We've got a fun codebase, switching between, Ruby/Rails, Clojure/Java, and Backbone.js. You'll be on a small team (it'll just be you and me) and be able to make a big impact on not just the code base now, but the future direction of our company from an engineering perspective.

We're not so concerned with your background in these specific technologies as we are in your ability to pick them up in the future.

If you're interested, email me at: andrew@vokle.com

EA2D is hiring! We're a new, autonomous studio within EA building cross-platform social games for gamers. We've just launched our first game, Dragon Age Legends:

http://apps.facebook.com/dragonagelegends/

We need help building:

* New features for Dragon Age Legends (big ones: real-time, mobile, etc.)

* New games for big-name IP (we have access to the full EA library)

* An epic social gaming platform (for both internal and external teams)

We're small (30 people) and scrappy. And we're growing fast: 0-200 servers in the past 6 months. Tech stack is primarily AS3/Java backed by MongoDB, but we also use Python, JavaScript, and Ruby. We have a highly automated infrastructure running on AWS (EC2 w/ELBs and ASGs, EMR, SQS, etc., plus more than a few super-secret/unreleased Amazon features). Buzzword potpourri includes Chef, node.js, Google App Engine, Hive, Graphite, Tomcat, GitHub, Pingdom, Loggly, PagerDuty, and continuous deployment. We need platform, game, systems, and mobile engineers. We need data people and people to run day-to-day operations. We need producers, marketing, and designers. Some of our job listings are posted here: http://www.ea2d.com/jobs/, but we have positions we haven't even finished writing descriptions for.

Tampa, FL: Web Developer, Embedded/Linux Programmer

We make custom and commercial hardware solutions for industry. We're primarily working on cellular wireless products.

Web Developer:

A big part of our primary product involves a monitoring/remote-control portal. We're wanting to invest more in it. At the start, you'll be responsible for maintaining and updating what we have now. Later, you will be involved in overhauling it. You'll have lots of input over the technologies you use to build it. You want to try MongoDB & NodeJS? Awesome. Want to go with PHP & MySQL? Also fine. You'll be involved in both back and front end development.

Embedded/Linux Programmer:

We use Busybox and Linux for most of our projects, others are bare-metal. Our projects mostly require userspace utilities and shell scripts. We sometimes also have driver work.

The team:

Our team is very enthusiastic but not overbearing. We all have a very broad skill set and love learning new things. The environment is low-pressure but driven to succeed. We're looking forward to growing our team.
