Agoge, Inc. is seeking a part-time PHP developer to work on one of our websites, http://subeta.net.

Responsibilities include maintaining existing code, including fixing bugs, making upgrades, and implementing new features and content, as well as supporting our User Administrators when they need programming assistance.

Qualifications (what we're looking for):

  • Knowledge of PHP, Javascript, and MySQL - we're not looking for concrete experience in a past PHP job necessarily, but demonstratable skills doing LAMP web programming.
  • Responsibility, self-motivation and a willingness to learn are essential - you should be comfortable being handed a project and attacking it on your own, asking questions as needed.
  • Willingness to follow web standards and coding guidelines.
  • Personality and sense of humor mandatory!
  • Experience with Linux, SSH, or Subversion is a plus.
  • Experience with web scalability problems a definite bonus.
  • Located in the US.

    Benefits (what we can offer):

  • Work where you choose - collaborate online with the other coders and staff members.
  • Work when you choose - set your own schedule, work around classes and homework.
  • Earn real-world experience working on a dynamic website and the problems involved
  • Have your code used by thousands of users daily.
  • And of course, make some spending money!

    How to apply:

  • Email [email protected], and attach your resume.
  • Include links to projects and examples of your work (or attach source code).
  • Let us know when you can interview.
  • While you wait to hear from us, learn to use IRC - it's how we collaborate.

I'm currently studying web development in university but not ready to apply for any jobs yet plus I am not qualified in PHP or MYSQL yet. I'd say if the opportunity comes up again that I might inquire more about this job offering post for Subeta. A person who is serious about applying for the job will want to know more details on the pay, where they will be working from, and so forth. If it was a work-at-home web development internship opportunity for Subeta then I would jump on it in about a year from now or so. Definitely need some experience in my portfolio and resume.

I would apply if I had more free time and I weren't so lazy. Then again my Javascript skills are subpar

New programmer? Sounds exciting. Since I go to Agoge Inc websites other than Subeta, does this mean I'll be seeing more bug fixes if a new programmer is hired?

Wish I could ): Gl all!

I'll be taking a class based around this sometime soon; I know basic PHP, very little Java and MySQL, and then I'm very competent in CSS and HTML. Oh well, maybe next time. Good luck to any/everyone apply!

Good luck to all that are applying! I know some PHP, but not NEAR enough to help run a website like this... and I wouldn't have the time either.

Anyways, anyone who applies, I wish you good luck!

PHP is a (relative) simple language, a teenager could learn in their free time. JavaScript, MySQL and maybe HTML and CSS is learnt when working with the PHP language. I'm sadly not professional, nor live in the U.S.A., nor have the time or spirit needed for this things, so I'll just say:

echo "Good luck, guys!";

Good luck finding someone, I really wish I could but I'm just way to busy right now.

- There may be more professionals here then you think. Its the task of finding them in the huge crowd of other people that is the problem.

Haha, I wish someone could teach me PHP, Javascript, and MySQL and I'd totally apply! Just kidding, I think you need more than just those skills for subeta, it seems. o_o; Good luck finding someone new!

my guess is that it has something to do with taxes. A US company with non-US employees often has to jump through a lot of tax related hoops. I could be wrong, of course, but that's the first reason that pops into mind.

The "New News" is a lie.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

it's getting kinda annoying seeing this all the time, so i hope you find someone soon

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Good luck finding a professional PHP developer among us. (;

and yeah, I do like the old news post formats. But you guys are still moving in.

But would you want someone working on the site who wasn't one of the members?

I think it's better that way, because whoever they hire will know what Subeta's all about, and be able to capture its feel~

well, this is still a pet site with a lot of young people / high school students. I think it will be hard to find professional PHP developers among Subeta players xD good luck, though ^^

Hmm, these posts need more colour.

They seem so...so stuffy and formal.

Seems like a lot of advertising for just one position =P I thought there would have been tonnes of people who responded to the first one.

Oh well, good luck all
