Web Developer with Drupal, PHP, and MySQL, (Haymarket, VA / Telecommute)

by kellyh Contributions — Published on Jul 22, 2009 12:08 PM — expired
We are a small, professional creative firm located in Northern Virginia. We are growing our team and looking for a talented full-time developer with strong Drupal, PHP, and MySQL background.

Employment type: Full time
Telecommute: Allowed

Our flexible services focus on high-quality design, standards-based front-end code, and free software back-end development. We have a large variety of clients ranging from non-profits to restaurants to large corporations. Most of our exciting new projects are utilizing Drupal. Your role would be our primary back-end developer on these client sites: configuring Drupal, customizing existing modules, and creating custom ones when needed. You will also help define requirements for new projects, and take the lead in planning and developing new small-to-midsize PHP/MySQL web apps (outside of Drupal) for clients.

Being a creative firm, you will need to have a decent eye for design and coordinate with our visual and interface designers when developing user-friendly sites.

We do not have a central office, so you will be able to work independently from home. Preference will given to someone in the DC metropolitan area so we can still meet occasionally.


Skills requested:

  • Strong experience with professional and best practice PHP, MySQL, and Drupal module development.
  • Develop and test secure, clean, and well-commented code.
  • Experience with CiviCRM would be a big plus for one upcoming project.
  • Able to communicate and play well with our visual designers and front-end coders to ensure output is beautiful and user friendly.
  • Decent web standards knowledge (HTML, CSS, JavaScript/jQuery). You don't have to be a CSS and accessibility guru... just solid enough to maintain and expand valid templates from our ace front-end coders/themers.
  • Able to multi-task on multiple projects at once.
  • Can work independently from home and still meet tight deadlines.
  • Willing to work full-time for a small, but growing design firm without a rigid corporate structure or office -- set your own hours as long as you get the job done.
  • Can communicate well with clients and (if you're in the DC area) willing to attend meetings.
  • Can start right away! We're hoping for a full-time employee, but can start on a trial freelance/contract basis if you want to get familiar with our company.

    • Job starts immediately! Please send your resume, portfolio, and salary requirements to jobs@saforian.com. We'll try to respond quickly. Learn more about us at www.saforian.com.
