PHP & front-end developer interns needed at Masuga Design

PHP & Front-End Developer Interns

What We Need

Masuga Design needs PHP and front-end developer interns to join us in doing excellent work from our office in downtown Grand Rapids, MI.

A PHP developer will develop primarily with ExpressionEngine (PHP-based CMS) for client work, and in Laravel (PHP framework) for internal projects.

A front-end developer will work with HTML and CSS (using SCSS and Grunt) and will get familiar with front-end frameworks like Foundation.

You’ll work closely with the team to meet client requirements and constantly improve our internal projects and procedures.

Requirements for PHP Development

  • Knowledge of PHP
  • Knowledge of Javascript
  • Experience working with MySQL databases
  • Understanding of HTML/CSS

Requirements for Front End Development

  • Knowledge and solid understanding of HTML/CSS
  • Familiarity with Javascript

Nice to Haves (but not required)

  • Experience using version control (we use Git)
  • Familiarity with Grunt or similar task runners

About You

For an intern, accountability, a positive attitude, and attention to detail are far more important than proficiency with code!

  • You pay meticulous attention to detail in every facet of what you do.
  • You have no problem recording time and being accountable.
  • You are motivated and resourceful. Don’t know how to do something? Admit it. Research it. Learn it. Implement it. Share it. Rinse and repeat!
  • You’re smart…but you know you don’t know it all. You have the ability and desire to learn.
  • You’re a team player. Cowboy coding doesn’t fly here, pardner.

If you're the right fit for our team, we will teach you what you need to know to help you succeed in the position. We're less interested in your resume than we are in your desire to do great work and the skills you can bring to the table.

Any intern positions could certainly lead to full-time employment after graduation (and we have great benefits).
