Job Available: Programmer for Kete Team

15 February 2008

We're looking for a programmer to join our Kete team working with Ruby on Rails. The Kete project is really taking off, so we'd like to expand the team by adding a person who is a quick study, wants to work from home, and is in Wellington (Or wants to be).

We'd like you to have

  • Ruby On Rails experience
  • Work from home experience
  • Perl Skills
  • Writing skills
  • A good IRC manner
  • Self motivation
  • No fear of the command line interface in Unix
  • Te Reo would be fantastic
Katipo specialises in offering services based on Open Source Software. You will be contributing code to the Kete application and providing custom solutions for our clients. You will also be interacting with the Kete community by sharing your knowledge on the Katipo blog and the Kete.net.nz site.

As a Katipo employee, you'll mostly be working from home. However, you will receive inperson training and mentoring. Team members keep in touch via IRC, email, as well as regular inperson meetings.

 

Bottom Line

Already being comfortable and productive when working from a command line interface on Unix or Unix-like platforms will make settling in a lot quicker.

If you haven't had RoR experience you need to at least have done the "Building a Web Application" tutorial from "Agile Web Development with Rails" to familiarise yourself with the framework (OR something similar).

 

Conditions

Pay: 35-50K

Hours: Doesn't have to be full time, but at least 25hrs/week
