Sent on behalf of a mate; please reply via the details at the bottom. Frontend developer required to help build a web app with a lightweight cleantech startup in Sydney. Further details will be provided to the candidate however broadly speaking:
- the webapp (which is currently approaching alpha release) performs a set of analyses on a range of form inputs and an extensive database, renders a series of custom charts and maps, and will feature social media connections and a custom online store, among other things. We like to think we’re using a pretty top-notch stack based on postgresql / django / jquery / less / css3 / html5. - the frontend developer will have a strong foundation using the html 5 canvas, css3 and less - they will also be conversant in javascript / jquery preferably with experience with complex form elements, complex google maps api customisations and charting - for bonus points you will also have skills with developing mobile-ready webapps ideally using twitter bootstrap, rendering charts using the d3 data visualisation toolkit and/or ios / android development. You will be working with a team of three others: - the designer (Ed) who will provide the designs, icons etc. Ed’s largely completed the beta release designs and is currently working over the icons and detailing but he’s open to working with you on any new ideas you’d like to propose. - the backend developer (Tim) who you are likely to be working with closely on rendering the forms and data visualisation elements and tuning the API. Though Tim prefers to work under the hood these days he is secretly a bit of a ninja himself so you should have someone to bounce ideas off frontend-wise - the inventor (that's me!)- I'm coordinating the project and responsible for the core analytical engine. You will originally be employed as a casual freelancer working in the Sydney area preferably starting immediately with a plan to work toward a beta launch early next year, with options for an ongoing partnership if all goes well. Willing to work with wiz kids and wizened sages- we’ll assess each candidate on their merit. We're also willing to consider candidates with existing commitments (at least initially) if we think they have the ability to make it happen in the timeframe. Looking forward to meeting you!
