Stuff with the Perl Foundation. A couple of patches in the Perl core. A few CPAN modules. That about sums it up.
If you don't mind pair programming, test-driven development, Mason, Perl, no overtime and your choice of OS to develop on, you might want to send me your resume. If it goes straight to me, you bypass HR and go straight to the head of the line (and I might get a hiring bonus).
We actually don't care if you know Perl or Mason. We care about whether or not you are a good programmer (or have solid potential). You can learn Perl and Mason on the job. Check out our Web site to get an idea of who we are.
We're located in beautiful Portland, Oregon (near the airport, if that means anything to you).
On a personal note: I've worked for a number of companies and this is one of the best working environments I've enjoyed.
My email address above is a temporary, so get yours while supply lasts! Or something like that

As soon as the West slides into the ocean, we'll start having meetings to discuss whether or not it's feasible to maintain our current offices. :)

Actually, we might be doing that. We have a number of international data feeds and we've been thinking about reopening a London office (we used to have one), but I don't know when. Personally, I would kill to get back to Europe working for a good company, but I won't hold my breath.

I just checked and no, we don't. This might change if we get too desperate and can't find enough programmers. Sorry.
