Language/company


Dear Systers,

Coming out of my conference the Internet Identity Workshop there is a new
project / company forming and they are very keen to have women
programmers/developers in the first wave of hires.  They are also committed
to cultural/ethnic diversity.
Since they are developing in a new language - you don't need to have
experience in "it" - you just need to have talent and the ability to learn
new things.

I asked them for a list of potentially helpful per-requisites:

Some experience with ruby on rails
Some experience with JSON
Some experience with XML
Some experience with HTML5
Some experience with semantic data modeling
Some understanding of the ideas related to the semantic web and giant
global graphs
If you are reading the list and thinking - I don't have "all" of those
qualifications...then read this before you decide not to reach out to learn
more - The Confidence Gap from this month's Atlantic.  TL:DR "Remember that
women only apply if they have 100% of the jobs qualifications, but men
apply with 60%!"

My blog has the listing - Rosie the [New Language] Developer - Where are
you?

Please be in touch with me if you are interested. I will connect you with
them.

Looking forward to hearing from some of you.

[Note the address for expressing in the opportunity is different then the
one this is sent from].
