September 27, 2007 Wanted: Freelance XHTML/CSS Developer

Posted on Craigslist Boston: 2007-09-27, 10:46PM EDT
I’m a freelance web developer and consultant who partners with designers and agencies (as well as direct client engagements) on projects ranging from backend, data-driven application development to production work based on Photoshop comps. My clients turn to me because I’m fast, detail-oriented and think through the ins and outs of their projects and designs.
I’m reaching a point where more work is coming my way than I can take on. I’m not looking to fill a position here, but for someone who’s got some free time and is looking for opportunities to shine in quick turnaround projects, expand their skillset, and make some extra cash. If you’re looking for some after-hours work or are a freelancer with some gaps to fill, get in touch.
A few requirements (and pluses):
* You’re fast, a fast learner, know your way around Photoshop and CSS, and are savvy enough to dev on a local server and sync your changes with a staging site.
* You not only “get” web standards, but value them, and look for opportunities to deliver optimized, maintainable, accessible and search-friendly markup.
* You can tell me who the key players are in the web standards/CSS field, and why they’re important.
* You can show me that you take pride in your work, through a portfolio or site with your name on it.
* I’ll be impressed by the markup I see there.
+ Experience with jQuery.
+ Experience with ExpressionEngine.
+ Knowledge of PHP/MySQL or .NET/SQL Server.
How we’ll work together:
I’ll split my rate with you proportionate to the work I delegate you on a given project. I bill clients hourly and on flat project fees, so it varies from job to job.
I have high standards for work that goes out the door and how I work with my clients. I’m looking for someone willing to follow my lead, and would like to be in a position where I can start a project, doing initial guides and slices in Photoshop and initial page templates, and then hand those off to build out. Integrity is of paramount importance. If that sounds good to you, let’s talk about working together.
