It makes me smile how you corrected (i guess) the first we in their description to they, but not the mid-sentence ones.
This one reads esp. funny.

They have over 100 employees, but we strive to retain the ‘start up’ feel and culture

Hello all,

I have heeded the warnings and will do my very best to make this email as detailed as possible. I appreciate that vague emails can be very frustrating so I will disclose as I can without disclosing who my client is at this stage. I hope you can understand.

I have 2 clients looking for Ruby Developers.

Both my clients are based in London.

Client 1

One of the UK’s fastest growing private companies, twice listed in the Sunday Times “Fast Track 100”. It also ranked as London’s fastest-growing private company. They are paying based upon experience up to £50 for the most senior of people.

They have over 100 employees, but we strive to retain the ‘start up’ feel and culture. It’s an exciting time to be joining the tech team – you’ll have the chance to have a significant impact on the shape of a large number of internal and external systems, and there’s an opportunity to make your role within the team fit your particular brand of technical skills.

What they like...

●      Ruby on Rails (2.3 and 3+)
●      CouchDB
●      MongoDB
●      ECMAScript (and jQuery)
●      Test-driven development (of any kind)
●      Git (we like ninja-like skills here!)
●      “Big” websites (scaling sites to deal with significant traffic should excite you)
●      Agile/scrum

Who they like...

They want to employ people who

●      enjoy life in and outside the office;
●      work hard (and enjoy their work);
●      are active in the Ruby/Rails communities;
●      are excellent communicators;
●      enjoy having their ideas challenged;
●      are not afraid to tell us how we can get stuff done faster and better;
●      enjoy pairing;
●      care about web standards;
●      love simplicity;
●      aren’t scared of getting involved in develops/sysops; and
●      can be pragmatic (we love rocket scientists, but we like them to come down to earth when necessary!).

What they offer...

They’ll provide you with all the tools (Mac or PC) that you need to do your job well, and our tech team is moving into a newly-refurbished space early in the new year. We’re based in central London so there’s lots of opportunity to enjoy oneself outside the office – we like to think of ourselves as a very sociable team!

Client 2

This is a start up with aggressive plans for growth. They have received a significant investment and would be particularly interesting to any music lovers.
Our client is an electronic dance music fan community built by fans for fans. The founders of have seen the world’s biggest DJs around the world at shows and festivals in places such as Ibiza, London, Berlin, Amsterdam, New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and more. They wanted to bring the experience and love we all feel on the dance floor together in an online community. Our client serves as a one-stop destination for fans where they can access all their favourite content including tracks, albums, podcasts, radio, video, tickets, news and more. They are a retailer and maintain the largest catalog (over 3 million+ tracks!) of high quality downloadable electronic dance music (192MP3, 320MP3 and WAV formats). They also maintain the most comprehensive events listings for electronic music DJs.
They are looking for Senior Ruby Developers and whilst they have unfortunately quoted me “market rates” I estimate that to be up to £55K.

I hope this is of interest to someone and if it is not of interest to you or you are not currently looking for work please pass it onto anyone you think may be.

Regards,

David Roberts
