[LA-Jobs] Renegade Software Architect Home-Based (Versata/DevFactory)

[LA Jobs List]

A new job has been posted on the Linux Australia website.
http://linux.org.au/renegade-software-architect-home-based-versatadevfactory
===================

Have you designed and implemented a wildly useful open source software tool?  
Have you used major parts of the Linux Kernel?  Are you red (2200+ rating) on  
TopCoder or a Top-50 reputation holder on Stack Overflow?

If this is you, or you’re comparable and can explain why, we want you.  We  
are paying $60/hr ($2400 fixed price payment for trial performance to  
successful hire) for a DevFactory Renegade Software Architect.  You’ll have  
to sign up or have some affiliation with an approved staffing and payment  
platform – you know the kind; it’ll charge a percentage fee on your gross  
earnings.  The pay rate for United States citizens and permanent residents is  
$48/hr to cover W-2 processing.

We are Renegade Software Architects, and we automate monotony!  With concise  
scripts, we navigate roadblocks by insightful workarounds: we conquer  
complexity with simple APIs.

Technical Skills You’ll Need
  As mentioned above, you should have accomplished one or more of:
  • Implemented significant parts of the Linux Kernel
  • Red (2200+) on TopCoder
  • Top 50 reputation on stackoverflow
  • Designed and implemented a wildly useful open source software tool

Non-Technical Skills You’ll Need
  • Speak English.  Write English.  Not perfectly.  But enough to discuss  
technical stuff with us.
  • Video Skype capability, webcam, and you know how to use them to talk  
with us and do daily work.
  • 40 hours per week available for this job.

How to Qualify
  1. Show us who you are.  We need verifiable identification, online skills  
tests, and a brief Skype video interview.  Sorry, this part is not paid, but  
it won’t last more than a week, and if you’ve got the motivation,  
you’ll be done in a few hours.
  2. Try out the job.  During a one-week fixed-price trial assignment, prove  
to us that we should give you the full-time position of 40 hours/week at the  
job’s hourly rate.  We’re looking for progress and dedication; if you  
show that, we may have other positions in DevFactory for you even if you  
don’t get the assignment quite right.

How to Start
  We’ll make you a fixed price offer to start qualifying, and you’ll get  
detailed instructions as soon as you accept this offer for the test phase.   
(This is not the paid part, but it’s how we get you into the appropriate  
recruiting team room.)
