Hi --
We are a very well funded 20 person startup in the San Francisco Bay Area. We are using Drupal as the prototype for the server component of our product. It’s time for us to decide whether to use Drupal as the base for the production-quality implementation.
We are looking for help in two possible arrangements:
* Consultation on whether Drupal is a reasonable platform on which to build our application. This will be on the order of 5-20 hours.
* Significant development design engineering alongside our current engineers. (10-30 person-weeks, preferably split across 2-3 developers.) We would prefer to engage a single firm or pre-existing team but will also consider individual consultants.
Both of these tasks will need to be done largely on-site in the SF Bay Area.
If you are interested, please respond. In your response, please give us an indication of
* the nature of Drupal customizations you are comfortable with
* the backgrounds of the specific individuals who might be doing the work
* whether or not you've been involved in using Drupal as a platform for a shipping product
* your availability for a phone conversation this week or next
This is a great opportunity for the right individual or firm to be involved in an innovative and unusual product development activity and for our company to get a boost of Drupal experience quickly.
