We are looking for one, possibly two more very talented developers to join jWeekend's team.
You will have exceptionally strong OO, Java and Wicket skills, and already be deeply into, or have a strong desire to become highly proficient in Scala. You already enjoy writing clean JavaScript, XHTML and CSS. You see the value of and enjoy writing sensible tests and are experienced enough to know no work is complete until you have thoroughly tested it. You are also the type that loves to discuss ideas, concepts and share knowledge, but can concentrate well and work efficiently alone too. Frameworks you already use, or are keen to master, include Spring/Guice/JPA2 and possibly GWT/SmartGWT. Our current projects include architecting, designing and building scalable event driven infra-structure, plenty of knowledge transfer, some Drools, and, naturally, state of the art web-application development. Creating Scala DSLs looks like becoming increasingly relevant to us. Some of our work is confidential/sensitive, so integrity and good-judgement is essential. You will generally be contributing on multiple jWeekend projects at a time, both internally (R&D or product development) and for our small number of close clients in a variety of industries, where you will be confident to pick up and be productive with their applications/code and new frameworks/technologies we need to use without fuss. You will be encouraged, and even given work time, to contribute to open source projects we support like wiQuery, and to (at least) test and provide patches for Wicket 1.5. It is not required, but if you would like to, you could be given the opportunity to work on course material and even deliver training if you consistently demonstrate the essential qualities. Although you may be able to work from home when appropriate, you will also be happy to be on client-site (suit and tie) whenever it's required, even for longer assignments, or at our office, so, it is our preference that you are living in London. For an exceptional developer that demonstrates the ability to comfortably and efficiently communicate with the the rest of the team and demonstrates excellent integrity, we may reevaluate this. A visa to work in UK (preferably anywhere in Europe) may be essential, and it would be a bonus if you can work in the USA too. If you are coming from abroad to work with us we will help you settle in London. You most likely have at least 3 years solid experience with all aspects of core Java on professional quality projects, to supplement your excellent bachelors or masters degree. You can expect a GBP30k-GBP55k package (comprised of a fixed basic and revenue sharing, with negotiable format) in your first year with us if you are based in London, or, the equivalent remuneration for such a role/your experience in your locality if you are not in London. In exceptional circumstances, we can review initial terms after as little as 6 months. If you are not the type to study books like "Effective Java", or "JavaScript, the Good Parts" and try out new technologies just for fun, or to master Scala by reading Odersky and, importantly, writing lots of code (which you can also keep well organised and documented so others can learn from it later), then you're probably not going to be a perfect match. We operate in a sometimes demanding environment, with knowledgeable, confident and sometimes forthright clients and colleagues, so shrinking violets could find it tough too. Please contact me [1] including bullets highlighting your experience/skills/passions and have a CV ready for when we get back to you because we can arrange interviews as early as this week.
