They will also need to be comfortable with working on a team, while also being capable of solving problems and getting work done with less guidance at times.

• Excellent knowledge of HTML5, CSS, Javascript
• An understanding of design
• Good communication skills and work ethic

They will be expected to work with analytics and SEO tools to determine the effectiveness of new designs and content in retaining site visitors as well as work with performance and behavioral testing tools. Covers Direct is a small eCommerce company (16 employees) that has been around for almost 16 years and is an established leader in the cover market both nationally and internationally. Our growing development team is made up of 2 in-house developers and 2 part-time contractors with the Greenville, SC based web development shop, OrangeCoat. Since our team is mostly back end oriented, this new addition to the team will have the opportunity to grow into having a unique and important role in the company. The new developer will be expected to report to Covers Direct’s office in Chesnee, SC (25 minutes north of Spartanburg, SC) 9 AM to 5 PM Monday thru Friday. Benefits include health insurance, a casual work environment, free lunch on Fridays, flexible vacation plans and very little, if any, overtime expected beyond the 40-hour work week.

Topics and speakers will include: Topic #1 - From App Developer to Open Source Developer Speaker: Chris Mancini, Software Engineer, Basho Technologies Summary: In the last few years, companies like Twitter, Facebook and Google have released software libraries and frameworks that they use internally to the open source community; we have witnessed Oracle buying up open source projects like MySQL; and though pigs still don't fly, Microsoft released .NET with open source licensing and partnered with RedHat to offer RHEL on Azure. The future of software is open source, which means that the best jobs will be on open source projects. What does that mean? How is being an app developer different from being an open source software developer? How do you make the transition to being paid to work on open source projects? These are all questions I look to answer in this presentation and open discussion on what makes a great OSS developer.
