Hiring a Programmer

What I Need Done: I would like to find an experienced Ruby on Rails developer to help develop a web based application that needs responsive design. The program is fully designed by a usability and design professional (UI/UX designer) and does not require any complex functionality that I have not already seen in similar applications. What I Will Provide: All of the design files in a nicely layered PSD format or forked out .PNG, etc. I will provide all designs, content, and images as well as full project management. Other Context/Requirements that Providers will Need to Know: Although the application is quite simple, I definitely want to work with someone who has excellent SMS & Email gateway experience along with Google Map and social sharing skill sets. If I find a developer whom I work well with, I have a roadmap to enhance this application for several versions. Specific Expertise that I am Seeking: Ruby on Rails application development experience is key. SMS & Email gateway experience. Great communication skills and a self starter are also critical. Development Process: I would like to complete a simple click-thru first for usability testing (done by me). Based on the test results, I may need to tweak the layouts and functionality. You may work with the UI/UX designer as needed. For completion of this project, please have this up and running on a development webserver I can access to test its functionality as described. Timeframe for Delivery: I would like to have this up and running in 5 weeks -- again a rather simple version 1 of this application so I don’t believe (hope) that development is going to take very long. The simple click-thru would be ready for testing in 3 week with finishing touches done shortly after that. *** PLEASE NOTE: Although, I have selected “Fixed Fee” as the default I would be happy to discuss an Hourly billing model too. *** How we will proceed: 1. You contact me if you are interested. 2. I will send you a simple 1 page non disclosure agreement that you will digitally sign on EchoSign.com. 3. I will send you a secure link to a dropbox folder with a very detailed video that walks you step by step through User Interface and User experience. Thank you!
