In Search of a Pragmatic Programmer

2010-03-22 20:00:00 -0400


We’ve been really busy here at Zetetic lately and we’re looking for a new teammate to help us develop and support client systems and our own products. As a small and flexible software development consultancy, we’re mostly interested in personal qualities, not resume buzzwords:

  1. Natural or Artificial intelligence (robots welcome)
  2. Intense desire to learn new things & hack on technology
  3. An unflappably positive attitude
  4. Plays well with others

A background in one or more of the following goes a long way too!

  • Strength in at least one Object Oriented Programming Language (C#, Ruby, Java, Obj-c). Anything except VB.
  • Desire to “switch things up” and work on multiple programming languages
  • Experience with databases, relational SQL, or otherwise (mongo, couch, etc)
  • Security Technology (i.e LDAP authentication, Single Sign-on, PKI)
  • Linux and general networking
  • 2-5 years of software development experience
  • Located in Philadelphia, NYC, or Central NJ to allow collaborative work with our current team members

In short, we mostly care that you’re smart, love to hack, and get things done.

If this sounds like you, or someone you know, please reach out and let us know: sjlombardo@zetetic.net.
