Want to work where you can really make a difference? A position at UTS is one of influence, recognition, reward and work-life balance.
The Institute for Sustainable Futures (ISF) at UTS is a leader in applied sustainability research. Over the last 13 years ISF has worked with numerous government, industry and community organisations, in Australia and internationally, to incorporate sustainability into their processes and practices through high quality interdisciplinary research.

Rails, Git, BackboneJS/jQuery, Rspec/Capybara/Cucumber, Heroku, Ubuntu/Passenger/Nginx, JenkinsCI, whatever you want (except Haskell) :-p
You'll have an initial six to nine month negotiated contract, with a view to making you a permanent employee once we establish we're right for each other. You'll be enhancing & maintaining a range of existing projects, including our internal custom built Project Management System (PIMMS), our energy efficiency game website: Climate Clubs, and our waste management tool for SMEs: WasteNot (built for us by :mocra). You'll also help us quickly knock up proof of concept sites for the many community education & engagement ideas we have in the icebox (and nurture some of them into blossoming gardens, of course; cheers @cmaitchison ;-).
I want to try and make this one reasonably informal. Send me your Github username, some projects you've worked on, & maybe a CV, if you've got one handy. I'll be in touch and we'll setup a meeting in which we chat about your skills, what you're after, & maybe we'll pair for a bit.
