Job Title: PHP Developer



Project Description :(What they will be doing every day)



This role will be part of a number of different projects, the first
major initiative will be an assessment project for their quizzing
tool.  This tool allows students to take a quiz and then customizes
the information that is returned.  For example if a student gets a 100
on the quiz they will send study information that is a grade level or
2 ahead of where they are.  If the student gets a 50 the tool will
provide study information for the specific areas that the student
missed.  The tool will aggregate the information and pass that along
to the teacher for the class along with multimedia tools to integrate
the class room.



The biggest challenge with this role will be providing scalable code. 
Right now they have a pilot program that is assisting 3-4 thousand
schools, over the coarse of the next 6 months they will be rolling the
product out to 60 thousand schools.





Must have tech. skills and personal attributes that make someone
qualified for this opportunity and why:



·        5+ Years of PHP/MySQL experience

·        Subversion

·        Memcache is a nice to have

·        Automated testing experience is a nice to have.





Likes: They like people who have scalable scripting experience.





Length of Assignment:           1yr                  Chance for
extension: No, there is however a chance to go perm if there is an
interest.





Thanks,
Mel
