Simple.Honest.Work/Chicago, IL (Portland, Oregon)The Job
We are looking for an experienced lead developer based in Chicago, Illinois or Portland, Oregon. The right candidate is a self starter with a proven background in modern frameworks (Django, Rails, and the like), fluency in jQuery and a solid grasp on various APIs. Applicants with a knowledge of Cocoa and Cocoa touch frameworks and familiarity with the Xcode development environment will be at an advantage. Creativity, intelligence and an interest in making the world a better place will serve you well. This is a great opportunity to be instantly a part of the international web design community.

The Place
Simple.Honest.Work takes a unique approach to user experience by combining design, development and information architecture into one practice. The team is small (4 people), driven and interdisciplinary. We work with the largest global brands in the world, from major publishing companies to non-profits, and other folks making news. The projects we work on are viewed by millions of people. In the last year, our work has been featured on TechCrunch, Fast Company, Gizmodo, Engadget, Cool Hunting, The Atlantic, The Chicago Tribune, The New York Times, among others. We like to tell a story with our projects, work with the most modern tools and avoid the cliche. We believe in simple, honest work.

The Perks
- Creative, collaborative work environment. See for yourself: http://vimeo.com/19018244
- Full access to a fridge stocked with Izze sodas, snacks and some weird leftovers that we're afraid to touch.
- Casual dress (within reason)
- Working with laid back cornfed Midwesterners. And our singing Japanese apprentice.
- Oh yes, we've got an espresso machine.
