Angry Monkeys

Good news everybody, Angry Monkeys is hiring!

The last few months have been a crazy time for Angry Monkeys, so much so that we’re seriously considering a name change to Crazy Monkeys. We’ve been so focused on doing paid work; we’ve completely forgotten to work on our own projects. We have a number of world-changing web solutions on the go, but just haven’t had the time to get them over the line. Heck, we still haven’t gotten around to building our own website! This is making our Angry Monkeys even angrier! So, what to do? Get more Monkeys of course!

We’re looking for talented, enthusiastic, experienced developers with a keen sense of what makes the web tick. Being a small company (well, there is only me), the role involves a whole lot of responsibility, and a whole lot of opportunity. This is a chance to get on at the ground floor of company that is truly going places (we’re actually on the 13^th floor for the superstitious). Most importantly, it is a chance to control the direction of your own future.

We won’t be offering a whole heap of cash to the successful applicant, because if that is what drives you, then you don’t have what we need. We need someone whose passion is developing cutting edge web applications and technical solutions to some pretty scary problems. We need someone with uber .NET experience, extreme JavaScript knowledge, top notch SQL Server design and development skills, and a heap of prior web development projects up their sleeve. PHP, Flash, Photoshop and Bow hunting skills are a bonus. We can offer ultra-flexible working hours, the opportunity to work from home or from the office when you choose, your own computer with big-ass LCDs and most of all; that warm fuzzy feeling you get from making a real difference.

All applicants will need to display a passion for web development, be able to demonstrate the ability to create cutting edge web applications, self-learn and most importantly, have a serious commitment to quality. We don’t create half-assed solution, and “hacks” are definitely out.

Please apply via e-mail to givemeajob@angrymonkeys.com.au including resume, examples of work and references.

Well, here we are, nearing Christmas and I’ve finally gotten around to putting a blog post together. Not that there was actually a blog until today either…. but let’s try and get past that. Angry Monkeys started about 3 months ago now, and today is the first day I’ve been able to take a breath. Not only because have I been ridiculously busy doing work, but because we just moved house, and I’ve been out with the flu. Yes, I can hear you all laughing at me for not having my flu shot. You can all chalk up one point for yourselves.

So now that we’re online, what do we plan to do? Not a great deal initially. The fact of the matter is that we’re far too busy to do much here. That’s both good and bad of course. Good, because being busy means I get to eat. Bad, because it means I barely have time to eat! But back to the question at hand. I’m hear because the future is looking fairly rosy for Angry Monkeys. We have several good clients on board who are keen to do more work with us, we have the whole business side of things sorted out (although our accountant has been less than enthusiastic with our documents!), and we’re looking at hiring in the new year. In fact, just between you and me, we’ll be putting an advertisement up this weekend!

So enough for today. I have other things to do!
