Action Script 2 / 3 / Flex *Description* Welcome to Colorado Timberline, home of a diverse array of outerwear and novelty products along with a gamut of decorative services. Colorado Timberline is nestled in the industrial district in Stapleton, Colorado where our domestic warehouse of roughly 3 million units resides. As an entry-level application developer you will initially focus on support of existing applications which are being replaced by senior developers as we speak. As our platform matures to a 2.0 revision end-to-end, new development opportunities will become available and you will have a chance to make your mark. Colorado Timberline uses a hybrid of Windows & Linux technologies, however you will be focused almost entirely on the Linux side of the house. That said, you should be proficient with Linux, ideally Ubuntu or other Debian derivatives. A desktop will be provided for you, but you are free to use a personal laptop if you wish. The senior development staff prefers to run a development stack on personal laptops, so if that works for you, you'll fit right in. We have been using gitosis internally for a couple of months now and will be scrapping the last of the SVN repositories soon. You have to have *some* prior knowledge of version control to qualify for consideration here; if it's not git knowledge, we'll square you away. High-level coding decisions belong to our senior architect who has over 15 years experience in software engineering. We are very open-minded, stubborn folks when it comes to design, meaning, may the best idea win, but we stick to design decisions and try to marginalize slop. We run PHP5 for mostly everything that's custom. Essentially our code is designed to accept & process orders for our merchandise. There are a lot of sub-systems; all-in-all, the system is of moderate size. At one end of the stack there are e-commerce front-ends, and at the other end of the stack are industrial printing devices..; a great place to get introduced to the software engineering industry! *Office Environment* Colorado Timberline isn't a huge company; there's about 60 of us at the Stapleton location. We have a mixed crowd and several departments, which is enough to be a small community of hard working folks. Attire is casual, sometimes professional. Hours are semi-flexible, but we like to have a good amount of overlap each day so we can all stay on track. *Salary & Benefits* This is an entry-level position, the salary is $35,000 initially, then $40,000 after 90 working days. We have a competitive health package and 401k option which will also become available after 90 days. *Start Date* * *Immediately
