Our ideal candidate understands different technologies and can be flexible working in different environments with different coding languages. We are a small team, so we greatly value flexibility and your ability to learn and adapt.



Our strongest needs right now are in the following technologies:



-WordPress (more backend and custom PHP coding - but some front end)

-WooCommerce (how to do updates and ensure clients are not emailed or charged from test systems)

-Drupal (regular security updates and support)

-Shopify (both liquid and JS solution scripting)

-NodeJS / React / React Native (Larger engagements with sprints of work that start with writing specs and detailed estimates)



So if you know at least 2 or 3 of the above, you will be in the running.



Knowledge of GIT is essential, as is workflow and merging and reviewing code changes between developers.



Other skills of value:



-Familiarity with cpanel, WHM, DNS management, SSH, moving databases between servers and related migration skills is a great complementary skill.

-Experience as TechLead, doing estimates, writing technical specs and leading teams would be highly valued.

-General object orientated programming skills in many languages like PHP, C#, C++, Java, JS etc.



If you have what it takes to be a tech-lead, there is also the opportunity to lead in the architecture of solutions, refactoring systems, improving internal processes and documenting specifications for projects.
