Mentor Graphics (where I work) is looking for a top-notch CF/Flex/Java architect/developer to join our team. There are five of us at the moment, and we need another one. This is an on-site position in Wilsonville, OR (just south of Portland), and relocation assistance is available.
The "official" qualifications are pretty typical, and largely waive-able for the right candidate. So here are the "real" ones:
- know what ColdSpring (or Spring) is and understand why you'd use it
- be able to compare and contrast, at least at a high level, a few Front Controller frameworks
- articulate a considered opinion on JS vs. Flash for RIAs in different scenarios
- know your way around Java SE and the Servlet API (more of JEE a plus)
- explain why you'd use SOAP in a pure-CFML application that a single team owns from top to bottom
- use CFEclipse because of Eclipse, not the reverse
Our work environment is casual. We share a single "office" and spend a lot of time sitting at each other's desks working together and we have a dedicated "war room" for more in-depth discussion and planning (and a Wii for unwinding). If you tuck your shirt in, you're probably overdressed.
Compensation is quite good, both the raw salary and the myriad benefits. Mentor is a large, stable company, but without the Dilbert-esque nature. The org chart is a meritocracy, pragmatism reigns supreme, and most of of the decisions (technical, architectural, etc.) are driven from the bottom up, not top down.
If this sounds like a place you want to work, shoot me a resume at bboisvert@gmail.com and I'll forward it to Ron. The hiring process is simple: resume, phone screen, on-site interview.
