My company is looking to hire in the Phoenix area. Location: Tempe, AZ Languages: PHP / LAMP mainly. Some frontend JS as well, a few projects have node.js, and one or two use Python. There's also a team on the java platform as well but usually the developers are silo'd into one of the two groups and we have a greater need for the LAMP/* group. Frameworks: Depending on the project it's Zend Framework 1 or Symfony. backbone.js for some of the frontend sites. Contact: matt.cordes@gmail.com There are a few positions open as well, broken down more or less as such: -Full Stack Engineer (broad array of projects, some public facing, some not) -Java Engineer (backend web services) -UI Engineer (strong javascript with a mixture of work in html5/CSS3 and a little bit of graphical/PS/CS as well) -DBA -ETL Engineer (looking to put together active integrations into a single data warehouse from our various systems, for BI and analytics usage) Here's the official listing for the "full stack" position: http://www.freedomfinancialnetwork.com/jobs/149/full-stack-developer--php---1007 And for more general job listings: http://www.freedomfinancialnetwork.com/jobs Experience level can vary and of course you don't need to have exact matching experience with the technology stacks we use. The company treats their developers very well. Pay is above average for the area, good benefits, a wonderful development team, they'll get you what you need, etc. Feel free to contact me directly on here by PM or with the above address (email much preferred, I can easily overlook PM notifications on here). Technically we do have to put any applicants through the HR system but I'm able to short circuit some of that so you can apply directly through me or go to the site and apply there (where your resume/CV will eventually make it to me anyway). Any questions or anything as well just let me know. Bhaal fucked around with this message at 20:23 on Jul 1, 2014 |

I have what I think to be a really great app idea (really! I've done research and nothing like it exists, and it'd solve one of my problems at least) but I hate Java with a passion. Is there a way to safely pitch it to somebody for a feasibility and cost analysis and not get snookered out of it if it really is the monster I think it is?

You could recruit people with a vague definition and then write up an NDA for the juicy details.

It would be tough because every developer worth their salt has heard this same thing before. You could probably do better by: 1) Having actual real money to pay the developer. And more than $1500. Probably $20,000+. Oh, and actually give them a decent share of the IP, like 25% or more. 2) Demonstrate there is actual value to this idea - like set up a landing page, put some Google Ads out there and see if people will give an email address because they like the idea. 3) Use some non-Java framework like Phonegap and do the work yourself to get a basic prototype working. 4) Having no competition is not necessarily a good thing. It could mean that other people have tried this idea and failed, or that no one else will touch the idea because it's a bad one. 5) And really, you hate Java so much that you can't build a basic prototype? I mean, Java has it's warts but it's not that bad.

Thing is, if somebody were to hear the idea, say it's a monster, and agree to do it for 25% and $20k, I'd be all over it. I just don't know how to weed out A) the people that'd say it's a terrible idea just so they can run with it themselves, or B) the people that'd say it's a brilliant idea and whip up some lovely static paged app and walk with the $20k. For what it's worth, I've been kicking it around in my head for a couple months now, and I can honestly say I'd use it at least a couple times a week, and I'd bet you would too.

A is very unlikely to happen. Developers have a thousand ideas themselves and not enough time to implement them. And your idea is worthless without implementation which is what counts. B good developers will use contracts, master service agreements, and statements of work to detail what they will do. And you won't cut them a single check for $20k, you would split that up into milestone payments upon completion of work. It's great you're asking these questions, but developers have heard them all before so we're a bit wary of this scenario. Finally, getting rich in any app store is VERY difficult. There are tons of articles recently about this.

Bear in mind that even if you pay someone to implement the application/service and have an ironclad NDA/do not compete agreement with them, if your idea is actually a blockbuster someone else is going to straight up copy it immediately after you publish your idea. You could patent it I guess if it's patentable, but that's a super ridiculous road to go down if you're not rich.

Trust me, we don't care about your idea. I mean, we care about building a good product for you, but turning "hey I've got this great idea" into something that actually makes a shitload of money takes a very long time outside of the development work itself, if it ever happens at all. I've built more (web) apps for founders than I can remember and while I wish every one of them the best of luck, founding something is a big risk and a long term commitment. I'd rather stick with getting paid cash for doing defined work than take your idea and all its risk and cost, as would most professionals. You're right to be worried about someone building something shite, so look for references, and make sure they're showing you a working version first before you pay them.

