Take a look at these two images:

Is anyone else seeing any vague similarities? Or is it just me? No, you’re right - it’s just me… (more…)

I haven’t been able to get a lot of work done in these last few days, mostly because I’ve been in a number of meetings organising quite a bit of work that SM2 will be involved with over the next 12 months. With so much work and my our inbox(s) slowly overflowing, we are in need of some experienced PHP Developers to help us deliver products to the ever increasing demand for Joomla-based components.

SM2 are not officially advertising these positions just yet, but we would like:

• A Client-side (CSS/XHTML/JavaScript) Developer
• A Lead Developer / Technical Manager
• 2 or 3 PHP/MySQL Developers - with MVC experience

Ideally, we are looking for people with the following:

• Ideally we are looking for people with Sugar CRM experience
• Joomla! customisation experience
• Technical lead/management experience
• Brisbane based
• Contract position 6-12 months possibly
• Skills from junior to senior level development

If you are or know of someone who fits loosely into this profile, we’d love to hear from you! It’s worth noting also that I was originally contracted for 3 months and went full-time within the first week and a half. ;-)
SM2 is a fun-filled (and perhaps slightly dysfunctional :P) family working on some pretty interesting projects and having a lot of fun in the process. So, drop us a line here or visit SM2’s Joomla! website.

You know when you meet someone for the first time and they always ask that stock-standard question “So, what do you do with yourself?“. My usual response to that question is “I’m a web-developer“. But, it’s the next statement that I love the most: “Oh, REALLY???, My son/daughter/nephew/niece/friend is into computers!” - which is also around the time that people stop asking me questions, ’cause they have no idea what to ask next.
