Hi everybody,
A new company called PhenoGeno is looking for someone to do some Ruby coding
here in Austin. The job post is attached below. The position pays $70 - $75
/ hr. It's contract with a path to direct-hire. And we're looking for folks
who can work full-time, but happy to consider half-timers.

As it says below, you could work from home most of the time, but we'd have
frequent face-to-face meetings.

If you're interested, please reply not to me but to Traver Hart:

Thanks for considering.

Best,

Steve
