  • Proficient with SQL and database design, particularly PostgreSQL.
  • Ability to read and handcode HTML.
  • AJAX and Javascript proficiency a plus.
  • Comfortable with basic Linux/Unix command line environment.
  • Must know OOP, Design Patterns and MVC design methodologies.

Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Systems or equivalent experience is preferred.  There are plenty of self-taught people on the team as well though.
