Perl Developer and Business Owner? Remote Perl role in UK & EU

Company name: Perl Jobs by Perl Careers

Location: UK and EU Remote

Pay rate: Depending on experience

Terms of employment: Salaried employee

Hours: Full time

Onsite: no

Description:
Business ownership without ulcers!

There=E2=80=99s something to be said for the
heady sense of pride that comes from owning your own business. Of course,
that pride is likely mixed with a healthy dose of too-much-work,
too-little-play, and the ever-present fear of bankruptcy. If you=E2=80=99re=
 a Perl
Developer who wants company ownership without the glowing ulcer, read on!

Our clients run a job search engine that has grown from two friends with an
idea to a site that receives more than 10 million visits per month. Based
in London, all full-time employees are owners, because these job search
geniuses hold ownership as one of their core values. And hey, don=E2=80=99t=
 worry
if London is a tad far for you =E2=80=94 they offer a fully remote position=
 for
those within two hours of London=E2=80=99s time zone.

Of course, if you do live
near enough to the West London office to make the commute, we highly
recommend doing so. Between their rooftop terrace, bar, table tennis, and
chock-a-block social calendar, there is plenty of motivation to get out of
your flat and onto the tube. Did we mention the twice-yearly (once a
certain pandemic wraps up) global team get-togethers? Think offices from
three continents converging in a glorious mingling of accents and
awesomeness.

Here=E2=80=99s what you need to get onto this epic team:

=C2=B7 Perl pro
with at least three years of experience with high-volume and high-traffic
apps and sites

=C2=B7 A solid understanding of Object-Oriented Perl (perks if
that knowledge includes Moose)

=C2=B7 SQL/MySQL and DBIx::Class

=C2=B7 Experience
with unit and functional testing (Test::More) and Unix/Linux

=C2=B7 Git

=C2=B7 An
adaptable, flexible workstyle that meshes well with a remote team

If
you=E2=80=99ve got these skills, they=E2=80=99re willing to woo you with a =
competitive
salary, healthcare, an enhanced maternity/paternity program, ongoing
personal development opportunities, and a bustling social calendar that
provides you with as much connection as you want.

You could own a business
=E2=80=94 but why not join a team where ownership and play are both possibl=
e? Send
us your CV today and tell us why you want in!

Desired skills:
At a minimum:

    4 or more years commercial experience with web-based
Perl projects
    Strong grasp of OO Perl, preferably using Moose or Moo
=20=20

    Know your way around a Linux
(or Unix) system
    Experience using VCS, preferably git

with a great attention to detail

You=E2=80=99ll cause significant excitement if
you=E2=80=99re also familiar with any of:

    ElasticSearch, Solr, Lucene, or some
other heavy-weight search engine
    Happy to work with templating systems,
especially Template::Toolkit
