Affinitive (www.beaffinitive.com), a Facebook Preferred Developer Consultant (PDC), is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our development team and work on fun, innovative projects in the social media space leveraging best-of-breed technologies, API's, and frameworks. This is a full-time, on-site position but we are open to an initial contract-to-hire arrangement to give us both the chance to "date" first. We like to keep things agile and develop iteratively, using test-driven development and continuous integration. We whiteboard ideas when possible, versus preparing 50-page detailed specs. Desired Skills & Experience:
* 4+ years experience working with modern web frameworks, social APIs, object-oriented PHP and JavaScript, and HTML/css * Must be comfortable with unit testing, profiling and optimizing code, databases, and other services for quality, performance, and scalability * Knowledge of a "NoSQL" database (MongoDB, CouchDB, etc) as well as strong relational database knowledge is a big plus * Experience working in an agency-based environment (interfacing with non-technical staff and clients) is a HUGE plus Most importantly, you need to be someone who is innovative, collaborative, inquisitive, and confident (but not cocky), able to meet deadlines, and have a 'do whatever it takes' attitude to your work. We have a great office jukebox, so having a good taste in music (and desire to play around with Spotify and EchoNest APIs) is also a big plus :) How to Apply: Please drop us a line at [email protected] - be sure to include links to relevant projects and code samples as well as your GitHub profile (if you have one), and your salary requirements/availability. ** Know someone who is perfect for this role?
