Brave New Films is looking for a part-time Web Developer to implement our online efforts. This is a unique and exciting opportunity for the right person to use their tech talents to help build vital progressive infrastructure. Our part-time need is 10-15 hours for the week of April 18 and then full time for approximately May 5th – May 17th.

Responsibilities include:

Build HTML landing pages with light PHP and javascript for our campaigns
Manage ecommerce infrastructure by setting up donation pages on our sites and integrating them to our database
Address technical side of our email deployments and assure proper list segment assigned
Develop MySQL queries to pull segments of our emails list


Skill set:

Solid experience with HTML, PHP, CSS databases, and javascript (for landing page validation).
Excellent knowledge of MySQL
Ability to quickly develop a landing page that integrates with our email and donation tools
Good attention to detail
Enjoys fast-paced environment of politics


We use technologies and services like PHP, MySQL, Wordpress, Disqus, ActionKit, Google Analytics, and Authorize.net.

We care less about writing perfect code or complying with every standard, and more about birthing the clever idea that'll wreak havoc on the establishment.

Politics moves fast. We have some pretty intense deadlines, so we're pragmatic. Think startup meets non-profit political rabble rousers. We also get along well with people that have an excellent work ethic, juggle multiple tasks under tight deadlines, and realize this is not a 9-5 job.

Our offices are located in the shadow of Sony studios in Culver City, CA (LA) and the person can be located anywhere within the U.S.

In your cover note, provide a list of sites you have developed.

Your cover note needs to indicate you have visited our website.

Please forward cover note and resume to Laura at laura@bravenewfilms.org. No recruiters, please.
