Ruby developer for innovative music service and ISP

Description:
Playlouder are building an innovative music service from the ground up. To give you an idea, think ISP meets music community meets all-you-can-eat DRM-free download service. We aim to change the way consumers discover and download music online, and have the funding and the music industry relationships to pull this off.

The role - we have a small, talented team which we're looking to augment with a second full-time web developer. You'll be working alongside our existing development lead, sysadmin and UI designers on all aspects of our service, from wholesale ADSL to music discovery and download tools, community features and more.

We love Ruby, and the service is being implemented from the start with Rails as our web development platform of choice.

We can offer a competitive salary, laid-back work environment in London's east end, and the chance to play with interesting music-related technologies.

SKILLS

Most important is that you're a smart, creative all-rounder with good comp-sci skills, solid web development experience and flexibility in picking up new things.

Particularly useful, though, are:

- Experience with Ruby on Rails or a comparable Model-View-Controller web development platform

- Source control with SVN or similar

- Relational database skills - MySQL or Postgres in particular.

- Unix command-line skills and some knowledge of broader networking concepts

While not all essential, we'd also like to see some of these:

- Agile / iterative development methodologies in a small team

- Good object-oriented design and data modelling skills; refactoring; a sense of aesthetics about code

- Javascript skills (AJAX, DHTML, Prototype/Scriptaculous in particular)

- Keen on usable user interface design and its role in the development process

- Experience at a small company / start-up

- An interest in music

- Any other languages or frameworks a plus (Python, C, Perl, ObjC/Cocoa, Actionscript may be useful; Scheme or Haskell will impress us!)

- Any ISP or telco experience would be useful to us, although is by no means essential - the position offers good opportunities to learn about ADSL and the workings of an ISP if you're interested.
