Outstanding Web Software Developer, PHP/XML/XSL, Cardiff

Box UK, a multi-award winning Internet Development company, is looking for another extraordinary developer for our expanding Cardiff team.  Joining a team of 40 outstanding individuals, your knowledge and excitement for all web technologies (including PHP, XML, XHTML, CSS and much more) will help our international, brand-name clients achieve even more success and accolades.

We are looking for you if:

  • You love writing code.
  • The web excites you -- you probably know more than any of your friends about AJAX, SVG, the Semantic Web and Web 2.0.
  • You can knowledgably discuss all areas of web development, including Usability, Accessibility, Information Architecture and Standards.
  • Small inconsistencies irritate you -- maybe 3 buttons that aren’t perfectly aligned, or a box that doesn’t look quite right when viewed with Firefox on a Mac.
  • You’ve made your own web pages, or blog, or put something online through the sheer pleasure of it.
  • You make great things happen, and love to achieve.
  • You are fascinated with the bigger aspects of development; from frameworks to methodologies, patterns to interface usability.
  • You are also fascinated with the details -- the positioning of a tab, the wording of a label, the beauty of a perfectly indented method.
  • You ideally have some experience in: XHTML, CSS (including positioning), XSLT, XML, Javascript, PHP, SQL -- although if you can prove to us how good you are, we don’t care which technologies you already know.
  • You are a driven, proactive, pragmatic problem solver.
  • You’re not afraid to innovate and try solutions that have never been tried.
  • You also know when to use the tried and tested approach.
  • Even though you are already smart, you constantly crave more knowledge.  For you, life is about learning something -- and achieving something -- every day.

You are looking for us if:

  • You want to work with incredible people, in a place where you truly respect -- and are respected by -- your peers.
  • You want to work in a true learning environment.  Where new books arrive every week, a quiet library is available, people regularly brainstorm ideas, and training of all types is encouraged.
  • You would like the recognition you deserve -- both monetary and personally.
  • You want to work in a company where freedom and trust allow you to explore possibilities.  Our most recent (4th) product was borne from the exploratory development of a new team member.
  • You want to work on something important, not just for another small company.