Pudgygiant posted:Sure, but they don't draw any users from the real Tinder, because they're just a much worse Tinder with no penetration. Your brilliant idea probably won't generate orders of magnitude more than 20k even with amazing implementation. And yes, every developer has heard all of this before in many different places. We start getting it as early as high school or college. No, my cynicism is not unusual in the developer community; to a certain extent it's what both of us are banking on in different sides of the scenario. If your idea is much larger than I think it is, you won't be able to do it for ~20k. In that scenario your options are to seek investment, a cofounder, learn to program, or some combination of the above. Or somehow get loads of cash, hire someone who can build a solid tech team, and drop megabucks keeping everyone fed and pampered at your new office. We can't tell you where it falls on the [lone person does it over a few weekends, you don't have enough money for this] spectrum unless you tell us what it is. I get that you/it are a special snowflake and all, but whenever anyone other than <bigcorp> or <people I actively want to work with> ask me to sign an NDA before talking I pretty much laugh in their face. And before you ask, no I'm not available to work on your whatever-it-is that probably does exist that you just failed to find.

Okay getting tired of underwhelming applicants. The problem with being a Rails shop is you get people who know Rails and nothing else. So how's this for a different sort of ad. Location: Wellington, New Zealand Availability: The position is full time, but we're flexible as gently caress as long as you get the job done Software Dev Languages: Ruby, Javascript, but seriously if you're competent let us know and we'll talk. My interview had zero Ruby-specific questions. Frameworks: Rails Perks: Relaxed as gently caress Kiwi workplace, smart people who give a poo poo, and you get to live in Middle Earth Contact: PM me for more info, or username at gmail dot com Official posting here but it runs out so contact me if you want. Yes, we can help with immigration/relocation to varying extents depending on the person. We have folks from Asia, South America, Europe, and yes the US. You'd have to be worth it, so please don't waste our time. If you want to talk about compensation/lifestyle expectations or whatever, PM me. In general it won't pay as much as Cali or NY, but it's a very relaxed work environment that will allow you to live in a socialist paradise with real healthcare and progressive policies on marriage equality (yes), guns (no), and immigration (residents can vote). And you know, lovely loving scenery. If I already know you from IRC or whatever, I can probably give you a personal referral, so hit me up.

Looking for someone to build a website for my law firm. Will need some SEO work and the like, though you will not have to do much in the way of writing on the subjects we handle. Need something that is updateable by someone with a mediocre understanding of how CMSes work. Location: Remote. Timeframe: however long it takes, within reason. I am not really looking for a reinvention of the wheel, just something that works better than our competition in Arkansas (not difficult, honestly). Languages: Whatever, would prefer something made in drupal or WordPress. Contact: scott@protectingusall.com

Brio Solutions, the awesome place where I work, is currently hiring! We're not necessarily a startup, but there are only 6 of us currently in our Fort Washington (Philly suburbs) office. The current team consists of 3 devs, (one of which is kind of a "lead dev" in the sense that he does a lot of the planning and architecture, but it's not anything that set in stone), an operations director (think project manager on steroids, she would be your day to day boss), and the two founders, who do a little dev work still, but mostly interface with clients to get more work. Our devs are all full stack, but each brings a bit of expertise to the table. We are primarily a .NET shop, but that might not always be the case in the future, and we're definitely open to people with other C style language experience (one of our devs was a Java guy at first) and we'll bring you up to speed. We do anything from simple CMS type websites (DotNetNuke) to fully customized Windows and web software. tl,dr?

Not sure if this is the best place to ask, but I'm looking for a programmer type to put together some really simple excel macros that would make my job and life much easier. Basically just code that takes an input in one format, edits it automatically to a proper format for excel to work with, then some simple calculations. Not sure exactly what the capabilities are but if it's possible to built in some simple functionality with other programs outside of excel that would be something I'd want to look at also. PMs are best way to get in touch, I can't pay a ton but I'm sure we can work out something we both think is fair.
