Hey Everyone, hows it going?  Good?  Yeah, same here.

We're looking to hire another great web designer to join our team full-time in
our Boston office. The right person will have experience designing user
interfaces for web applications, have good typographical skills, a strong
foundation in design principles, excellent <abbr title="XML HyperText Markup
Language">XHTML</abbr> and <abbr title="Cascading Style Sheets">CSS</abbr>
skills, and will be as passionate about great design, semantic markup, and web
standards as we are about our Ruby code.

![''](http://images.thoughtbot.com/ui/2008-8-1-boston_1.jpg)The competitive
salary will depend on how awesome you are, includes medical benefits, 401k
eligibility, and relocation to Boston (if needed).

Our team works in a relaxed and educational environment. We use the latest web
development technologies, frameworks and techniques, and embrace both agile
development methodologies and a “getting real” project philosophy. We limit our
work weeks to 40 hours, stock the fridge with drinks and snacks, and provide
lunch on Fridays.

Did you know that in addition to being the at the seat of our nation's pants,
Boston is also the premier location for designing the web?! It's true, just look
at [these guys](http://webdesignworld.com/2004/boston).
