Job Opening: Web Designer

pingVision has an immediate opening for a web designer for Drupal-powered websites. Terms are contract-to-hire, starting part-time and mostly virtual. Full-time position will be at our studios, so we're looking for people living in the Boulder area.

This position has been filled. Please check our job listings for other opportunities.

Responsibilities

  • Web design for sites powered by Drupal and CivicSpace (and possibly other platforms).
  • CSS styling.
  • Light php coding within theme templates.
  • Create user interface designs from wireframe layouts.
  • Logo design.
  • Client contact throughout design process.

Knowledge, Skills, Experience

  • Experience with templating and creating "skins" for dynamic websites is required. (Please note that this is not Dreamweaver or other wysiwyg web design program work. Hands-on templating expertise and experience is required -- with Drupal preferred; experience theming for WordPress, MoveableType, Blogger or other "web 2.0" platforms are possible alternatives.)
  • Expert knowledge of CSS, xhtml, web standards, as well as the non-standard hacks required for Internet Explorer is required.
  • Knowledge of AJAX, Javascript, Java, PHP, MySQL, *nix, Apache, xml and/or Flash is a definite plus, but not required.

  • Strong written communication skills to write branding guidelines, as well as communicate with clients and vendors.
  • Client relations skills for contact by phone, email and IM.
  • Self-motivated and able to work independently, but also good at collaboration, taking direction and working with others.
  • Proficency in the English language. (Multilingual is a plus!)

We're looking for creative and innovative designers. If you are not so strong in one or more of these areas, let us know. We are hiring team players, and your strengths may complement our needs.
