Ruby on Rails Developer
at Karin Warner in Columbus, OH
Do you feel the principle "Don't repeat yourself (DRY)" is not only a motto for any legit Ruby on Rails programmer, but should even extend to people's personal lives? Do you know what LinkedIn, Twitter, the World Stock Exchange (Second Life) and yellowpages.com all have in common? (Here's the answer for those who don't know: Rails) Are you an MVP when it comes to Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture? If so, your chance to grow your skills (and a company) is right here.
Where Would You Work?
At a firm that's created a nice niche for itself empowering companies to deliver on-demand streaming content. An entrepreneurial company, they've also created ways for their customers to generate revenue (hooray, eCommerce!) and reduce costs on that same streaming content! So if you're the type of person who can also think entrepreneurially, this is your chance to take a job where you can be creative and come up with new ways the company can leverage your development skills for new service offerings and lines of business--you get the chance to grow the company!
Skills to Pay the Bills
. Ruby on Rails development skills - RubyGems, packages, plugins; experience with editors such as TextMate or RadRails could be useful
. Other web development, web application development, open source software, open source web framework/platform, database interfaces, web and application servers, or scripting experience... anything including HTML/DHTML, XHTML, CSS, AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML), LAMP (Linux [shell scripting (bash, zsh)], Apache, MySQL, and PHP [or Perl or Python... even with mod_perl, PostgreSQL]) might come in handy, too
. Any experience with the Agile development process and methodologies, the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), User interface design, usability engineering and even SEO (Search Engine Optimization) knowledge would probably help elevate your candidacy
. You have to be solid on your "soft skills," too... Your desire, determination and follow-through should make you seem like you have the whole project management thing down pat. You've got to be the kind of excellent communicator who can both "speak geek" with and IT team and "get down to brass tacks" with a business audience. In a fast-paced environment, you'll have to manage multiple priorities, requiring your strong organizational skills and giving you a chance to flex your analytical and creative problem solving skills.
