Posted: April 13, 2012 Job title: Pipelines Web Developer Company name: Holophrastic Enterprises Inc. Location: Oshawa, Ontario, Canada Pay rate: 20'000 - 40'000 based on expertise Travel: 0-25% Terms of employment: Salaried employee Length of employment: long-term, partner-oriented Hours: Full time Onsite: yes Description: Pipelines is our internal and proprietary web development platform -- written on top of Perl, of course. Call it a template language if you must, but basically it automates away 90% of typical web development -- connecting to the database, user logins, security, user preferences, et cetera. It also throws umbrella features over everything. It's really cool. Code repositories and version control are gone. We work on live sites (Pipelines protects us from stupidity), never document code (it's legible, that's the point), and focus on the client's business requirements. We sell them the flexibility upon which they depend. As most of pipelines pulls from the world of Perl, and it's perl core is continually evolved, Perl developers are particularly suited to this career. Pipelines includes dozens of sub-syntax languages of natures similar to regular expressions, so if you can parse a regular expression in your head, cryptic as it may be, pipelines becomes crazy easy. It is expected that you'll take a few months to get up to speed -- the learning curve is quite steep, but the work itself is really easy, and I have a lot of fun with it. This is a home-office, small-business sort of thing, with interestingly flexible hours. I'm looking for someone to start off as a protege, and swiftly grow to be able to handle most of the work in stride. You'll be replacing someone who's just left, with big shoes to fill. The job officially starts June 1st. Required skills: raw perl (no modules), javascript, building web-sites using some kind of templating language (e.g. template toolkit). An understanding of the general flow of a web-site from database, to backend server, to output stream, to browser client and back again. An understanding of the general problems in web development like caching and speed and security. HTML, inline CSS, basic MySQL. You must hate version control systems, we won't be using any. You must hate commenting and documenting code, it's redundant to anyone who can read the code. You must hate block-style css, it over-abstracts layout. You must hate optmizing code or writing efficient code, that's not the point. Everything we do here prioritizes the ability for the client to make changes. That's the only speed that counts. Desired skills: jscript, english writing, regular expressions, basic graphic work (cropping, colour correction, sizing, compressing) Contact information at: http://jobs.perl.org/job/11650#contact
