in design & technology. We're making time tracking enjoyable and effortless.
We started as a team of 3 using Rails 0.14. Since then, we've grown to 19 Harvesters, serving thousands of customers from over 150 countries (and yes, we're now on Rails 3). We're a profitable and growing business that is completely self-funded.
Learn more about working at Harvest: http://www.getharvest.com/careers
Now, About You:
You'll be joining a team of 6 awesome developers, working on a popular web application that powers some of coolest businesses out there. Here's a glimpse at Harvest's development process:
http://www.getharvest.com/blog/2011/10/how-harv...
You should have a strong foundation in computer science, and some experience with Ruby & Rails. You are smart, curious, and eager to learn. We value honesty, responsibility, and humility, and we hope you do too.
Sample of Things You Might Work On:
- Recreate bugs and unexpected behavior, then fix the problem. Communicate the problem and solution back to our customers.
- Refactor code to use new technologies and techniques. For example, our report generation and export just went from a tmpfile on disk to streaming output from our Rails daemons.
- Collaborate with our interaction designers and front-end devs on a better first-time user experience, then make it happen.
- Explore exciting possibilities for 3rd party APIs — everything from financial tools to support dashboards to Google app integrations.
- Move a small codebase over to a new technology like Rails 3, Ruby 1.9.3, CoffeeScript, or CouchDB.
Job Perks: - Work that is meaningful, challenging and fun. - A Mac of your choice + GeekDesk (standing desk) at our beautiful Soho office. - Excellent coffee. - Good salary. - 100% health benefits. And a promise: no political B.S., cubicles, or TPS reports.
Apply: Email us at jdevs@getharvest.com with the subject "Harvest Jr Dev (Authentic)". Describe your CS background, tell us why you want to work at Harvest, and why you'd make a good fit here. Bonus points: include a link to your GitHub account.

- thirst for innovation and love for polyglot programming
- passion for standards-based web development
- obsession with software scalability and performance under high loads
- honesty, friendly attitude, and good sense of humor
We are looking for an experienced, talented, knowledgeable web developer...someone passionate about programming, software architecture, web technologies, database development, RESTful APIs -- often things that have not reached the mainstream yet.
Currently, we are obsessed with responsive design, media queries, test automation, asynchronous processing, and document databases, but tomorrow is another day and we don’t sit on our laurels (which include several EPPYs, Edward R. Murrows, and a Peabody). We seek a developer who learns fast, but who also figures out things independently and shows a better way, someone who is as comfortable leading as they are playing a supporting role.
This person is primarily responsible for assisting the NPR Digital Media Technical Team in creating, modifying, implementing, and maintaining custom applications for use with NPR Digital Media's systems, applications, and databases.
You will often be called upon to lead projects where you will be responsible for software design and execution and potentially manage other developers' work. Responsibilities also include assisting in the daily operations and maintenance of all of NPR Digital Media's systems and applications and assisting in the design and implementation of applications that address current and future requirements of NPR Digital Media.
Basic skills required:
- 8+ years of software development experience
- solid experience designing data-models and working with MySQL
- experience with Java/J2EE
- expertise in object-oriented and test-driven PHP programming
- fluency in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (which is not the same as just using jQuery, not that we don’t love the latter)
- experience writing software designs
- experience leading projects and/or small teams of developers
- familiarity with Unix-based systems (which includes the ability to write shell scripts and generally find your way around)
- experience working in a Scrum envionment
Bonus Points for:
- hardcore JavaScript skills (Node.js = double points)
- understanding of document-based databases
- understanding of functional programming
What else?
- We’re an Agile shop, provide formal Scrum training, and use tools geared toward rapid development
- We are located in DC's bustling Chinatown and within 5-10 walking minutes of a great range of restaurants, retail, and culture
- We are diverse, lifelong learners and read omnivorously from NPR’s giveaway book shelf, regularly walk down the hall to Tiny Desk Concerts, tell coding jokes, bring in baked goods to share, and edit bad grammar on milk cartons

- Work with the CMS we implement for projects, ExpressionEngine. We're big fans of EE.
- Work play well with a fun group of kids (22 to 40-something year-olds who feel like 22 to 30-something year-olds) from backgrounds in fine art, scuba diving, rock climbing, engineering, artificial intelligence, and the art of eating good food.

19 Jan 2012thirteen23: Front-End Web Developer
(Austin, TX)
Front-End Web Developer
A little about us
thirteen23 is looking for a front-end web developer to join our boutique software design and development agency. We're a small, tight-knit team of designers and developers who collaborate on each project from start to finish.
Because we're so small, you'll have the freedom to be creative and solve problems your own way. With freedom comes responsibility, though, so it'll be up to you to nail the execution, all the way down to the fit & finish.
A little about you
You love design and have a strong sense of what looks good and works well. You're obsessed with details and getting the little things right, in your code and in the final product. You consider yourself to be a tireless advocate of the end-user.
Everybody wants someone who can write HTML & CSS by hand, but you understand how a little help from Sass and Compass can go a long way in the age of CSS3 and vendor-prefixed properties. You're opinionated about template languages, and probably have strong feelings about Haml.
When you open up a PSD, you immediately start looking for things you can implement without using images, and can explain how the design will look different in older browsers (and why that's okay).
But you also love code, and have a strong sense of how elegant, modular programming enhances readability and maintainability. JavaScript is a joy to you because you only use the good parts.
You understand browser internals like HTTP, caching and the DOM. You care deeply about performance, from page weight to animation frame rates. You know why jQuery is awesome, and you're familiar with projects to help make writing large-scale JavaScript apps easier, like Backbone and Ember.js.
You use version control on every project, even personal ones.
Most importantly, you're addicted to learning new things and keeping your skills state-of-the-art.
If this sounds like you, get in touch.
Job Perks: Group Health, Short -Term Disability, 401K, 24-7 parking spot in the center of downtown Austin, regular team lunches and activities.
Apply: Please send cover, CV, and links to your portfolio, Github, Linkedin, or any other profile pages you'd like us to see.

