#Us
We are a small London based startup still in *stealth mode*, working on a photo application that will challenge the photo sharing apps currently on the market. Thinking differently from the usual names, we want to offer a new approach to our users, and to do this, we are looking to expand the pool of our developers.
We are very small and pre-beta, with so many great things to accomplish and we want people to be committed to do what we do. We are looking for pigs, not chickens.
##How we do things
**Nine to Five is very 1990** and we don't believe in it. We don't reward hours, we reward results. You can be in London, California, China or Australia (or in all the places one week after the other) and it won't change a thing for us. We use chats, Skype, task management applications and we are immune to office politics.
The managerial style is very relaxed and target driven: we want to see good quality software, and we are not interested in micro-managing how you do things. The CTO has almost two decades of experience in development and has a passion for photography and how images can drive changes and tell stories.
#You
**You want to change things**, you are not afraid of taking risks and playing with cutting edge techniques to make the web a more enjoyable place. You breathe photographs, eat jpgs and the only sprite you know is not something you drink. You are an exceptional, result driven person who is not afraid of saying *"I made a mistake"* and does not shield behind excuses.
Experience is important, but attitude is key. You are a doer, for you *"impossible is nothing"* and you are a quick learner. Having at least a couple of years experience will open the doors to your CV.
Last, but not least, you think **code is poetry**, and shortcuts are for those who do not understand that poetry.
You are mainly a backend developer, but you can write front end html easily.
##What do you eat every day (must have)
- PHP5 and outstanding OOP
- Laravel
- HTML5
- CSS3
- Javascript
- GIT
##What of you like (Nice to have)
- Responsive design
- Organisational skills of a ninja
- Experience working in a TDD Environment
- Knowledge of asana GTD environment
#The Role
The various applications you will be working on may change from time to time. You will work on a set of clearly written specifications, and the time spend on documenting will be minimal. There may be time where information can be scarce, therefore a can-do attitude is important!
We are a diverse team, spread around the world, working in a very agile way. Every morning we wake up and set the tasks that will allow us to make meaning.
If you prefer the simple, straight to the point task list, here you go:
+ Check tasks and read a simple documentation
+ Transform a design vision into a sexy, working application
+ Communicate in simple, bitesize messages
+ Online meeting when needed
PS: if any any of the acronyms in this job description are obscure to you, or if you did not get few of the jokes (or even if you did not find them funny) maybe this job is not going to suit your style.
Please note that the shortlisted candidates will be required a Skype interview. The shortlisted candidates will be offered a paid test that will last a couple of weeks.
