      <description> 
Rails Web Designer, San Francisco, CA.

Do you want to be part of a fast-growing software company, one that is on the move &#8211; but really needs your unique talents?   Not even two years old, New Relic has already reshaped its marketplace and is growing quickly.  The company was started by a group of people who have created successful companies before, and are at it again.  

You will be joining a unique team. People who succeed at New Relic have a sense of urgency, a lot of initiative, a commitment to customer success, an enthusiasm about pushing the edge &#8230; and a sense of humor. We provide interesting work, a great product, new things to learn, and the freedom to make the job work the way only you can do it.  A strong work ethic and a drive to produce results are essential.

New Relic is looking to hire an experienced Designer to join our fun and growing company. We're a small and scrappy start-up, so of course we're looking for someone with top-notch Web Design skills who can also implement those designs in Ruby on Rails, Javascript, and CSS. And we're an agile and distributed organization, so we're looking for someone who has &quot;agile&quot; in their DNA: someone who enjoys iterating to a great solution.

We are passionate - possibly even crazy - about application performance management. Our mission is making web applications run better, making internet users more productive, and making life easier for developers. In our new V2 product, we've emphasized user-centered design to better serve our rapidly growing set of customers. And with our V2 success, we're rocketing forward with a whole slew of additional features, all of which require a Designer's touch.

Our product is simple for our users, but complex behind the scenes, so the right candidate has experience designing, building, and deploying non-trivial web applications. We're looking for someone who is at home in Photoshop, Rails, Javascript, CSS, and can deal with the real life cross-browser issues.

To be considered seriously, you will have:

Designed and deployed commercial RoR applications (please provide urls) 
Strength in Javascript and CSS (again, urls) 
Experience with user-centered interaction design 
Ability to implement web applications in Ruby on Rails.

This position is targeted for our San Francisco office, but could be located in Portland, Oregon for the right person. We offer competitive compensation (including pre-IPO stock options) and big-company benefits (medical, dental, etc), while maintaining the energy, agility and fun atmosphere of a start-up.

New Relic is most decidedly an equal opportunity employer.  We seek applicants of diverse background and hire without regard to race, color, gender, religion, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, disability, age, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by law.

This is an upper-level systems/development job with terrific benefits (company-provided Mac hardware, health/dental, 401k matching) and flexible time/location requirements.

      <description>Who we are...
Codegent is an award-winning digital agency made up of talented, driven web enthusiasts based in South London. We work across a variety of sectors, but if we had to pin it down to specialisms, we do the lion&#8217;s share of our work in Youth, Entertainment and Fashion. We work with clients that include Disney, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, BBC, Save the Children, Skechers Shoes, The Southbank Centre &amp; Swarovski.

We are genuinely excited by the web and the opportunities it offers people. Much of the work we do is innovative and challenging as a result and we actively look for people who can really contribute to this culture. A &#8216;can-do&#8217; attitude and an inquisitive, confident personality are a must for anyone wanting to join our team.

We are proud of the work we do and the difference our work makes to our clients. You can find out a little bit more about us here http://www.codegent.com/about/

We are looking to hire...
A really experienced Senior Developer who has worked in top Agencies for top clients and knows the commitment that requires. You will be fluent in at least 2 of the following development languages; Python, PHP, Coldfusion, ASP .NET, Ruby but ultimately you will be language agnostic as your real skills lie in the concepts and ideas behind the syntax.

You will have a proven record of collaborative working with other developers and be able to lead a team both in the context of a project and the longer-term technical strategy of the Agency. You will be an innovator with a &#8216;can-do&#8217; attitude but won&#8217;t lose sight of the fundamentals of website production.

You will take real Pride (note the capital P) in what you produce and challenge and collaborate with the Creative Team in the Agency when you need to. You will not look at us weirdly when we say &#8216;web development is about marketing&#8217;.

You will be a details person &#8211; cross browser doesn&#8217;t mean Safari 4 and Firefox 3 to you. Web Standards and Accessibility will not be &#8216;out of scope&#8217;.

Most importantly, you will want to work in and contribute heavily to a motivated, committed, fun team striving to produce awesome results for clients who we care about.

You will need...

&#8226; At least 8 years experience in a top Agency working with top brands.
&#8226; Expertise in multiple programming languages.
&#8226; Awareness of Web Standards, Accessibility Standards and cross browser compatibility.
&#8226; A proven record in collaborative working both with other developers and the wider project team.
&#8226; Team leading experience.
&#8226; An innovative, &#8216;can-do&#8217; attitude.
&#8226; Good communication skills &#8211; you should feel confident when in front of clients.
&#8226; Seriously advanced CSS &amp; JavaScript for front end majesty.
&#8226; Real design appreciation. You will challenge and collaborate with our Creative Director and Design Team.
&#8226; Real attention to detail both front and back end.
&#8226; An understanding &amp; ongoing awareness of commercial and marketing goals of projects.
&#8226; Experience in the demands of deadline-driven work.
&#8226; To be able to show examples of technically challenging and beautifully executed work for brands.
&#8226; An understanding of the importance of User Experience &amp; User Interface with examples of where you have implemented this understanding.
&#8226; A real passion for the Web and to be in touch with current technical innovation and advances.
&#8226; A sense of humour.
&#8226; To be able to drive technical strategy &amp; direction for the company going forward.

We will pay...
