Promet has been scouring the globe for you: a front end developer who wants to work with a whacked out crew of Drupal geniuses in Chicago. The front end developer is responsible for the creation of the front end theme of a website from design files provided by the design team (that's fairly obvious or "obvi" depending on your demographic).
We are looking for a full time or part time front end developer with great organizational and interpersonal skills that is experienced and driven toward code excellence. Read: You are good at what to do and play well with others. You must have experience in front end development and it is a HUGE bonus if it is with the Drupal CMS. We can train you but it's ideal if you have a Drupal background.
Promet Source is a global web and mobile application development company with offices in Chicago, USA and the Philippines. You will be handed technically challenging projects that require brains, creativity, curiosity and willingness to experiment. All while being surrounded by wit, sarcasm, occasional singing from the sales & marketing team, 4pm happy hours, free lunches that aren't from chain pizza joints and high expectations.
Our process revolves around continuous improvement in which we create local environments, scoff at database dependencies and genuflect to continuous integration (and all the auto buzzwords therein).
Are you smart, unique, forward-thinking, experimental, driven, and able to collaborate? Please submit your resume to: Promet-PRMT0701@applications.recruiterbox.com
