Telecommuting development positions

[Markbnj]

The company I work for has several open positions that can best be described as "Experienced .NET web developer," and "Experienced Python/Django developer."

These positions require the usual mix of geek skills: html, css, javascript, jquery, middleware, server administration, internetworking, sql, etc.

The company has a nearly 15-year track record of strong growth, and a couple of other unique attributes. First, the company is almost entirely virtual. If telecommuting appeals to you this is an opportunity with a stable employer that has built a successful business around that model. Second, while compulsory overtime is extremely rare, there is plenty of opportunity for voluntary overtime at salary + time and a half, or double time past a certain number of hours. That's fairly unique in my experience.

If these opportunities interest you shoot me a PM for an email address where you can send your resume.

Not sure if you're not aware, or just chose not to post there, but there's a long-standing thread in the off-topic section where people advertise positions, many of them IT related:

Anything that could be considered "entry level" and/or "part-time"? I'd love to pick up a second job, but my skill set is more application development than it is web development.

I chose not to, actually. I wasn't even sure about posting it here, but there are quite a few people here I've come to respect, and I decided to expose it to that smaller group.

Sunny... we're really not a very good place for someone in entry-level or learning mode. When you're working virtually you lack some of the support mechanisms you would otherwise have around you.

Honestly, Google is the only "support mechanism" I've ever needed in any of my endeavors. But I hear ya. Wouldn't mind finding something that I could branch out, so to speak.

No down and dirty stuff, just fluff?

Well, not down and dirty from your perspective. Probably the only thing I've worked on in the last year that comes close is a C++ library for XMPP over UDP w/NAT punch-through. Was fun .

Well, you know, the bottom line is either you can hold up in the interview or you can't. . We don't hire any specifically entry-level developers, but then if you can answer the questions we won't think you're entry-level.

Heh, Could be interesting, but unfortunately I'm newly and happily employed.

Best of luck in your searches.
