  • Crafting and testing site features for desktop and mobile to enhance traffic and advertising revenue.
  • Developing an author portal and media asset management utility, alongside an automated advertising system.
  • Enhancing our new forum system in Vanilla Forums.

  • PHP
  • MySQL (MariaDB)
  • HTML/CSS (HTML 5 and CSS 3)
  • JavaScript/jQuery
  • Familiarity with a content management system, ideally Drupal, Joomla, or WordPress (we currently use Drupal 7)

Optional Skills

While not required, familiarity with any of the following optional skills would be beneficial:

  • Linux (CentOS 6)
  • VirtualBox for development environments
  • Website optimization techniques, including front and backend caching: Varnish, Memcache, APC

About the Candidate

We want to talk to you if you:

  • Are a confident, independent problem solver
  • Enjoy freedom and flexibility in managing your work time and meet deadlines
  • Thrive in well-researched, scalable long-term solutions with strong documentation
  • Seek a full-time role within an established, profitable company
