PHP Developer
If you can get stuff done with PHP, there is a great future for you here at 3Crowd! Especially if you are a PHP ninja with experience writing any kind of proxy or other network service, then we have a great opportunity at an innovative startup. Over two-thirds of web content is delivered from caches and 3Crowd will rethink and disrupt business-as-usual for internet caching on a global scale. (And if PHP is just one more tool on your developer's utility belt, then all the better.) read more...
