Hello, My company is looking for someone familiar with Rails, but *really* familiar with front-end web development; CSS, Javascript (Ajax + +good), and one of the XXp templating languages. We''re migrating a rusty J2EE-ish app to Rails, and we need someone who can flip between controller work and view development with ease. Very relaxed, flexible work atmosphere--we value working smart as much as working hard. This is a permanent, on-site position located in Madison, WI; relocation probably not available, but you should want to move here anyway--Madison is a beautiful mid-size city, and quite affordable. See the craigslist posting here: http://madison.craigslist.org/art/ 159351905.html Email me a resume, salary history, and definitely some sample work if you''re interested Jonathan Broad jonathan@punchstock.com Director of Web Development PunchStock, Inc.

Great city, large college campus located on an isthmus between two lakes. It has a great student union on the lake (which you can become a member of last I checked), lots to do on State Street, including lots of pubs, not to mention the college sports if you''re into that. I''m not certain exactly where this job is within Madison, but you''re never more than 20 minutes away from the campus (unless the city has grown tremendously since I left in ''92). I''m sure there''s plenty of stuff to do over in East Towne or West Towne as well. :) Some other random trivia: The Badger hockey team won the college hockey championship this year. They''re usually a pretty good team. Portions of the movie "Back to School" were shot there. It''s the original home of "The Onion". Did I mention the co-eds? :-P The band "Garbage" formed there. You can get "special" brownies at the Mifflin Street block party! (although, they may have cracked down on that) I hope you didn''t mind this post Jonathan!

I''ll second all of that. We moved away from Madison almost a year ago, and we still miss it.

Gosh, thanks for adding weight to my otherwise baseless assertion that Madison is a beautiful city! I''d add that it has more parks per square mile than any other city of its size, and is extraordinarily bicycle-friendly. This is a good thing, as I occasionally bike the 11 miles between my house and our offices on the far west side (off Old Sauk past the Beltline). I really encourage folks to throw their hat into the ring, if you''re coming to Rails from a more traditional web development background. You need not be a Rails guru--we need a great HTMList and Javascripter, too. However, there will be tons of opportunity to contribute to and learn from the Rails side of things.
