Wanted: Senior Developer (Birmingham), Senior Designer (London)
Okay, we’re recruiting once more. We’re looking to expand our teams in Birmingham and in London.
Senior Web Developer (Birmingham)
We’re looking for another credible developer to join our team. Made is a LAMP based operation, so we’re looking for someone with OOP PHP5 skills, preferably experience with a framework like Zend, Symfony or Sapphire. You’ll be interested in standards and HTML5 of course, but we’re looking for an architect, not a WordPress hacker (some incidental WordPress hacking is fine). We want someone who is able to talk credibly about their craft, so as well as being a good developer, you’ll be able to talk convincingly about cloud-hosting, scalability, accessibility, penetration testing, compliance and data protection. All areas you’ll get plenty of experience with at Made.
We’ll consider candidates with two years plus experience. Good computer science degree preferred. Competitive salary and benefits based upon experience level. Opportunity to work on high-profile projects, where your work will be used by millions not thousands. Good team spirit. Excellent coffee. Monthly massage. Beer.
Senior Digital Designer (London)
We’re looking for a senior digital designer to work from our London office (Angel, Islington). A grid-orientated typographer, yes, but we’re looking for more than that: Someone with strong conceptual and visualisation skills, someone comfortable in pitch scenarios. Someone who can hack out a design in Photoshop from nowhere, fast. Also desirable:
- Understanding of User Experience and user-centred interaction design (wireframing, usability etc.)
- Understanding of the brand process
- Some HTML, animation or Flash skills
- Ability to rationalise and justify your design decisions
- Ability to talk about ‘engagement’ and ‘social influence’ with enthusiasm whilst maintaining a straight face
At least two year’s work experience in an agency required. We’ll supply a steady stream of interesting clients and briefs. We’re working out the coffee. No massage in London, sorry.
To Apply…
Both roles competitive with experience and location. Email a CV and URLs to work@mademedia.co.uk. Developers should consider sending code samples, Designers a PDF portfolio or similar. Sorry, no agencies. Really.
