Grouper is Hiring a Backbone/Coffeescript Contractor in NYC

1 pointsby nottombrownabout 11 years ago
Hey HN, We&#x27;re looking for a contractor to work with us to clean up an existing single-page backbone app.<p>The tool in question is an admin-facing task management system. Imagine a collaborative gmail for emails and texts. To prevent conflicts, when an admin opens a message, all other viewers of the message are shown that it is claimed.<p>The tool should be fairly simple, but as it&#x27;s grown, it&#x27;s become unwieldy and hard to debug. We want to add structure and a more extensive test suite.<p>We&#x27;d like to work with an developer who&#x27;s built several production apps with backbone, as well as more opinionated frameworks like marionette, angular or ember. You should also be experienced with javascript testing (jasmine, phantom, etc).<p>This would be a contract for at least a couple months, and we&#x27;d want you to come in to work the rest of our team in our SoHo office.<p>We&#x27;re happy to pay competitive day rates ($700+ per day) depending on experience.<p>Email me at tom@joingrouper.com
