SF, CA / Remote Possible but likely it will have to be in the US at this point. We pay competitive market consulting rates.<p>A Different Engine is looking to expand our contractor portfolio.<p>WHO WE ARE<p>A Different Engine is an interactive agency which builds advanced media applications for our clients. We've been focused on TV applications on Connected TV's (Yahoo Widgets, Samsung SmartHub) and Over the Top Boxes (Roku/Boxee/GoogleTV) but have been moving to doing more mobile work (particularly on tablets) and some traditional web (most of our web work is for web services which power out TV and tablet apps instead of consumer facing web apps).  This is a bespoke design and development business.  We've worked with CBS/NBC/Comcast/The UFC and others.<p>WHAT WE NEED
We currently have a few inbound projects which may exceed our current capacity so we're looking for a few contract folks to help bridge the gap. We tend to prefer local folks (SF, NY and we have some folks in Cleveland) though we will go remote for the right fit.<p>PRIMARY TECHNOLOGIES
Our two most pressing needs are for frontend Javascript folks and Android Folks.  On the JS side we do full Rich Internet Apps on TVs our main libraries are Jquery and Backbone.  On the Android side we actually have a few inbound tablet projects and may have some work on the new GoogleTV platform (V2).<p>When we do backend work we like Rails, we've played with Node/Redis/MongoDB - we think this may be a good stack for some projects, and we sometimes have to deliver apps in PHP. We're really technology agnostic. Because we do bespoke, project based development we can't afford to be tied too much to specific technologies. We use the best tool for the job when we can, and sometimes we use the technology we're told to use. Thats the nature of our business.<p>You can reach me at mike AT a different engine DOT com with questions or even just to chat ;-)
