Must have a good sense of humor and enjoy working in a fast paced, tightly knit team environment

The Skills & Experience

.Net, ASP, Microsoft SQL and Adobe Flash are the core technologies used on the web client. Youll need to be able to demonstrate ninja skills in these.

Our APIs are rich and will spew JSON & XML all day long. Youll need to be able to eat those with your eyes closed.

Understanding of and familiarity with the core components of the Web 2.0 world is important. Show us your AJAX.

Experience of configuring Windows Server/IIS/MSFT SQL Server in a web environment.

Strong problem solving skills were great at creating tough problems

Youve likely been cutting code for a good few years and have got the t-shirt from at least one other startup. We like our code fast and tight, not straight out of CS School.

This role does require good visual design skills (eg Flash), but very strong web infrastructure experience is equally important (SQL, ASP.Net). You need to know what an N-Tier application design is and where the presentation layer lives!

The Opportunity

Haute Secure is a young, fast paced company. Were building really exciting software that promises to change the way people interact with security technologies and were managing to have a lot of fun doing it. This role presents a unique opportunity to grow personally and professionally with the company and to learn new exciting skills and technologies from some security and technology industry veterans. http://hautesecure.com/about.aspx
