interns and meebo

Got an itch for object-oriented JavaScript, scalable Web applications, and product perfection? Join us for the summer!

Meebo has pushed the boundaries of the Web by creating a Windows-like Web framework with JavaScript. We seek a JavaScript Intern with strong CS fundamentals who can describe the difference between the W3C and IE box models and has been known to have Venkman, Firebug, and the IE Script Debugger running simultaneously. We're not particular about the years of professional experience but a passion for Web technologies and optimizing the user experience is a must.

Responsibilities include:

• Work towards weekly and bi-weekly deadlines on the development of high-visibility, high-quality web products
• Work with product team to assess feasibility and priority of new features
• Develop debugging tools as necessary
• Assist in testing regularly scheduled releases
• Proactively recommend architecture changes and suggest new coding practices
• Collaborate with server-side programmers to optimize scalability and network efficiency
• Stay up-to-date with competing technologies.

Our ideal candidate will have:

• 2+ years of JavaScript software development experience is a plus
• Majors in Computer Science (or equivalent)
• Phenomenal debugging principles (and perseverance)
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
• Previous experience with DHTML, CGI, CSS, AJAX and other web applications
• Familiarity with web frameworks like Dojo and prototype.js
• The ideal candidate will be a bright, logical team-player, and in good academic standing
• Previous experience with web technologies is a plus but we are also impressed by highly-motivated individuals with solid CS backgrounds who are itching to try something new.
