Description:
OurChurch.Com... is a leading provider of web hosting, design, marketing, and advertising services to Christian organizations. We are excited to add to our growing team an innovative, experienced software developer who is passionate about seeing Christian organizations connect and communicate more effectively using the Internet.
Linchpin? We’re looking for someone who as Seth Godin describes takes initiative, solves problems, creates value, makes connections, and can see the future. We want someone who will say, “This is where OurChurch.Com should be going!” and not “Just tell me what to do.”
The Work: This person will lead the development of future generations of our NE1 Web Builder, Joomla-based CMS services, the OurChurch.Com website and other projects. This includes writing software in a Linux server environment that utilizes PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Most projects will require leading other staff and/or hiring and managing outside contractors. So, the job requires project management skills including the abilities to write requirements, create and adhere to a schedule, assign and delegate tasks, develop and perform tests, write documentation, and manage people.
Social Media Voice: This person should not only be familiar with social media, but have an active, reputable voice on Twitter, Facebook, and blogs.
Hours: The position is salaried and usually 45 hours per week, though more may be required to meet deadlines. Typical hours will be Monday-Friday 8 AM to 5 PM, though there is quite a bit of flexibility allowed as long as work is getting done. OurChurch.Com supports a family-friendly work schedule accommodating time off for family needs whenever possible.
Location: Individual will work from their home (preferably in the Tampa Bay area though not required) and be available and able to commute for occasional meetings and company activities (5-10 times a year). The person must be able to work from home with minimal interruptions.
