PHP Guru

Do you mock "programmers" that miss any of the questions on the Zend PHP5 Certification - Self Test? Yeah...so do we. Maybe we can mock them together.

We're looking for someone that knows how to write clean and efficient PHP5 object oriented code at the enterprise level. Here is a list of our "absolutely-must-have" requirements:

• PHP 5 - object oriented experience
• SQL knowledge: basic and advanced (i.e. stored procedures, views, triggers, etc)
• HTML (can code by hand or in sleep)
• Subversion or other version control systems
• Some HTTP experience (you should know the difference between GET versus POST, what a 404 is versus a 200, 301 redirect, etc)
• Regular expressions (at least able to understand them even if they give you horrible, horrible nightmares)

Additionally, it would also be nice if you are familiar with any or all of the following:

• Model-View-Controller (MVC) experience (via frameworks such as Zend, Kohana, Cake, or Symfony for example)
• Knowledge of design patterns
• Apache and mod_rewrite experience
• System administration skills
• AJAX by way of YUI or any other popular libraries
• Javascript and CSS knowledge
• Experience with at least one other language (C, Perl, Java, Python, Ruby)
• Using and writing APIs

We're really only looking for people that live in or near Phoenix, Arizona right now (unless you are a PHP genius of epic proportions). So if you want to work somewhere you'll have tons of fun, constantly learn new things and always be pushing the limits of web-based applications, then join us!

To apply, send the following to jobs at synapsestudios dot com:

• Your resume
• Some samples showing off what you can do
• Include the job title in the subject line of the email
