Description

Who we are
Different Projects are a creative digital production company making websites, social apps, mobile apps, games and more. We happily exist somewhere in the void between agency and startup. We collaborate with leading agencies and brands like Orange, Channel 4 and ITV on projects that make the web a better place to interact, learn or just have a good time. We also make our own digital products where it’s all about making stuff that matters.

Who we’re looking for
We need a Creative Developer. Someone who feels comfortable on both the front- and the back-end. Someone who loves learning new stuff, who\’s entrepreneurial, a technical leader, a true creative problem solver, not afraid to talk to clients and probably has a few of their own side projects going on. You\’ll have a couple mobile or web apps under your belt. You enjoy bridging the gap between creative and technology, working on product development/service design together with UX designers, leading the dev team and helping to recruit new team members to build our technical capacity to even more awesome levels. You\’re passionate about creating new digital products or services people will actually want to use – whether for clients or for ourselves – and will be directly responsible for the quality and success of our technical output.

Skills & Experience
Essential (all of the above plus):
- HTML/CSS/Javascript master with a healthy interest in HTML5
- Mobile app experience and interest – iOS and/or Android (native or HTML5)
- Experience with one or more server-side languages, especially PHP, Python or Ruby
- Love your version control (Git preferably)
- Likes getting hands dirty with 3rd party APIs
- Enjoys prototyping and iterating stuff
- 2-5 years experience in an agency, digital production environment or startup producing projects on deadline
