We're looking to add some new people to our already extensive team, and are on the hunt for programmers who think they have what it takes to master Perl.

Traveltek is the UK leader in online travel solutions, from consumer facing websites to call center applications. We have customers big and small, from single high street agencies to the largest travel companies in the world. We handle millions of page views per month, deal with databases that process tens of millions of rows per hour, and offer a great environment for the technically inclined to challenge their abilities.

We're looking to add some new people to our already extensive team, and are on the hunt for programmers who think they have what it takes to master Perl. Perhaps you're already a Perl expert, or a PHP, Python or Ruby programmer who is looking for a new challenge. We deal with more code (3 million lines and counting) and more data (hundreds of millions of rows) then you've likely come across before, but if that sounds like fun, this is the place for you.

Some knowledge of GNU/Linux would be a plus, as this is what our whole platform runs on. Some database experience is definitely a must, MySQL especially. And as you will dealing with customers and we pride ourselves on good service, good communication skills are key. Finally, you'll need a willingness to learn. Almost everything we do is likely to be new to you, and you should be ready for a challenge.

This position is based in our Head Office in East Kilbride and the successful candidate will benefit from a competitively based salary.

Required skills:

  • Perl
  • MySQL
  • Desired skills:

  • Apache
  • GNU/Linux
  • mod_perl
  • XML
  • Buzzword compliance
  • To apply for this position please email us your CV. Stick "Perl Developer" in your subject line. Examples of your previous work, links to websites you've been involved with etc are a bonus.
