[consulting] UI Engineer needed

[Noah Mercer]

A client of mine is looking for someone to fill the contract-to-hire role described below. Since they'll be using Drupal as their platform I thought I'd post it here. The client is in Seattle and would prefer someone local but would
probably be open to remote work for a candidate that was otherwise a
good fit. The job description is broad because there are two components: A Windows desktop software application as well as the Drupal-based website. They're looking for folks with skills in either domain, so don't worry if you don't have any experience designing Windows apps (or any desire to touch them :-). If you're interested please contact jobs at twenty20corp.com or call them at 425-673-1695.

user interfaces, and a drive to work hard, then please let us know
