Good Morning All,

If you have an interest in chatting with me about the following position, and how it blends with your career aspirations, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at brianc@allsearchinc.com .

POSITION
Lead Software Developer – Open Source Environment

Based in the Laurel, MD area
Up and coming “Green” Technology company
Direct Hire/Permanent/Key Position
Salary Range roughly $100,000-$130,000 plus benefits plus considerable stock options. Will consider a candidate below or above that range, depending on overall fit.
RESPONSIBILITIES
This technology company is well funded, is growing very aggressively, has roughly 20 employees, and is looking for THE core of their technology team, a Lead Software Engineer capable of designing, building and bringing to market, the next generation of their firm’s technology base. This technology base is a modern, web driven, e-commerce based, full life cycle platform involving the public marketing, lead generation, order acquisition, purchasing, customer service, and all back end functionality of this companies green product line.

The firm is still in it’s early stages, and is very well funded, so there is enormous growth potential. Seeking a true senior who is experienced enough to establish a system framework and lead a team of developers as the company grows, but also someone who at this juncture is still highly interested in rolling up their sleeves and coding by themselves for the first year or so as the system and company come to life. The appropriate candidate will be comfortable and experienced in an Open Source environment. The existing system which is up and running and selling product, is built using such LAMP tools as PHP and MySQL, and you should also be comfortable with server management, workflow management, transaction management, and customer support management software.

The current base of technology shows well and is very functional, but now with more orders coming in and the company starting to take off, the firms goal is to rebuild a much more cutting edge software system, from the ground up, using the current system as only a rough guideline for what is desired. This next generation development effort, will for the first time, be done 100% in house, the goal being that this system will be one of the primary keys of this company’s infrastructure, and will be the major tech edge that keeps them ahead of the competition.

REQUIREMENTS

5+ years of open source development experience with a database back-end, preferably in a PHP/MySQL environment, preferably using some manner of modern framework
Heavy experience writing complex SQL queries to retrieve and manipulate data sets to leverage in PHP
Experience with Unix environments, preferably a Linux flavor
