Metro Analytics, a small firm in the Salt Lake area, is seeking a student with emerging skills in javascript, PHP, HTML, and general web programming skills.  Ideally a graduate student, but anyone comfortable in their web programming abilities could be selected. Our jobs are irregular.  Many weeks there will be nothing to do. Other weeks we may have a fair amount.  Most projects can be done at your convenience from your own location.  Could also include occasional tutoring of our staff or advice to help us connect with others who might be better able to answer questions or help advance projects.  We will pay $15-$40/hr, based on your level of experience on an honor system.  Basically freelance work that you can accept or reject, depending on your schedule.  You report the hours you invested for reimbursement, and if we feel good about the results we’re getting for the price we’re paying, we’ll keep sending you work!

Some of the projects we could use help with include:

·        www.StreetPlan.net        A drag/drop tool to help urban planners experiment with great streets!  Also includes Google Earth pluggin features. A lot more functionality planned beyond this initial prototype.

·        www.metroscape.net/wfrcapp/index.php  Dynamic mapping of future travel conditions.

·        www.InnovativeIntersections.com  Record of the coolest, newest roadway designs

·        www.MetroAnalytics.com  Just our website, but has a fair amount of programming.

If interested, please call or email Mike Brown at 801-860-2409, mbrown@metroanalytics.com for more details.  Be prepared to provide a short resume, GPA, and referrals (probably to professors or friends who can vouch for your skills and character).  Hoping to find someone who can be available for a few years, and maybe full time later if we have enough work.
