We have a vacancy for a junior web developer to join our small team of developers based in Bristol.

Someone Like You?
Do you aspire to be an elite website ninja? Yes? Then you are probably destined to be part of the Mad Capsule Media Team. You should also be the following ....

1. Logically minded
2. An eye for detail
3. Able and ready to solve problems on your own
4. Happy to speak to customers over the phone, on email and in person in a first line support manner.
5. Your interest level in the internet rates high/unhealthy
6. A working knowledge of common web technologies such as Apache, PHP, MySQL, Ajax, XML, FTP, and so forth
7. Previous experience writing PHP. Hobby projects are enough proof for us

A Career Stepping Stone
Wow, the web development world really is competitive these days, right? Gaining access to it can be tricky, but not for a website ninja such as yourself. If you fit the profile above, give us a call - maybe we need you more than you need us.

What Does An Junior Website Ninja Do?
Code PHP, write SQL, own a problem(in both senses of the word own), search Google, learn to code better PHP, learn to write better SQL, search Google a little less, assist clients in a first line support role.

If you can do any of the following, we might employ you and pretend we know what they mean:

• Administration of Linux without a GUI. Or any LAMP experience in general. Use of common Linux editors are always handy:VI, VIM, PICO etc.
• Able to produce valid clean HTML, understanding that to make valid HTML does not require 30 different variant CSS files, or the most bizarre z-index minus percent floating inline margins known to man (although...)
• Ajax, we like the Ajax, also we've got a sneaky love for Python
• Experience of: Magento, Joomla, Drupal, Wordpress , or the next big thing (no it's not Googlewave)
• CakePHP, Zend, Symphony, any other PHP framework

Whilst we appreciate ingenuity, we don't want people claiming they can do things they can't; don't pretend, we're not as stupid as we may seem. Claiming you can turn HTML into beer will just be disappointing for all. Equally claiming you know more than you do, wont help anybody either. At the end of the day, we're after somebody full of tenacity, who's a little bit addicted to the internet, specifically web development.
If you think web development sounds cool, because you once saw a web developer driving one of those white audi A3s and a pair of cool thick rimmed glasses, then please don't bother to apply.

On the other hand, if you like the idea of getting greasy with some PHP, and perhaps bake a cake then please apply ! So....
