Beach.com is an Atlanta-area startup looking for a talented developer with fanatical attention to detail for implementing polished UX. We’re looking to revolutionize the travel industry through innovative products and solutions. If you love technology and the beach, lets surf!

We are looking for:

• An experienced developer with the proven ability to translate designs into nearly pixel-perfect web (Drupal) and mobile apps.
• Enough savvy to fill in the gaps with an ambiguous feature/design and “get it done” efficiently.
• 4+ years of web development on the LAMP stack, especially with Drupal 6/7, PHP, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
• 2+ years of application development with C/C++/Objective-C/C#/Java.
• 2+ years of experience developing in a collaborative environment through the software development lifecycle.
• Innate desire and ability to learn new technologies and platforms as necessary.
• Great development habits including high quality code, comments, code reviews, technical documentation, etc.
• Experience developing for the mobile web.
• Interest in working with a fast-paced, sometimes chaotic, and always rewarding startup environment.

Ideal candidates are also:

• Well rounded with other web technologies including ASP.NET, Ruby, etc.

Companies or staffing firms need not apply. This position is for individuals only at this time. Thank you.

Seeking highly skilled Drupal 6.x+ themer with strong design sensibility to provide support on a project basis.
REQUIRED:
Must know very well: html5, css3, getting around Drupal, experience with the omega theme and responsive design, Photoshop
Must be able to show: strong examples of websites you themed and either designed completely, or made specific contributions to the design.
Must have a strong knowledge of: accessibility, usability, and cross platform bugs and fixes (including mobile devices).

NOT REQUIRED, BUT WILL IMPROVE YOUR CHANCES if you have the required stuff too:
Good to know: javascript, JQuery, more than basic PHP, ability to provide backend development support (blocks, views, etc)

Work will include either completely themeing a design we will provide, supporting our lead design technologist in themeing sites, and/or sometimes working on the design as well.

I came to the idea after Dries's keynote (20/03/2012), to be more continuous.

While reading please (for a moment) forget technical difficulties.
This is an out of the box idea, please read it and give your feedback...

When looking at other trending, winning software(Firefox/chrome/mobile apps) They all auto updates.
Other dying software is holding on to big releases (IE6/7/8/9).
