Developers

If you can answer yes to the majority of these questions then you should drop us a line:

• Are you driven by the desire to learn?
• Do you immerse yourself in web technologies?
• Is coding an art to you?
• Do you know what a design pattern is?
• Do you believe in software freedom?
• Do you believe in doing it once and doing it right?
• Do you think that attention to detail is critical?
• Are you a lateral thinker?
• Do you want to stay at the forefront of Internet development?
• Have you a wide range of development experience?
• Do you want to (continue to) live and work in a family-friendly community surrounded by stunning scenery?

Good, you're still reading! In that case, specific skills that we'd be interested in talking to you about:

• Although we have some legacy Windows hosted systems, we are almost exclusively working on the LAMP stack currently. If you can't bear to be without Visual Studio, you are probably not for us.
• Good solid object oriented approach is an absolute must.
• Most of our development work is currently PHP5. If you are a Python / Ruby nut we're still interested in talking to you.
• Knowing your way round a Linux server, Apache config and bash. Most jobs involve a lot of server setup.
• As far as our developers machines go, we are largely platform agnostic. Currently ReefNet staff run Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Windows XP.

Designers

If you can answer yes to the majority of these questions then you should drop us a line:

• Does one pixel matter?
• Do you put usability and the brief ahead of creating art?
• Do you prefer to make a site that is intuitive rather than breaking the mould?
• Are you prepared to stand your ground over what is important?
• Do you want to work on a variety of projects, large and small?
• Are you the best person to take your work from concept, to Photoshop, to CSS and HTML?
• Does the work you did 2 years ago still stand the test of time?
• Do you prefer to work closely with the client rather than get your information second hand?
• Do you want to stay at the forefront of Internet development?
• Have you a wide range of web design experience?
• Do you want to (continue to) live and work in a family-friendly community surrounded by stunning scenery?
