perl OR python OR ruby AND XML AND database AND job

Description:
Hello,

I'm not a fortune 500 company and I can't offer you a corner office overlooking the city. I'm just a regular guy with a website that sells stuff and we've outgrown the off-the-shelf shopping cart we've been using.

What I can offer is a contract job that should take you about 6-8 weeks to do and I was going to pay around $6-7K for it. If that seems to be too low, we can talk about it. You can work anywhere. You can work in your underwear.

All I care about is that you are proficient at perl, ruby or python and XML, PostgresSQL, MySQL or other database, that you can show me other ecommerce sites you've developed, provide references and can communicate in English well. Oh yea, you have to be honest, trustworthy and commit to finishing what you start. :) I'm just looking for that one special person that has a passion for solving problems with code.

This is a fairly extensive job and it's not for the first timer, nor the second timer. In fact, it's for someone who's done a good bit of programming, is a security fanatic, likes to work on interesting jobs, and enjoys working with someone who likes to do things right. I think you'll find the task challenging, rewarding and you will most certainly be a better programmer because of it.

Future contract jobs will also be possible, and I'm make one heck of a reference for you.

Please send an email to:
disposable1@trueblueoval.com

and please put "perl/python/ruby/XML/database job" in the subj. line and I'll reply with a long description of what needs to be done with a couple of templates to illustrate it.
