NYCPHP Meetup

[Tech Jobs]

Link Experts is looking for an experienced software developer to join our team.

This position is full-time, onsite in our Manhattan (New York, not Kansas) offices. We are 
looking for people with full-time, commercial experience in Linux, PHP, and MySQL.

Please respond by email to techjobs at linkexperts.com with your resume in plaintext format 
only, (no MSWord, PDF, URLs, etc.), along with a cover letter describing how your skills 
and experience match the following:

Requirements:
- 2 to 5 years of commercial experience coding PHP in a Linux server environment
- Strong understanding and coding experience with the Object-Oriented features of PHP.
- Strong experience and understanding of relational databases. This is not the same as 
writing SQL. You should understand what makes a good relational db design. Specific 
knowledge of MySQL is preferred. Oh, and you should be able to write SQL as well.
- Excellent communication skills. This is for real, not just thrown in to make this 
posting look impressive. If you can't communicate your ideas and objections clearly and 
persuasively, how can anyone learn from all the wonderful things you know?
- Strong knowledge of ego-less programming

Desirable:
- Knowledge of, and experience with, the new object model in PHP5
- Experience with Prado a major plus!
- Knowledge of Apache's more interesting features and how they apply to PHP and web 
development
- Knowledge of XML and Web Services
- Experience using Subversion in the development of PHP sites.
- Knowledge of basic Linux system administration.
- Not being afraid of telling your boss how their ideas are wrong (if you know how to do 
it right).
- Previous contributions to open source projects. We'll encourage and support you in doing 
more of that.
