Careers with CPM

Web Developer

Church Plant Media is expanding our team and we are looking for a web developer to code sites, handle level 2 support issues, and do CMS integration.

Overview

This member of our team is expected to work side by side with other team members to bring a design to coded reality. The typical project will include taking a Photoshop layout and converting it to XHTML/CSS, integrating it into our CMS, and installing any other features/software modules that the partner requests (scripts, forms, rotators, etc). This team member will also work directly with partners to resolve their level 2 support requests. 

Job Type

Position will start off as a full-time contractor, and if qualified, will move to a full-time salaried position within 3 months.

Work Requirements

Developer will be required to have at least one year of experience in the planning, coding, and management of websites. Specific skill and other requirements include:

  • The ability to hand code valid, standards-based XHTML and CSS (no WYSIWYGs or tables).
  • The ability to integrate websites into a CMS.
  • The ability to understand cross-platform/cross-browser challenges, and how to work around them.
  • The desire to learn the ins and outs of our CMS in order to utilize it to its full potential.
  • An understanding of web usability.
  • A strong knowledge of XHTML, CSS, PHP, and API integration.
  • A basic familiarity with JavaScript (preferably jQuery) and AJAX.
  • A basic understanding of Photoshop (design skills not required; but the ability to convert a PSD to XHTML/CSS is required).
  • Familiarity with common coding techniques and patterns.
  • Flexibility in regards to pre-existing coding styles and methods.
  • A strong desire to stay current with evolving coding standards and technologies.
  • Ability to multi-task and self-direct.
  • Must enthusiastically agree with our Statement of Belief.

Location & Communications

  • Must be US-based. Can work remotely, but Oklahoma City, OK, Richmond, VA, and Dallas, TX area residents will be given special consideration.
  • All communications will be done via phone, Basecamp, web conferencing, and IM.

Compensation

  • Base salary, healthcare stipend, profit sharing, and paid vacation.

Bottom Line

  • We are not workaholics, but we all work very hard and very diligently. Sometimes this means we end the work day at a normal time, and other times it means we work late nights in order to finish a project. So if you're looking for a normal 9-5 job where you always hit the door at 5:00, then this probably isn't for you. :)
