SNAPPS is (gulp)...HIRING

Category None

It took some time to come to this decision...my last hire was over 4 1/2 years ago!  But the company has enjoyed a sustained period of significant growth and interest in our high-end services, so it's time to supplement the team with new talent.  I'm looking (first) for a developer who can come on board and be immediately productive with Lotus software, with a variety of web and Lotus-centric skills covering:
  • LotusScript
  • Java (Eclipse focus and experience a plus)
  • JavaScript, XML, JSON
  • UI design excellent skills
  • Domino, Sametime, Quickr, and Connections (next year) skills
  • Application architecture and design
  • Analytical skills including requirements gathering and project management
  • Excellent writing skills

There are a few more attributes of the perfect candidate that would certainly be in your favor:
  • Excellent customer relationship skills
  • Demonstrable speed and quality orientation
  • History including business development
  • Training/instruction experience
  • Current involvement in the Lotus community
  • Speaking skills a plus

The person I hire first will likely have intermediate or better (3+ years experience) technical skills, in order to immediately support our project backlog and jumpstart new business as it becomes available.  You will become a member of one of the "elite' teams (all with 15 years' experience) in the Lotus community and after a short period enjoy full benefits.  

To give you an idea of what it's like to work here, the longest tenure is 7.5 years (Viktor), two of my employees were once my instructors, and Melissa, my Vice President, works from home three days a week.  It's a family atmosphere with great bonds and dedication among the team.  We travel internationally, present at conferences and user groups, and have large global companies as our clients.  We do not bill hourly (I have a particular disdain for the concept!), but work towards the greatest value possible for our clients.  I travel 100+ days per year so immediate integration into the team at the office is critical.

If this describes you - and you are willing to join a demanding and focused team - apply (see The Rules).  We're collecting resumes in September, and will schedule phone/in person interviews when we have returned from the upcoming conference season.

The Rules
  1. If you know me (as in, we have lunch, see each other often, are friends, etc...) send me your resume directly - "rnovak at snapps dot com".  
  2. If you don't know me (as in, maybe you've seen me speak or vice-versa, or we met at Lotusphere 11 years ago, or you just read my blog, etc), but feel you're qualified given the above, send it to "working at snapps dot com".  It will be reviewed by my team and then me!
  3. If you don't know me given the definition above, and you sent it to me directly, it'll be "recycled".

That's it -  will be posting the position of Software Project Specialist on the corporate site soon.  Just giving the blog readers a little heads up.  This may not be the only new hire this year...
