Kick-ass Graphic Designer / Web Designer

grumblebee — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 09:00:51 -0800

My company, Nabbr.com, is looking for an full-time, onsite designer. We already have two MeFite's working here. Let's make it a third! Our company is thriving, full of talented people, and never boring. If you join our team, each project you work on will be wildly different from the last one. You'll be working on our web site, developing unique graphics for our clients, and making images for our sales team to use in presentations. Most of our work involves promoting trendy products (bands, movies, video games, etc.) to young people, so you have to have a hip, cutting edge design style -- not a super-corporate one. Take a look at our homepage, nabbr.com, to see our current design aesthetic. You won't be locked into this (we want someone creative), but you should feel comfortable with the whole "web 2.0, rounded corner" thing. We'll need you to be able to create production-ready images, which means optimized and, if necessary, sliced. If you have any Flash, web-coding, or video skills, those are pluses, but they're not requirements. We pay well, and there's a possibility for equity in the company. Please do not contact us if you're a freelancer in another city. We only want to meet people willing to work in our office, which is in lower Manhattan. We will entertain the idea of relocating someone, if he or she is talented enough. If you're a pro, you already know this, but I need to see a portfolio.

Online developer at Spokane newspaper

onemoreryan — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 10:18:47 -0800

We've got a great web team here in Spokane, a newsroom that buys into an online future, and we're willing to rewrite the rules of doing journalism on the web. But right now we're stuck on a site running ASP, with a design to match. So we're moving to Django, leaving our old site behind and relaunching from scratch. Our focus is intensely local; we want to give people in our community not just the news, but places to explore what they're passionate about. We're going to build something great, and then we're going to keep building great things. And we want your help. About us - We work for a family-owned newspaper, running spokesmanreview.com, spokane7.com, and other sites devoted to local news and entertainment. - We're offering competitive salary and benefits. We'll also help you relocate to Spokane, an affordable city tucked into a beautiful corner of the Pacific Northwest. What you should have - HTML/CSS/XML/Javascript background. You know the drill. We've got a great multimedia team, so editing and production skills aren't what we're looking for. We want a coder who likes to build the tools that our newsroom and readers will use. - Understanding of database development. Everything we do has a database underneath. We need someone with a strong, user-focused feel for the design and development of data projects. - A record of solid web development. This developer will help us build spokesman.com from the ground up. We'll be running Ellington, so Python/Django experience is ideal. But if you've got a track record in Ruby or PHP and Django sounds interesting, let's talk. - People skills. Our web team sits right in the newsroom, and the relationships we have with reporters, editors and photographers are crucial to our site's success. This developer will be working with all types of people, with all levels of comfort with technology. If this sounds like you, send your resume and links to Ryan Pitts at ryanp@spokesman.com.

Well, we're a small research/prototype oriented group within the self-contained...etc. We're in the SF Bay Area. We need someone who understands web security and malware. Not just watches the latest updates and knows to not click on URLs in spam, but someone who understands fast-flux, reverse proxies, zero-day i-frame exploits, and spearphishing. We'd like to add a domain expert who really understands the technical and social engineering aspects . We need to be more plugged in to the active research community; pre-emptively identifying new sources of infection and risk; and coming up with creative ways to defend against them. It's a pretty fun place to work (since we're an analysis group within what was a startup until last year when we got Assimilated) - and also pretty stable (since we're part of a large company). We have a range of science and tech backgrounds, and generally like people who can actually do solid engineering themelves, not just pontificate. Though if you pontificate really well (and write papers and design things that work) we're probably interested. We do a lot of conference and research work, but we also have real products with real customers and that drives everything we do.
