We are looking for talented, detail-oriented web programmers who has a mastery in Python, PostgreSQL database, html5, javascript, CSS, Frameworks, Lighttpd and Web.py. If hired, you will be working for Educator.com. The job is a TEST project to test your skills. If you pass this paid-programming test, you will be hired full time. We will pay you $30USD/hour to code on various different programming projects. You must be able to deliver top-notch results in terms of speed and scale for a website under development. Test Project $50USD: As a test, you have to code a scrubber control for a html5 video player. It will contain the following parts: 1. Playing progress bar 2. Loading progress bar 3. Cue points in the form of dots 4. Tool tip showing a) time, or b) cue title, if mouse pointer is over cue point The cue points will be listed in an xml file (i.e., separately from the video file). Note that you do not have to code for the html5 video or its events, and need no knowledge of video coding. The playing and loading events will be taken from a simulated timer (which you will code). The tooltip must popup and move smoothly, with end cases taken care of (just like youtube player). The component has to be written such that it can easily dropped into an existing webpage, and the scrubber will display and work smoothly. Server-side code will be in Python, with client-side code in HTML5/CSS3/Javascript. No images are to be used for the styling. It must work in all modern browsers as well as mobile devices. The frameworks to be used are web.py for Python, SASS for css and Coffee Script for javascript. If you prefer other tools, please justify the reason for doing so. There is an additional database layer to be done in Postgres, for which you will be paid $30 extra, if you complete it. The data stored will be how much and where the user has clicked and dragged on the scrubber. It has to be coded to be able to take care of hundreds of simultaneous users of the scrubber. You have to decide on the database details required for the job. This is a test project to evaluate your abilities, in terms of overall coding efficiency, attention to detail and knowledge of best practices. The best candidates will be offered larger and more challenging projects with high salary pay.
I'm experienced web developer and I also have a web development company and I can work for you. add me on skype: var24dotcom
Regarding this skill test job, please don't use the html5 video tag or do any coding for the events. Please create a timer to simulate the load and progress events of a html5 video. You can add a "play" button to fire the progress events and update the progress bar. If you are truly a great coder, just attempt it and show me what you did. If you pass this test, we will pay you for writing the code for this and then hire you full time to code for Educator.com for much higher pay.
