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.

That is the case with one of our clients in the Chicago west suburbs. This is a position with a highly reputable research organization that sees the light when it comes to leveraging open source and specifically Python and Django. They've begun some work already with Django and are looking to add to their team for a 2-3 month engagement that, if history repeats, could extend beyond that duration. We need to assume that the work needs to be done on-site, but some of our other developers have been allowed to work remotely, once demonstrating their proficiency and learning to work well with the team and environment. The client prefers 3+ years of experience and experience with a web development framework that does the typical MVC thing and makes developers more productive, but if you also have Django experience, that will help close the deal. You'll work in this position as a sub-contractor or 1099 and will need to have U.S. Citizenship (it's a government-funded project.) Solid experience with relational databases is also preferred (such as Oracle and/or Postgres.) Your hourly rate would be $55-60/hour and no additional expenses are expected to be reimbursed, since all travel will be local to the Chicago area.
