  4. Be a “web native” with an online orientation and focus.
  5. Ability to work collaboratively in knowledge-driven work-teams.
  6. Would own the tools to work remotely including a computer, internet access, Skype (for phone and video conferencing), MS Office, etc
  7. Would be provided with tasks and deliverables from Toronto on an ongoing basis.
  8. Would be self-driven and internally motivated to accomplish goals and tasks on a timely basis and on schedule.

 

The ideal candidate would have skills and experience in many or most of the following web development competencies:

  • Expert knowledge of HTML5, CSS3 & Javascript for front-end development.
  • 3+ years in back-end PHP development
  • Relational database schema design and ability to write and tune SQL queries (MySQL & MS SQL Server)

Experience in online marketing using Adwords (SEM), SEO, Google Local, Social Marketing, Analytics, Bing, and other related online tools and techniques would be a huge plus.

We expect to employ additional resources in India over the next couple of years, both in web development and online marketing.

This is a full-time engagement, and we expect to have an open-ended ongoing need for these skills and services. Work schedules would range from 40 to 50 hours a week.

Given the time-zone differences, we would need to establish some overlapping time-frames during which we can be available for collaborative working.

Compensation will range from $10 to $20 per hour, depending upon the skills and experience of the candidates.

You will be paid/compensated twice a month in C$ using a wire transfer directly to your bank account, based on the timesheets submitted by you and approved by Toronto. The funds would thus be deposited to your bank account within 48 hours of your emailing us your timesheets. We work in an honour system where each employee is expected to accurately and reliably account for their hours worked.

The selected candidate/s would be expected to be available to travel to Toronto, Canada for periods of up to 6 months during which time they will receive their regular compensation in India, in addition to being paid travel costs to Canada, and living expenses while in Toronto.

We will review the resumes and schedule phone discussions and interviews from Toronto.

I will be visiting Mumbai & Pune on April 16, departing on April 30. I will be scheduling meetings with selected candidates.

 

 

Job Perks

Compensation adjustments would be based on annual reviews. We also offer bonuses and one-off rewards on an ad-hoc basis depending on accomplishments above-and-beyond agreed-upon goals and expectations. For example one of our staff was offered a trip to Las Vegas for the CES, accompanied by his spouse. Training and other career-enhancing experiences like attending professional conferences and workshop-training are some of the opportunities available to high-achievers.
