Hi,

I am in search of a freelance engineer that is looking for a gig that would
turn into a full time position if things are working out well for both
parties.  The time commitment would start at 24-32 hours/week and my
desired time frame to ramp up to a full-time position is roughly two
months.  Below is a description of the role.

attribution analytics, with a proven track record of maintaining existing

Responsibilities:
    *   Maintain the Trigger Media proprietary content management system
and related public facing web site
    *   Develop enhancements to the existing systems
    *   Launch additional CMS and site footprints for similarly aligned new
businesses

    *   Proven experience with the following technologies:

        *   Capistrano
        *   Shell Scripting
        *   Ubuntu Server
    *   The ideal candidate has experience writing web applications
leveraging the Kohana framework
    *   Experience with the following AWS services: EC2, RDS, S3,
Cloudfront, and IAM
    *   Familiarity with JIRA or similar issue tracking systems

Interested?  If so, please send your resume along with a brief cover letter
