Contractual Software Developer Needed to Build Dynamic Site Toolbar

Project description and need:
Dogster, Inc. is seeking a contractual developer to build and integrate a dynamic, HTML overlay toolbar similar to those on Digg, Facebook and other sites. The toolbar will be dynamic in the sense that content and height will change based on user profile, user status, current promotions or other product directives. The toolbar must work on all major browsers and properly layer over elements such as flash.

Developer must be extremely competent in HTML layers, browser-specific issues, AJAX as well as LAMP technologies (PHP, HTML, CSS, MYSQL). References and access to your previous implementations of similar functionality required. You must be available to work with a product manager and proficient at working from specs, mock-ups and project plans.

This is a contract position and not a full-time position. However, for the right person it could evolve to full time.
To apply:
Email cover letter and resume to the username “jobs” at our website’s domain of dogster.com.
Include several references, public examples of previous toolbar or overlay work and compensation requirements

About us:
Dogster, Inc. is a seriously fun company to work with based out of Potrero Hill, San Francisco that has been serving Internet goodness since 2004. We have a great team, highly passionate users and are very financially stable. Two of the founders are still active developers and the whole team contributes to the sites’ success and growth. While we think it would benefit both parties if you were in Bay Area and able to meet/work in our San Francisco office regularly, it is by no means a requirement. If you live outside San Francisco and solid references, lots of public, related projects under your belt we’d be more than happy to work with you.
