Tidal Labs - New York City PHP/JS/HTML/CSS Developer We're looking for an experienced PHP, JS, HTML and CSS developer to maintain a family of websites for our clients. You'll be making incremental improvements to the sites, responding to tickets, and also managing a team of part time employees there to help you. The sites are built on an easy to use proprietary CMS inspired by WordPress. Not everyone has the DNA for this type of job, and we want to make sure you're in a role that you can thrive in and enjoy.

This role is not good for you if: * You would rather spend your time concentrating on just one product full-time. * You're not happy unless you're innovating. * You don't like interacting with others or reading other peoples' code. * You don't like small, incremental changes and change requests from clients.
