They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery(apologies Moses) I dislike long emails...but once in a while we get a long email worth reading. This is worth reading. Do you love to write code?​Want to work smarter, not harder? Do you thrive in an work environment that enables you to work on exciting and challenging projects, day in and day out?

Are you an application developer who is savvy enough to deal with an intensively customer service oriented digital agency? We are that company.​We consistently deliver for not only long lived and well-maintained clients, but also our new projects.​They range from content deployment and management systems to mobile based work force automation. What we need from you:

Provable, quantifiable expertise as an application developer (code samples and/​or project descriptions) Provable experience working on web application projects (work history) Salary expectations.

What we don’t need from you:

We don't enjoy reading lists - especially not a list of the 50 technologies you know.​If your resume doesn't make it clear that you have focus on a specific web technology(s) then you're just wasting both of our time sending us your CV - and nobody enjoys having their time wasted.

If you are looking to be a company owner...you harbor entrepreneurial ambitions but may not have the resources to be one then you may have found the right place.

Where you will work: We have a great office in one of Nairobi's growing business areas, easily accesible 5 mins from the city centre with a very open floor plan. We dress down most of the time, but are always at our best in front of clients.​We are professional and the management team is very hands on and engaged with the work that is done. We try very hard not to require more hours that are required of anyone and we strive to work 8.30 to 5.00 pm every day with a one hour lunch break.​ That said, we're flexible and recognize that we all have lives outside of the office - and we also know that sometimes, especially when deadlines demand it, normal working hours just won't get the job done.​ When it doesn't, we act accordingly - and we show our appreciation when people step-up.​ We use our leave days and so will you, for your sanity and ours. If think that your that special talent we are looking for you, kindly send us your CV on guru@libertyafrika.co.ke
