[Jeremy Kendall]

This came across my desk today via Christopher Jordan at Robert Half
here in Memphis, TN.

Open-Ended Contract as a PHP Developer

Up to 35/hr DOE



Front- and back-end Web Developer, using the following:

Back-end:

· PHP (versions 4 and 5, as the primary server-side language)

· MySQL databases (schema design, and some administration)



Front-end:

· HTML

· CSS (style and layout)

· Javascript (jQuery or Mootools framework experience a plus)



Required:

· Should be familiar with the "full lifecycle" of development:
Seeing a project through from conception and planning stages to
implementation on the chosen platform.

· Should be familiar with the "Model, View, Controller" design
pattern.

· Should be able to use a Linux command line to navigate a
file system, and be familiar with basic command line tools.

· Ability to write clean, self-documenting code where
possible, and well-documented code otherwise.

· Ability to design clean and consistent user interfaces,
using basic design principles and an awareness of the user experience.

· Non-Web related scripting, like parsing/converting data
formats (XML, JSON, and non-standard formats), and report generation.



Big "pluses" (more personality or familiarity than pure skill, but
should be required):

· Ability to gather requirements (internally, from department
leaders), and develop web/browser-based solutions to their problems,
with a focus on usability.

· Should have some experience working with an existing medium-
to-large code-base.

· CakePHP or Kohana web framework experience.
