Upcoming Job Opening: Web Systems Programmer

*Web Systems Programmer - Crawlability Inc.*

* PHP (OOD)
* mySQL (query optimization)
* JavaScript/Ajax (advanced user interface design)
* HTML. CSS & XHTML (tableless designs, validated HTML standards)
* vBulletin (plugin development)

The position will be _part-time_ to begin, with the successful candidate working remotely.

The primary focus will be on developing, testing, and deploying updates or adding new systems to Crawlability’s private “Biz Admin Systems”.

These systems relate to all of our operational activities including order fulfillment, data processing, marketing communications, and our Global Partners content translation systems, etc.

Every system developed will be a part of a multi-system architecture, in which all systems are tied together to fulfill our data collection, processing and related business objectives.

The successful candidate will report directly to our Senior Software Developer, in addition to Project Managers on a per project basis.

*The candidate must be willing to:*
* Follow the programming guidelines set forth by the Senior Software Developer
* Learn, and be proactive about tracking down information needed to solve “all” problems experienced
* Write extremely organized, and well commented code, and be prepared to communicate with the documentation team to facilitate user documentation, etc.

* Communicate with the team in a professional manner, providing as much detail as possible in all information exchanges
* Be dedicated, diligent, and FAST. The candidate will need to be able to stay on top of multiple concurrent projects.
* Follow our design philosophies which include the “KIS” (Keep it Simple) philosophy to avoid overkill in design, iterative programming cycles, and adherence of 100% commitment to “designing for usability” for an average user (not for other developers)
* Be challenged, and to think “way” outside the box on several occasions.
* Let the love of programming bring out coding masterpieces!
* Not play the WII, during working hours. ;)
A candidate possessing the necessary skills and qualities will get to join our development team, doing cool stuff like writing web crawlers, automation bots, advanced number crunching with graphics, and next generation Ajax interfaces, as well as some more mundane tasks when the need arises.

Starting date is ASAP.

vBulletin 3.7 First Look!

vBulletin 3.7 - First Look

It’s that time again! Today, the vBulletin development team is proud to unveil for the first time the forthcoming vBulletin version: 3.7.0.

vBulletin 3.7.0 contains a plethora of new features, many of which have been long requested by users and customers, while other new features will come as a surprise to everyone. 3.7.0 is slated to be the final major release of the vBulletin 3.x series before all forum development efforts are switched over to vBulletin 4.x, after which 3.x will receive only bug fix releases.

In terms of timescales, the plan is to upgrade vBulletin.com to run on vBulletin 3.7.0 on Monday (November 26th) and to let it run for a few days in order to get some feedback and bug reports before releasing the first public beta.

So, to the important bit: what’s new in vBulletin 3.7?

Answer: Lots. But here, in no particular order, are some highlights…
