SEEKING WORK
Remote or New Hampshire/Boston
I'm a web developer with equal experience on the backend with Rails and the frontend with HTML/CSS/jQuery. I have been central in the development, deployment, and maintenance of 3 production websites and 1 production web app.  Here is a little background on a couple of my previous projects:
At one company, I inherited the company’s existing intranet “project management” Rails web app (<a href="http://metro-tek.org" >http://metro-tek.org</a>). I added major functionality including timesheets for payroll (covered by unit tests), automated email reporting, model and form validation, and PDF rendering. I fixed bugs and set up automated error notifications, backups, and deployment. I also wireframed, programmed and deployed a new corporate website (<a href="http://metroelectrical.com" >http://metroelectrical.com</a>) written in Rails. I developed an internal CMS platform to update the website, and integrated CopyCopter for production copy editing.
For my freelance website (<a href="http://soliddesigngroup.net" >http://soliddesigngroup.net</a>), I developed a custom blog platform and CMS for internal use. I developed the information hierarchy and wireframed the website. I translated the website from a PSD layout file into production code, including social media integration, server and client-side form validation, and dynamic front end programming. I created custom jQuery plugins, and set up error notification, automatic backups, and automated deployment.
Here is a sampling of the "best practices" software I roll in my Rails stack:
  * web server - Nginx + Passenger
  * version control - Git + Github
  * automated deploys - Capistrano
  * error notification - Hoptoad
  * automated backup - Backup
  * cron jobs - Whenever
  * HTML/CSS templating - Haml/Sass/Compass
  * Production copy editing - Copycopter

I can provide further code samples upon request.
This is by no means the limit of my abilities or experience, but a small sampling. Please contact me at the email address in my profile for a copy of my resume, and references upon request. I look forward to hearing from you and answering any questions you may have for me!
