About You

Core development will be Java and Oracle on Linux. However, this is a
diverse role, and we are looking for someone who will be able to
perform a wide range of functions, such as administering databases,
web servers and linux installations, as well as tinkering with PHP
scripts. We are a small start-up, so require someone with key skills
willing to take on new challenges and learn new technologies. We are
not looking for someone who knows everything, but someone who, when
faced with a new challenge, is able to solve it for themselves and
learn from it. Required experience:

JEE Technologies (esp web container and web services), Hibernate,
Oracle, Linux Process experience: Agile, Scrum Tools used: preferred
editors, build systems [ANT, etc], code control [subversion] and Jira

Beneficial experience:

Computational Liguistics, HTML/ CSS/ Javascript, Flex (esp BlazeDS),
LAMP (P = PHP)

About The Role:

This is a contract role, there's nothing like getting to know someone
well before taking the commitment plunge. If you're interested in
working with us minimum 7 days a month and taking it from there, then
we're interested in working with you. As long as the results get
delivered then we're flexible about when and where you work.
