WANTED: Summer Intern for 4-12 weeks starting July.
We believe that patchworkpie can replace the expensive middle-man in temp-work, one-off services and tasks.
We believe people should be paid what their work is worth, whatever their age, job or experience.
We believe that patchworkpie can flip the UK labour market on its head, and we want someone who believes in helping us to realise these aims.
Revenue is not our aim, we're not driven by a lust for profit, but purpose.
We want you to be able to spend more time doing what you love, whilst embracing a lost sense of community within Bristol and other cities. People for People.
If you want this to, then please read on or pass it on to someone who can help us.
Title: Godfather of Code [Web Developer]
The majority of your days will involve:
Building a commercially viable, high-impact and rapidly scalable web application
Rolling out progressive site-changes to our 800+ registered members, following Lean Startup principles
Preparing and acting upon functional and technical specifications in collaboration with the Technical Director
Gaining incredible experience within a highly adaptable team, who trusts you, and gives you the freedom to excel
You don't need:
Specific expertise. We aren't looking for experience in any particular technology as our passion is the product, but you should have an impressive collection of cool projects. Javascript knowledge could come in handy
You need:
Mastery of the technologies you've used in the past. We hope you'll be able to pickup a language or framework if we throw it at you (or visa versa if you throw some back at us)
An ability to chew through difficult software problems, with an attention to detail
Great intuition for how users like to learn
4-12 weeks of availability over the summer plus the right to work in the United Kingdom
Visit patchworkpie, and if you're interested, please send us a short cover letter, with examples of any projects, especially live, but please do not send your code.
Please send this to Alex at [email protected], with dates you're available for interview.
This is our first project and we're damn excited about it, we hope you will be too!
