The Opportunity:

Our Client is looking to expand its development team with the addition of a talented, motivated software engineer. Successful candidates must be able write sustainable and maintainable code quickly and accurately. You must have a passion for writing modular software

systems capable of handling large loads and high-traffic patterns. You will be asked to contribute multiple innovative solutions to difficult problems. Candidates should have a thirst for knowledge and be willing to constantly push the boundaries of our coding methods,

our coding styles, and our coding results.

Shortened to:

We are looking for a very good Ruby on Rails developer. Must have good overall knowledge of everything as well as the motivation required to work consistently.

Responsibilities:

  •   Write scalable, maintainable code, unit, functional, and acceptance

tests

Acceptance tests? Isn’t this something where you demonstrate to the user the application and record their reactions? I didn’t know you could write those.

  •   Create semi-fleshed out CSS and template files

Understandable, but usually I would get a proper designer to do this rather than a programmer.

  •   Contribute to system design and architecture decisions

Shorter: Come up with superb ideas.

  •   Assist in QA and firefighting efforts as necessary

This is what caught my eye and got me to reply in the first place: “firefighting efforts”. Do things just have a habit of spontaneously igniting there?

Qualifications:

  •   Thorough understanding of object-oriented methodology

Which you’ll get with Ruby on Rails developers

  •   Thorough understanding of MVC (Model-View-Controller) architectures

Which you’ll get with Ruby on Rails developers

  •   Experience with coding database-backed web applications

Which you’ll get with Ruby on Rails developers

  •   Expert knowledge in either mod_perl or Ruby on Rails

Which you’ll get with Ruby on Rails developers… wait, what? mod_perl? What the hell has that got to do with RoR?

It’s an alright written advertisement (and nothing has beaten that rockstar one, yet!), but it needs… something. Like, more information on the client, the location and the pay rate.
