Do you believe that software can change the world? How about the opportunity to work on an application that promises to help accelerate a cure for cancer?
Microsoft is sponsoring a project to be built by InterKnowlogy for The Scripps Research Institute. And I am the hiring manager!
We are embarking on Release II of the application. I have decided to include four developers from the community in the development team (working for Interknowlogy virtually). Here’s what we are looking for in a software development engineer.
- Well-rounded skills in software application development.
- One who has been working primarily with C# for at least the past two years, with an additional minimum three years of Microsoft .NET framework application development experience (and preferable some 2.0 and 3.0 experience).
- Familiarity with Object Oriented design methodology.
- A successful candidate will have experience with Windows client application development (.NET WinForms, preferably WPF) and web services.
- Desirable to have experience with SharePoint, preferable Office SharePoint Server 2007, Office Document XML, or other custom Office applications. You should also have experience working within a distributed development team.
Does this sound like you? Tell me why we should consider you for this opportunity by replying to Calling all Developers with a one-page word document telling us what you are most proud of in your career and why you should be selected to work on this project as well as a link to your online presence (blog, home page, myspace profile, etc). You can work from home, as long as you have a reliable internet connection!
We are going to move quickly on this so tell me now why you would be the right person for the team. This is a paid position. And you might even get some publicity for participating! Thanks for considering being a part of this important project!
