Do you love coding MediaWiki extensions in PHP and administering wikis?
Looking for a new challenge?
My team at Vistaprint is seeking an accomplished LAMP developer with experience in MediaWiki development and configuration. Come share your talents at a successful company where our global wikis are respected, critical resources. The challenges of a large, corporate wiki are quite different from those of public Internet sites (and quite interesting too): solving business problems, integrating with complex systems, making your co-workers more efficient through automation, measuring the success of solutions, etc.
The position is located in Lexington, Massachusetts (near Boston).
Prerequisites:
- Truly outstanding PHP and JavaScript skills
- Thorough understanding of MediaWiki template-writing and parser functions
- Skilled in both Linux and Windows environments (commands like "paste filelist1 filelist2 | sed 's/^/mv /' | bash" should be simple for you)
- Excellent communication skills, both written and oral
Other helpful, optional skills:
- WordPress programming (plugins)
- Any technical writing experience
- Any teaching/training experience (developing or delivering training to technical audiences)
