SEEKING FREELANCER: Javascript Programmer (Seattle/Bellevue : Onsite preferred) - http://www.imprev.com

We are looking for a Javascript Pro to build a rich-client interface for our Application. Contract work for 6 months.

You’ll be working with a team of full-stack developers building a large, browser-based application using Backbone/Marionette and communicating with the server (implemented in Java) using JSON-RPC and Barrister (https://github.com/coopernurse/barrister) (we’re not RESTy… you’re cool with that, right?). You’ll be rationalizing wireframes against our API, interacting with business folks directly, and building highly interactive,modular interfaces that plug into our existing architecture.

Skills

> You write JavaScript…

> You’ve written a web application that’s rendered completely on the client

> You understand the tradeoffs of implementing test automation for browser-based JS

> You understand how to write something that works with old and new browsers alike

> You are comfortable talking to business people on your own in order to flesh out requirements

> You can write markup and CSS for your view code that doesn’t use things like clearfix or conditional comments

Plus other stuff, probably needed to survive:

> Several years (3+) of development in a team environment under your belt

> Basic understanding of *nix environment (look through logs, bounce services, etc.)

> Be a collaborator

> Be nice