(Philadelphia, PA)
Local talent preferred. We can offer relocation assistance if necessary. But if you're not local and can't relocate, we still want to hear from you if you're a great match!
We're looking for a PHP ninja with a strong Javascript background to join a small, best-in-class team of devs in a Philadelphia skyrise. This is a (primarily) backend development position, with room to grow into an architect role.
Our development efforts are done in sprints, and we're looking for someone who's comfortable and motivated enough to manage their own task list from sprint to sprint without needing someone else to keep them on track.
Here's what we need you to know:
- PHP 5.3, to the level of having used namespaces, closures, and autoloaders.
- Pure Javascript, with the ability to write classes with public and private scope without needing to put a framework like jQuery on top of it.

- Modern MySQL, using prepared queries.
- The basic concepts behind popular NoSQL solutions, and what MapReduce is.
- Design patterns like MVC, Adapter, Singleton, and Factory, and able to describe why and when to use them.
- Experience with some popular PHP MVC framework.
- Familiarity with HTML and CSS, enough that you can jump in and write your own interface in a pinch.
Here's what might make us love you even more:
- Experience with Node.js, and libraries like Express, Socket.io, or Now.js.
- Experience with non-blocking design patterns, and why and how to use crash-only design in long-running processes.
- Knowledge of PHP so deep that you can describe which calls generate a disk stat() and how to completely avoid them when using an opcode cache.
- Knowledge of HTML5 and all its handy not-yet-widely-supported features. Our internal tools are 100% HTML5 with no need to support ancient browsers. We have frontend guys for most of it, but a deep understanding of the technologies helps.
- Experience modeling data around popular NoSQL data stores.
- Experience with Amazon Web Services, and knowledge of how to write and maintain horizontally-scalable applications.
- Proven track record of writing great PHPDoc/JSDoc.
If you're a powerhouse dev who likes to stay on the bleeding edge, test and evaluate new technologies, and have ownership of your own projects, then we want to hear from you! Code samples on Github, Bitbucket, or similar are appreciated.
Job Perks: Fully covered health and dental, profit-sharing program, free catered lunch on Mondays, free catered breakfast daily, free snacks and beverages, flexible hours, laid-back environment, and more. Also, every game system known to man, connected to a huge HD projector. Just sayin'.

12 Jan 2012ion interactive, inc.: Front-end web engineer & UX advocate
(Boston, MA)
THE MISSION
We're ion interactive. We make the leading enterprise SaaS application for digital marketers to create, test and optimize landing pages, microsites, and other app-like web experiences.
Our software, LiveBall, is the most advanced in the industry. It's been adopted by companies such as American Greetings, Dell, DHL, General Mills, Intuit, and many other leading brands, handling millions of respondents each month.
THE OPPORTUNITY
We're seeking a terrific front-end engineer to help us really "up" the game of our software's UX, moving a lot more power into the browser via state-of-the-art Javascript. We're currently prototyping ideas with Backbone.js (for application structure), RequireJS (for module loading), and Handlebars.js (for templating) to create a much more dynamic and sophisticated user experience.
This is an opportunity to play a key role in the evolution of a popular, growing product. Your contributions can impact hundreds of name-brand customers -- and ultimately millions of end-users -- and lay the groundwork for the future of our development team, product roadmap, and our collective entrepreneurial destiny.
THE REQUIREMENTS
We are looking for someone with strong experience with Javascript and the DOM already, ideally with jQuery and related libraries; a good foundation of HTML and CSS knowledge; understanding of Ajax and JSON data structures; and honed skills for writing clean and reusable code.
You should have a deep appreciation of what makes a software interface usable, productive and fun. Graphic design skills aren't required, although they'd be a nice plus.
Above all, the most important qualities we're looking for are passion, team spirit, and the innate drive to produce quality work.
THE BENEFITS
ion offers the best of two worlds: we're a small, growing company of ~40 people, with all the exciting dynamics of a ground floor opportunity to make an impact; yet we're also profitable and have been cash flow positive for the past three years, with the ability to pay highly competitive salaries, offer a stake in future growth, and include some really nice perks.
Our product development team is based in Cambridge, MA. This would be there -- a very groovy space in the Cambridge Innovation Center, right across from MIT -- so we'd prefer someone already in the area. We offer flexible hours and support for working remotely, but we're big believers in in-person collaboration.
We work hard because we care deeply about what we do, but we're also very attuned to maintaining a healthy work-life balance. We believe that's essential to renewing the creative energy that's so valuable to our mission, so we have a very generous vacation and time-off policy.
Most of all, we've strived to build an incredibly special team -- smart, friendly, good humored people with a variety of backgrounds. If everything you've read above excites and inspires you, and you think you can really make your mark with us, then we'd love to talk with you. Please send an email and your resume to Scott Brinker, our CTO and co-founder, at sbrinker@ioninteractive.com.
