NacreData L.L.C. is seeking entry or intermediate-level freelance PHP developers to work with. Ability to be productive and live up to commitments is more important than the exact number of hours available.
Please submit examples of (or links to) your work, description of your skills and your hourly rate info@NacreData.com. Chosen developers will be provided with sftp access to development servers and project tasks to complete.
The code you write needs to be clean and simple enough for others to understand. Some use of open source frameworks and libraries can be helpful, but requiring Zend Framework and Smarty when all we need is a login screen is not our approach.
