The importance of technicians in a project: So, are there technical in Spain?

Weeks ago he spoke at another post "where the hell are the JASPE." It was a post that provoked many reactions too-good-some criticism, as many reactions I received nearly 150 contacts, emails, phone calls and CV in this regard. It is curious that not only reactions over the Internet, but 5-6 people in my environment to work in other companies and knew for years have told me they want to talk to me about it and who are interested.

That theme, the look of someone who can lead the project Madrid.net I got a little parked by the monopoly we have had with the launch of Yes.fm last week and also because after publishing the post, I have literally "buried" in a mountain of applications for meetings, emails and CV with that now I could not do much because it's something that I do not want to delegate and I want to look carefully and personally since starting this week. I promise you a day early.

But if it's difficult to find young people and valid for a captain, is even more difficult to find technical quality of seniors to integrate into a project. It has always been a desperate, it is perhaps for this reason that when someone finds a valid and eager to learn and grow, as when I met our Chief Technical Jaume Riutort, you should try to keep it, and it will stack years , Eh, James?

Most of the technical staff complains that when working in a startup, or in an internet draft usually are little valued and charged for two drives, also have expiration date because after the initial development are not as useful; many times that, which is a recurring complaint of the technical staff is absolutely true and just always preferring to integrate into a multinational or a development company rather than a company website. The opposite is equally true that many technicians do not have sufficient qualifications and are not able to take responsibility. That is to say that it is difficult to find technical, but very complicated to find good technical level and resolve.

One of our partners commented the other day and for the development of their applications for Media Center had to bring a person ... from Australia to live in Spain! (it is a good job and pay very well!)

The draft Yes.fm we bet, and is not very common in Spain, for a complete in-house development of all our applications. That today's Internet was quite difficult to take that path and the vast majority of startups in Spain opt for other routes as companies outsource development work with freelancers distance, or even customize open source applications to save costs and require a profile Developer lower and faster. We, I think we can bear the cost of mounting a good technical team and will be a key feature of a service that will be in continuous development in the future as Yes.fm

Right now to draft Yes.fm have to go by hiring several people in a fast, that includes not only technical but also other profiles, the more common and easier to find people like Marketing, Sales Online Advertising and so on.

Comentábamos last Friday at a meeting to take weeks after trying the search Infojobs (do not know if maybe we should have also tried elsewhere, Do you think we should have done?), We get ½ page at planteábamos "El Pais" Quick to find people for the positions we need. Before doing so I wanted to publish this post, somehow I am disappointed to have to resort to paper for people to find an Internet company.

We look for programmers PHP / MySQL / Javascript. With expertise in programming on the following technologies: PHP, SQL, Linux, HTML / Javascript. Knowledge of version control systems (Subversion, CVS or similar), knowledge of Wordpress publication platform, cross-browser javascript libraries (jQuery, ExtJS, YUIm Prototype, etc..) Unix scripting (bash).

The experience is not a criterion, for example in our team there are people working for many years, and other leading 1 years working and who have neither race nor experience, and are cracks. For a novel, we prefer to value above all the ability to renew itself, curiosity, the desire to learn.

If you are the person we're looking for (or if you know a person adequate contact with it!) To think that we can offer good working conditions, work and a very attractive project and a good atmosphere. The work was played at our headquarters in Madrid.

This post, we'll dedicate it to someone Prisacom, who has commented 3 times anonymously, with Nick "disenchanted" and "anonymous" (and from the IP of your business, a little lack-of-view that, but good ... :-D) to talk to the technicians.

're Done, soon, but I did.
