[dcphp-dev] [job] Web UI Developer opening at AddThis, the worlds largest sharing platform

Good morning,
I am not a recruiter, I am the hiring manager for the position listed below.  I am looking for a PHP centric UI web developer with strong javascript skills.  This is excellent opportunity for a mid level developer to jump start/re-energize their career.  I work with some of the most talented people I have ever had the pleasure to work with.  Anyone who joins this team will be challenged and grown in this role.  If you have the drive & talent, and want a chance to make your mark in this industry, this is the place for you.  We offer great pay and great perks (see the website.)  This is not your typical DC area job, we work in a fast paced - energetic - business focused environment.  Were a mature startup, with real revenues, A+ investors, and explosive growth potential. There are about 100 of us nation wide, 60 of us in VA.  Come join our numbers, you'll be glad you did.

You may respond to me directly (walton@addthis.com) but I prefer you work with our internal recruiter Dullah Nawroz (dullah@addthis.com).  This and other positions are located at http://www.addthis.com/careers#

Do a little research on our company, you'll read good things, though do note we just officially changed our name today from Clearspring to AddThis.
